I guess you can say I rescued an approximate 1 year old BD last week and I'm trying to do my best knowing nothing about them. I have another thread going here in the Health forum about this little guy, but wanted to make a different thread to talk specifically about MBD. He obviously has it, makes me mad because I know he was so improperly cared for and I'm really sad that he has lived the way he has. Anyhow, does this look like something that is reversible? Or does the hump in his back indicate that he is on his final days? I would like to believe that the hump will be there forever, but that with proper care he won't get any worse. Being new to this whole caring for BD's is a new learning process for me and I believe that I am on the right track - UVB light, calcium with D3 and calcium w/out D3. Sticking to mainly questions about MBD, is he in any pain with it? He has no twitching, just the hump in his back. He does move around a little, he gets off his basking rock and yesterday went over to the cool side of his tank. Will he just always be like this?
