Hello, so I rescued a adult bearded dragon who is about 18 months ago in January. She is in really rough shape and she went to see the vet a few days ago. He told me her lighting, heat, environment of her cage was absolutely correct. He said she did indeed have metabolic bone disease (she is on prescription calcium drops now) however there are other issues he rushed through telling me on the phone so I was hoping somebody could help me decode this.
