    Gout? my lizards foot is swollen and his toes are messed up!

    actually he jsut moved and the arm is only light brown underneath. the one toe that looks as if its broken( im positive it is) is almost at 90 degrees from the other toes, im sure theres no saving that paticular toe. the other toes appear to be straight enough but they are swollen as is the foot.

    hey, that was really helpful, thank you. possibly he could have caught his foot in the hammoc thing. its suctioned to the glass so theres a gap. im not sure what kind of uvb it is i dont have the box anymore. the only supplement ive given him is the dusting of calcium powder on crickets.
