BEARDED DRAGON Info:
Your Bearded Dragon - The species, sex, and age of your chameleon. How long has it been in your care?
My bearded dragon is a female juvenile, she is about 10 inches long and about 60 grams which i know is light sadly.
Handling - How often do you handle your chameleon?
I handle about every other day
Feeding - What are you feeding your cham? What amount? What is the schedule? How are you gut-loading your feeders?
Roaches, supers, just started really pushing greens like collar greed, and the dark leafy greens that you can get packaged from safeway
Supplements - What brand and type of calcium and vitamin products are you dusting your feeders with and what is the schedule?
d3 about every week once, plain calcuim almost always, then vitamins about once a month
Watering - What kind of watering technique do you use? How often and how long to you mist? Do you see your chameleon drinking?
everything, sometimes baths, mist daily, now sense she is having mobility problems i have been mouth feeding her water through a syringe and have been supplementing reptaid.
Fecal Description - Briefly note colors and consistency from recent droppings. Has this chameleon ever been tested for parasites?
Today during a bath she took a large poop, which i am praying helps her get back her limb movement, the poop had a decent calcium deposit of white poop and then some other regular poop alone with urine
History - Any previous information about your cham that might be useful to others when trying to help you.
She was housed with another female that is totally healthy but as of today will be being housed alone due to her leg problem. She really was a healthy bearded dragon, just yesterday she was sprinting back and forth around her cage active as ever.
Cage Info:
Cage Type - Describe your cage (Glass, Screen, Combo?) What are the dimensions?
Visionarium about 4x2x2
Lighting - What brand, model, and types of lighting are you using? What is your daily lighting schedule?
8 point uvb bulb and a basking lamp which gets the basking spot at about 90
Temperature - What temp range have you created (cage floor to basking spot)? Lowest overnight temp? How do you measure these temps?
cool side is about 80 warm side is 90-92 during the day and drops to about 65-70 at night
Humidity - What are your humidity levels? How are you creating and maintaining these levels? What do you use to measure humidity?
humidity is low except sometimes when i mist them the cage gets humid cause there is low ventilation
Plants - Are you using live plants? If so, what kind?
none
Placement - Where is your cage located? Is it near any fans, air vents, or high traffic areas? At what height is the top of the cage relative to your room floor?
garage, elevated a little, a low traffic area except when im out there taking care of everyone
Location - Where are you geographically located?
bay area california
Current Problem - The current problem you are concerned about.
She is seemingly unable to place her legs on the ground and walk, like they cant get to the ground, the back limbs are worse than the front but all in all they seem pretty bad. She did as i said earlier take a large poop earlier and i know that can cause limb paralysis but I don't feel that is the problem. If anyone has any advice please help out. She is a high white line from bloodbank dragons if maybe anyone else has had neurological problems please let me know.
please help ill post some pictures when possible
