Stress marks/Cranky lines?

[misslacie788]

I rescued a dragon 2 weeks ago and have taken him to the vet, he checks out just fine, coccidia a tiny bit high, due to relocation stress. I went over my viv in another post with a mod and his viv is perfect, if there is such a thing. I didn't know anything about stress marks until I was browsing topics. Norbert has them ALL the time. I wonder how about how long it would take for him to adjust and not be so stressed out????? Anyone with experience in this?

Hi there,
Dragons often take a long while to settle down in their new homes, especially if they are rescued and have been misstreated.
I rescued a little boy two weeks ago and he still has stress marks 80% of the time. They dont worry me as I know he is still adjusting. I dont expect them to fade until New Years.
Continue to provide the proper care, diet and when you begin to bond together they will fade.
Ive learnt that rescues cant be rushed!
