Hello,
We have a baby beaded dragon, about 6 weeks old, his name is pudge. His legs suddenly stopped working properly. They are not swollen or spongy. He can sort of grip but it's very weak. He scoots on his butt and walks on his wrists. Or just lays with his legs all under him. He can move if he wants too and seems light in cooler still but he lets us turn him over which is weird. He has healthy poops every day. He gets salad and 4 or 5 small dubia roach nymphs a day. He won't eat many. He had a full shed about 2 weeks ago. He's already grown since we got him. He has a regular heat lamp with 150w. plus a 100w inferred one and a night heat lamp and a 150w uvb light. Hes in a 4 gal breeder. He usually uses every inch of that space. All his food has calcium powder on it. We give him water daily. He's had a few baths. I just don't know what's wrong. He's getting weaker but still trying to be his active alert self. Today he stopped eating. Nobody has any ideas. Is it mbd? Impaction? Nothing seems to fit. We are taking him to the vet Saturday. It's the only time the exotic vet can see him.
