[QUOTE="franklinsbiggestfan, post: 2012687, member: 117195"] I know that this may seem to be an odd question, but I have noticed my bearded dragon being a bit more lethargic lately. She just went to the vet and underwent parasite treatment. I've noticed her spending more time in her hide and laying down. After her parasite treatment she seemed to be a lot happier. She was eating better and exploring more. However, just yesterday I noticed minute twitching. She had previous signs of metabolic bone disease leading to an underbite. For this reason I have been giving her calcium with D3 every day. I was worried that her twitching was a result of MBD, but after reading a few things it seems that her lethargy could also be a symptom of hypercalcemia. I wasn't sure how you can tell the difference? She originally had a coil UvB bulb, but recently I got her the Reptisun 10.0 25W strip bulb. Side note: She is also currently shedding. I am not sure if the lethargy could be related to shedding. It just seems a bit odd because she has not always acted like this during a shed. [/QUOTE]
