Hey guys! Hades just got over an injury and I was looking at his legs. Do they look swollen to any of you or am I just freaking out? Excuse his shedding. Always super worried about gout.
I dont see any swelling of his legs - so unless someone else sees different I would say no gout-- but I do see his back bone to me he looks a little thin- anytime I can see the back bone to me they are thin- I would add some BSFL to his diet w/ some worms- super worms medium size--- butter worms and some silk worms - you can get the silks and super worms from here http://www.reptilianarts.com -- these guys are shipping out fast and I would add some dubias in there too --- I would send you to mulberyfarms but they are taking weeks to get orders out -- you wont be able to get the butter worms from reptarts but the other worms and dubias you can --- start adding those worms to his salad - you can get the BSFL from http://www.symptonbsf.com from here -- the silks BSFL and dubias are all great staple feeders- use as many as you want of the BSFL order large please and do not dust them -- w/ all the worms and him eating his salads you will have a nice diet for him -- here is a website for nutrition ignore the kale thing its a good staple feeder http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html

They look OK to me too. Sometimes their legs and fingers will swell a bit during a shed, which is clearly in play here. I'd wait until this shed completes and then check again. My guess is that the swelling will have subsided.

That’s what I was thinking. He just had x-rays because he hurt his leg - the vet said everything looked fine then. Just ended up being a sprain. I’m sure I’m just being paranoid haha.
