I have a 6-7 year old bearded dragon that I got in Dec of 2021 from a very neglected situation. He was under .1 kg now he is .39kg I have to force feed him vegg slurry and water. He had tail rot that was removed on 2-15-22 because he was too weak and underweight for surgery. He also has gout that keeps him from walking. He may take 2 steps of that. I have to usually move him or carry him around. He was voluntarily eating the veg slurry and water off the tip of his nose now he isn't. He maybe eating 5 dubia roaches and 2cc of veg slurry a day and about 1cc of water per day. I also think he has lost a significant amount of weight since we went to the vet 8 days ago he will however eat a few dandelion greens and flowers a few times a day maybe 3-4. Is that even enough food and water for a bearded dragon? Basking, uvb, humidity and temp are all correct. He generally does not leave his hammock. Looks like he maybe a little dehydrated now I do soak him everyday now as well as trying to give him water multiple times a day and a few drops of Pedialyte he does get his calcium and vitamins. Vet cannot find anything wrong with him now other that gout.
