I just adopted this little guy and he is so dehydrated and needs uv so bad. this is how I got him. im planning on getting the usb in a new thing with a reflector but also mount it inside his enclosure. Now I don't know if this thing was built for a beardie because there are no ramps to even climb the levels? and also the rocks scrape on his belly when he moves around and he cant even move around I've had to catch him a million times. There is tile on the bottom. but I am so confused. do I attempt to take the whole thing apart? do I find ways to build him a ramp? do I lay reptile carpet? please help he is in need of so much care and his environment is hindering his health.

Are you able to take all that foam fake walls off and just open it up to just have the walls and floor. Get a small dropper of some kind and drop water over his nose to get him water asap. If it were me I’d scrape all that stuff off the walls and leave the tile. What uvb are you using? Here’s a link to the best uvb on the market.

Hi there, is Klitschko named after the boxer ? [ I know there are 2 brothers ] . I agree that you should make more room somehow if you can. Is he able to get around O.K because scraping his stomach isn't a problem unless he's suffering from MBD and in bad health.

Yes he is! They also survived Chernobyl. thought I would give him a strong name. he kind of struggle because the ledge is so small he rolled off of it earlier so I put him on the bottom. I don't think he has MBD but I think that if he would've stayed with the past owners he would have because he came with prescription proteins and vitamins for MBD.

Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
