It’s been a month wow. He’s still eating on his own. Greens are still a no go but he’ll eat bellpepper well unfortunately for him that’s a twice a week food. I need to give a bath only for his tail though..it’s messy. Since he doesn’t thrash around in the bath maybe he can stay for 10 minutes...

He already has MBD it just made life a bit harder as he grew up. Sure, reversible but it’s still there. That’s where arthritis came from, maybe not from MBD directly. It definitely came on with age. MBD is on the back burner for now it can and will show up if Im not up on UVB changes or have a...

Haha. Nope it will be pure hell, it’s fine though. Whatever is best is what I’ll do. I better clean the other carpet before he does crap all over it and will be hard to pick up. I have two so no problem. He actually opened his mouth for water calcium he knew what he needed to do. I dropped one...

Final vet visit, well maybe not so final. It’s not cancer. It’s a cyst. Happy it isn’t cancer, though a cyst isn’t better but hey better than cancer. They drained it, they said it looks like fluid no pus. I can’t remember when it started growing, at some point it did. They touched it and felt...

Thank you. He took collards very well when I stuck them in the side of his mouth. We’re not giving up as long as he keeps eating this way we’ll continue. I would leave the food but it would go to waste he won’t touch it that way. Im at my wits end and Im just so tired. Im still giving it my best...

Broly isn’t well. I am working with Tracie (the vet tech as people call her) so it’s all settled there. His fat pads sunk. As to why, it’s down to a few things, cancer or dehydration. I offer lots of variety but he doesn’t want to eat any of it but the favorites and I have tried to remedy the...

Geez, I haven’t been on in a month. Ive been just so exhausted. I don’t sleep well I wake up all night. I discovered sleep apnea... Now I sleep with a machine on all night and still tired it’s loud. Tom doesn’t mind it though. I then dealt with drama on a couple of discord servers when there’s...

Nothing crazy except a rare severe storm causing tornadoes coming through. Nothing too bad just water spouts instead. Hopefully you get the turtle but Idk if anything’s changed. Broly still does some gagging nothing in the throat but when he hurt himself back in June all that happened was...

I love Ninja Turtles. Broly has more days where when his beard is gray instead of black. He’s in some discomfort his beard isn’t swollen anymore. We have serrapeptase for him as he has arthritis and maybe that’s hurting him. Maybe he has more ok days than bad ones. Battling ants as they’re...

It’s never jet black just black. Something is bothering him and it sucks to see him this way. We can’t treat for anything that’s not there. UVB been changed so it’s not that. He’s still so active and will fight in a bath. It’s probably the beard being the way that it is. I thought strange he’s...

I have a hamster too she’s in a wire cage. She has at least 8” of bedding and the cage is not one of those tiny ones that companies think are great for hamsters. I got one that’s at least 600 square inches of floor space. She’s actually happy in there she comes out most nights so she’s only...

Still swollen beard but nothing there. No cysts or any type of tumors. He has started to almost army crawl with one arm. He can support himself with all four just walks really funny. I admit I forgot the serrapeptase oops. So he definitely has arthritis from early years with MBD. Beard we’ll...

I love One Piece. 8 1/2 years ago I had Dragon Ball Z in my head so Broly is the name of my current dragon. My next one will be Luffy or Zoro (I can’t remember how it’s spelled lol.)

Huh needed a new password for some odd reason. I KNOW my password but whatever. Broly has a URI. Ive taken steps to kill it off doesn’t explain the beard swelling though he is shedding. He’s not acting too sick at all really. He’s still eating and using the bathroom. I use the heater to boost...

Hi! I have returned! A few updates. Oh a newcomer hello! Broly’s beard swelling is going down after getting everything else ruled out. He does have a wobbly walk now. We had to downsize from 120 to 80 gallon. It was confirmed as Tracie we can do this. No high climbing logs we do however...

His beard is getting slightly less swollen. He did smack it again a second time. Since then, we make sure he doesn’t get out unattended (sometimes he escapes when it’s tank clean day). We have him in an 80 gallon. He was in a 125 but since he shakes when walks despite new UVB and the supplements...

He’s got arthritis from his early MBD years. He doesn’t move much and we’re starting him on serrapeptase for pain and can be used long term. I got info from Tracie that it’s good for pain, swelling and inflammation. As for his beard, well he smacked it a couple times on this box he LOVES to jump...

Sorry to hear about your computer issues. I don’t like to celebrate because nothing happens. It’s fine for me though. Tom is gonna have to find an opening in his busy schedule to fit Broly in. I told him, Broly’s jowl looks swollen/big. Now it could be nothing and his walking (has aggressive...

It’s warm and my birthday passed (yesterday) and we were broke but that’s ok bills are important. So we loaded all 3 dragons in the minivan and headed off to my parents house (4 hours). I had a friend watch our dog, cats and of course my troublemaker, betta fish. He’s always getting banged up...

Our pet store improved at least it’s reptile carpet the last few times. They’re still not using a heat lamp just the dim strip light..I can’t say it’s a uvb because you know how it is.
