I don't know what to do. Stopped by the local reptile shop for a look around this afternoon. While I got Kang there, they are very inconsistent in their care, depends on who's working or not, and they have a lot of rough looking adult beardies that people have dropped off. Many with MBD, although they are active and alert, and at least getting the UVB lighting and proper food there. What I saw today, though! A woman apparently brought a dragon in specifically to be bred, then take home again. The dragon was undersized, maybe 15 inches long, MBD underbite, bony and looked like her tail was broken (maybe healed, or not) at the vent where there was a bony hump, and the tail dropping at almost 90 degrees from that hump, listless, a dragon in need of a lot of vet care, not a dragon that should be bred by any stretch of anyone imagination. The store apparently had one of the guys tell the woman over the phone to bring the dragon into to be bred. When she brought her in, no one apparently has the guts to tell this woman they won't do it, and someone had put one of their MBD but very active males in with her. What do I do, what can I do? I'm sick, thinking about this poor dragon.
