Metabolic Bone Disease?

wingedangel · Feb 19, 2017

Hi guys,

Today I saw my beardie lying down with his left hand to his side but it was flipped so that his palm was up. A few hours later he went to sleep like that. After a google search (bad idea) it sounds like it might be MBD. This is really freaking me out & I don't really know what to do. I can give you full set up info in the morning but any advice would be greatly appreciated. We've only just spotted him doing this today.

Is he walking like that or just when laying there? I wouldn't be concerned if he's not walking on them like that. Sometimes they like to lay around like that and scare us. Just make sure he's getting the right amount of calcium and your uvb is not too old and proper distance.

He appears to only lie on it when he's resting or asleep. I'm home all day today so I'm going to keep an eye on him & see if he walks on it like that too.

Hello, could you please give us a complete run down of EVERYTHING? Anything you can think of.

Also, if you could post some pics that would help: https://www.beardeddragon.org/useruploads/ mThen use the XIMG to attach pics to your post.
