Hi Everybody,
I got a bearded dragon just over a week ago. She is supposedly a juvenile (thought to be around 7 months). She seems very healthy, eating lots of crickets, however, not as many veggies as I would like.
Problem is she has a really saggy beard. I was reading a book about beardies and it said they can develop goiters. I am worried that she either has a goiter, or something stuck in her throat.
She is pretty active and adventurous, lots of tongue tasting. As mentioned she eats tons of crickets. I dust these crickets in multivitamins and calcium every feed, as she is still a juvenile. She is fast on her feet and moves around well. I'm just worried something is wrong with her healthy because of her saggy beard.
I would really appreciate any advice. I will attach many photos.
Best,
Jon
