Updates On Moo Booter Boy Maya

I have an update regarding my Booter Boy Maya. I have a lot of nicknames for Maya. He's my baby.
I noticed that he doesn't lay his elbows flat on the floor so I began to support them with soft cushions- very small ones that is. Seems to help him sleep soundly and better.
He ate really good yesterday! Proud of him. Pooped two days in a row in the bathroom. (He's trained. Doesn't like to mess his tank up.) I still have to hand feed him and he does 'put some weight on his front legs'. He may have strained, sprained them. I'm not sure. He doesn't climb unless he has to. And he will climb on his hammock. He has no problems climbing down. It's just up onto his saucer chair to his basking spot. I have to help him with that. I don't mind helping him. I may need some ideas for a special needs bearded dragon. Hammock's low to the floor of his tank. I have padded his box with a very padded pillow case.

You can use rolled up dish towels

I'll check some of them out when I go to Walmart. It's just when he goes to bed. He used his front legs to claw at me. Then stood up straight up. As if trying to climb on my face. He couldn't yet.

Update 2: He is standing on up his back legs to try to get out of his tank and to tell me he was hungry. Today, he sat on the counter and though I hand fed him, he supported himself. He supported himself today in his tank. He uses his front legs more often. I just hope he doesn't overdo the activity.
He is going into shed so that gives me a good feeling that everything is ok. He's glass dancing more often. He's on the milk thistle powder and kidney support powders, along with the powdered calcium powder and multivitamin.

I had a cat bed and he outgrew it. I gave him a barely used bed pillow that smells of me. He loves sleeping on a bed pillow.

My first beardie had one of those memory foam pillows that is supposed to support you neck and cradle your head. She would sleep in the little valley it had, she loved it.

I wouldn't let him sleep on the bottom of his cold tank. He gets cranky when he wakes up. So, I try to make sure he's on his soft pillow.

I don't know if I'm seeing this or it's just because I have corrected vision. I noticed his front legs are a little muscley. I don't know if it's because he was exercising his front legs. He's more active when he's not on the Serrapeptase. I guess tomorrow, I'll give him a small dose. I always give him a break from his liquid supplements.

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
