Hi everyone!
I’ve got a beardie with MBD and neurogenic atrophy who’s immune compromised. She clearly doesn’t feel good and I want to make sure she’s alright.
Her setup:
Almost 6 month old UV(it’s an acardia D3 12% so I’ll replace it at a year)
All temps are correct
Tile for substrate
Eats dandelion and mustard greens with occasional lettuce, dusted daily with calcium w/ D3 and multivitamin(she’s deficient)
Usually eats Dubias, Calci worms, horn worms, wax worms, butter worms, super worms, and mealworms but currently is not being fed protein as an attempt to make her eat salad willingly
My concerns:
I saw a photo of a beardie with ADV who had some body cavity full of fluid, and her stomach looks just like that photo!
One of her joints is so soft is feels like rubber and is swollen. All other bones and joints are 100% solid, but thin(as they’ve been since I got her).
She stopped eating for a few days but now is back on food.
Here’s some photos of her:
Fluid?
The swollen joint
Her other foot
Swollen foot again
In comparison
Her eyes seem fine. No more sunken in than usual.
Help? Thoughts anyone? Is a vet visit in order?
