Hello,
My beardie Maxamillion has settled in great, he has a fantastic personality, and loves going for walks.
This past walk, I noticed his left front (or back, I'm not sure) was limping a little.
I discovered he really doesn't like to climb, probably because of the dismal conditions he grew up in, so I adjusted his enclosure to have smaller height variants... in other words, he didn't fall off of anything.
I'm beginning to think his limping is being cause by overly-long nails, which I have trimmed since I got him and are kept at a short length, but it seems his previous owners never did and I don't know if it affected the way he walks?
I'm also concerned about his lack of shedding. I've had him for four months now, and he hasn't shed. He's six years old, so I know he won't too often, but I'm pretty sure lack of UVB stunted his growth as a juvenile so I was really hoping he's pick up the pace with better lighting and food!
Thank you!
