so just randomly looking around craigslist i came across 2 beardies that were being rehomed after being found in bad shape elsewhere so i grabbed them to try to bring them back to good health. so i know most of the basics and have already got them both eating and drinking but the poo female has MBD pretty bad, the male is in better shape and can scoot around ok for the most part (to weak to lift his body but scoots).
the female is a bag of bones and her right front leg is pretty deformed but far worse than that her jaw is pretty far our of alignment so im syringe feeding her (chowed down also) and managed to get a cricket chewed up. she can move around her tank atleast a little and after some food was trying alot more to be active.
the male seems to be in decent shape other than very low body weight and cant lift his body yet. hes already bobbing and bearding at the female lol.
their on high doses of calcium and uvb now and hopefully recovery strength. i know the deformities are permanent but any chance she will gain use of her jaw again? also she has trouble with her tounge it seems. kinda like chocking on it if shes laying a certain way.
