I posted regarding her earlier this week, she's new with us, a rescue.. She stopped eating for the last two days.. I will post a pic..
Hello, we have a new female dragon, we got her on Dec. 31st.1 years old. She was in poor health when we brought her home very skinny. We noticed she had no uvb lights in her terrarium as well as no heat bulb.. She was kept outdoors.. We basically rescued her and two of her siblings. She came home we got her temp correct and she started eating, about 17 to 20 crickets daily and plenty of collard greens, carrots and butternut squash. Normal bowel movement. She has a slight slant in her lower jaw, she stopped eating yesterday, she had only 4 crickets yesterday but became uninterested. No greens, today no greens, 2 crickets. She is half the size of her siblings, 12 inches they are close to 20 inches. Any suggestions. Thank you, concern parents..

wish I knew more about MBD but I know others on here do so I'm hoping they will chime in... I believe calcium needs to be given, I know the lighting is even more important for her..
I do think a visit to a reptile vet would be beneficial to get her back on tract and check for parasites

Sorry, I placed this in the wrong area and not sure how to delete it. Heading over to health.

If ever you post in the wrong topic heading, rather than starting a new thread in the right topic, just send me a message or Canicke and we can move it to the proper one.
