Okay I got a female Mountain Horned Dragon, maybe some people have seen me making posts with her in them. I need some advice. She is 4.5 inches from snout to vent. Skinny, most likely too skinny. I have started to nurse her with a syringe and a mixture of baby food with water. Should I stay using this mixture cause she does eat it. It is to the point I don't even have to coax her mouth open for it. Or should I add some vitamin dust or calcium w/D dust to the mixture? I am just worried, I want her to pull through. I haven't gone to a vet as there are not any close to my city (FYI). After 4 days she has only left one stool but, she has been dehydrated so. Please any advice would be much appreciated.

Wish I could get some assistance on here for Gaula I fear she is not coming around, nearly a week and still just sleeps all the time. My regimen of syringe feeding is progressing well and she appears more hydrated and like she has put on some weight, I am needing to get a scale though so I can weigh her, all I got atm is my eyes :roll: .

I wish I could help you, but I know nothing about them:( Bumping this up for you...oh maybe you could PM Tracy? Her user name here is Drache613, she might be able to help.

After arriving home I went to Gaula's tank as I have for almost a week. And found Gaula had passed. I miss you...

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
