Boone was found this morning in his enclosure with a very inflamed rear leg/foot. He is not using the leg at all-and his inner small toe is also inflamed and pink, the nail is pretty much encapsulated frome the swelling. I’ve soaked him in warm water throughout the day, just to make him comfortable. He hasn’t eaten much nor drank or poopied. Im really worried, and he’s never had any issues before, he’s a very healthy guy. Ive attached a picture and a video. Any ideas friends?

Hello,

Poor guy, that is definitely some swelling. You mentioned that it just cropped up quickly?
It appears to be gout developing there. We can review your tank setup if you need, such
as the type/brand of UVB, supplementation, temperatures, diet, etc to be sure his setup is
all correct.
Is he active & eating well right now?

I have questions about bubbles on our bearded dragons eye.

So he’s gotten bubbles on his eye. We wiped them off and it’s only been twice in the last few weeks. Should we be concerned? No coughing or congestion. He’s very hungry and sleeps well. He’s 8-9 month range. His humidity is 30-40 day time and as high as 50-55 at night to early morning.
Should we be concerned?
Swordtail has been doing a whole lot of "Lizard yoga" lately
Currently trying not to stress over my anemic dragon....she is being treated, but I don't agree with her treatment plan and have been seeking out a second opinion from another vet. If anyone else has dealt with anemia, please let me know how it was resolved. I am losing sleep over this :cry:
Another post lol. My beardie does not like enclosures. Her tank is the kids room and she has created a nesting/bed spot in the corner. She will cuddle with my son but she know when the lights are out and the kids go to sleep, she literally goes to her bed like she is our 3rd baby. I love her. And to think, I never wanted a beardie lol
