Hello,
Poor guy, it is definitely a birth defect. However, we have had numerous people here who have
had dragons pull through but it will take some work.
Can you please post a few pictures of him/her just so we can see what we are dealing with, it
does help. Thanks.
Also, instead of just water & calcium, let's try getting some substance into him. Have you tried
hand feeding him any tiny phoenix worms, etc or not yet? If that is not going to work, you can
get some organic chicken baby food & some organic squash or sweet potato baby food to try
& get into him. Also, a small pinch of bee pollen too, for help with his immune system. Are you
keeping his tank around 80 or so overnight to help out his immune system also?
Please review your tank setup with us too, such as the type/brand of UVB lighting, temperatures,
supplementation, etc.
