Hello, this is my first bearded dragon. I believe he/she is around 2 1/2 3 months old. I got him about 3 weeks ago and I haven't been able to get him to eat consistently. Ollie ( assuming Male but unsure) was eating about 2 crickets average a day. I do offer fresh greens but not interested. I figured this was normal due to relocation stress. Then about a week and half ago he stopped eating all together unless I was holding him and putting the cricket with feeding tongs against his mouth. Starting showing signs of weakness and not really moving around so I decided to take him to the vet. Called around my area and finally found one. The vet basically couldn't tell me what was wrong. He measured him and weighted him and didn't seem to think anything was wrong but he will not eat at all now. They ended up giving him a calcium shot and maybe recommended I stopped handling him all together. Which I already have tried to not over handle considering he might be stressed. They also said my set up was good and correct temperatures and basically sent me on my way. Well as of today he wont barely move and seems to be unable to move his left side. Kinda like dragging his front and back leg on that side. I dont know what to do but he doesnt look good and I am so concerned. I'm very afraid that hes suffering or going to die and I'm trying everything I can to take the best care of him. Please help.
