I have had a foster dragon for about two months. She is about 6 months now. She got picked on when she was little by the other beardies so she has a stubbed tail. Since she was picked on, my boss(a large scale reptile breeder and store owner) put her into the back room in a tank that had other beardies that got picked on. Jeff was going to keep this one as a breeder, so I decided that I would spoil her and get some weight and strength back into her. She was in maybe a twenty gallon with a bunch of other babies. I took her home and put her in my 50 gallon breeder with my other two dragons-who are about 9 months but are still about the same size as the foster. The problem I have had is that she isn't gaining weight(pretty much a constant 72g), isnt growing, and still isn't that strong or muscular. When you pick her up she just feels...flat. She is responsive and everything and I have the proper heating and lighting and food/vitamin requirements and several seperate spots for her to bask but she hasn't really been eating. She eats maybe 4 superworms a day and almost no greens. I'm trying other feeders but I don't know what to do. I am looking into getting this http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=19702
I am going to a reptile show today so I'll ask around. I'll see if I can post some pics of the dragon.
