Bearded Dragon Underbite

Not open for further replies.
When I got my Beardie from a family friend, she seemed to have a bit of an underbite. She was kept in bad conditions and wasn’t given Any calcium powder or the proper insects.

I have had her for about a month now and she’s got a 10.0 UVB light as well as a CHE light for her basking spot in her 65 gallon tank. Her temps are 78 on the cool side and 92-102 on the hot side. I feed her twice a day with basil, baby kale, carrots and occasionally fruits as well as either superworms or red wigglers. She’s give calcium powder four days a week. Her underbite seems to have gotten worse.

Is there something I’m doing wrong? I know this is a sign of MBD and I’m worried that I’m doing something wrong. I don’t wanna cause her any pain or suffering.

Hiccup he is 6 and Blaze is 4
The tube light is a T 5 or a T 8 --- and where in the tank is it? Look on the bulb it will tell you brand and bulb please - the difference between the 2 is distance and placement for them

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
