Broken toe? Calcium deficiency?

Hello, my Berdie Hades seemed fine when I took him out today. But when I was clipping his nails I saw that his toe seemed really out of place. Is this an emergency? He’s taking a bath now I’m trying to get him comfy.

I don't see anything out of place. Their toes are flexible and can bend in funny ways. BTW, baths aren't a necessary part of their routine, once in a while is fine if they are dirty or if they like to drink while being soaked. If he's walking O.K and there's no sign of infection he should be fine. :)

I also say: looks normal, not broken. I saw my dragon often moving his toes that way - not only them being positioned that way, but really moving them.

Hello,

It appears normal, but does look a bit strange. Can your dragon hold it straight?
Do you have a hammock that he could have gotten his toe stuck in it & injured it?

From what I can see he can’t but it doesn’t bring him any pain I don’t think. He might have gotten it stuck and hurt himself but I don’t know in what way.

Hello,

How is your dragon doing? Do you have a hammock in your tank that he could have caught his toe in?
This is a very common ailment, due to either a hammock injury or wedging it in between the side of the
tank & a rock.
