[QUOTE="GojiBerry, post: 2028448, member: 117230"] I picked up a rescue dragon yesterday. The place I collected him from said he was about 18 months old and they weren’t sure of his history other than he’d been housed with another dragon and likely neglected. You can see from the photos that his leg has been bitten right through although it has now healed and he can use it. He is very wary of human contact and will handle a few seconds of touch before running away and cowering. I dread to think what has happened to him to make him this way. Breaks my heart. Am I right I’m thinking he’s marginally underweight? You can’t see his ribs but I can see his hip bones and his fat pads are depleted. Also, he’s very pale. Is he a particular morph or is that just his colouring or is this an underlying medical problem? He hasn’t eaten anything yet but I guess that’s not unsurprising. How long is it likely to take before he starts to eat? Does anyone have any tips on how to relax this little guy so he feels happy to eat and interact. (Getting a vet appointment scheduled when they open on Monday). [ATTACH type="full"]82768[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
