Hello there.
I am new in the forum.
I needed advise and what to do with the juvenile beardie. I got it 2 days ago from a pet shop. I think its a girl. She looks like 5-6 months for me. They told me from pet shop that someone else had her and they didn't want her anymore so they took it back. I saw her and I wanted her she was so not moving and unhappy in that pet shop. She is soo quite and not moving around. I read a lot on what she may has but still not sure. I am hoping its not MBD. She is really eating but only hand feeding. She has no energy to stand in her hands and back legs to eat alone...she looks really lazy to move. I had her a warm bath yesterday I see her back legs are soo weak like there dead the muscles to move or something... she drink-ed so much water that I am sure the other people that had her, they had her really dehydrated and no right lights and cold!! I am thinking to tell that to the pet store, don't know what to do. I want to save her she is still a baby. I am sure she might has a brumation maybe? Or MBD hopefully not! or if she was in a sand before and she eat that and now she is not pooping either. She loves looking at me she let me touch her but she doesn't move much and pooping!! Please help me I want to make her active!! Only today I saw her moving more now little bit then yesterday. I am trying my best to rescue that baby from where she was before!!!:/
