A Sad Bearded Dragon's 1 Month Improvements!

Рет қаралды 514,788

5 жыл бұрын

Last month, I drove 500 miles to pick up some animals, which included this bearded dragon that wasn't in the best condition. Many layers of stuck shed, undernourishment and lethargy. Definitely not the worst things we've dealt with, but still something to be taken seriously! Today, I go over some of the very positive changes in this young bearded dragon.

For each new video he makes, it sounds like he will own a rescue and rehab facility much bigger than the one he has now. Although he doesn't use a lot of complex words and terms for how he diagnose the issues, his description is enough to make the one listening understand the overall evaluation. He likes to keep everything in "laymen" terms yet also very professional at the same time; a doctor that you can understand their handwriting.

Keep an eye on that foot for swelling! It could possibly be some joint issue like gout. I personally had a beardie with this disease and it’s really debilitating.. but I don’t see much swelling, so what I think happened is he possibly had a break or dislocation that has since healed. With it now being healed in an improper placement, that may be a comfortable way to keep his foot. The more probable reason could be from the stuck shed. He could’ve at some point had circulation cut off to that hand, and had permanent nerve damage to that hand, thus making him sort of carry it oddly. Whatever it is, it doesn’t look to be much of a bother. Keep doing what you do!!

@Call-me-Al 5 жыл бұрын

Worst part is that a minority do have light bleedings while pregnant, it isn't a period just vaginal bleeding. And of those some even bleed regularly making it seem like a period... So if your period is normally light it can be difficult to tell the difference. And this is one of the several factors that can contribute to women not realizing they are pregnant until they give birth. I guess it's the only upside to being a heavy bleeder :( Can't mistake vaginal bleeding for a period if you're losing literally deciliters of period blood normally.

Alyssa Hi, am looking after my daughter dragon. Am a senior and was freaked out by the creature. Slowly we have become good friends.i even feed her live worms, me of all people. I call her Princess. And she is so comical to us. Expensive to set them up. But once the unit is set up, it’s easy to maintain. Our is very calm and closes her eyes when we pet her. It’s been a learning curve for us. It’s a female and had 30 egg which were not fertile, so no babies, that was shocking. I think eventually I’ll be able to pick her up and carry her about and bath her. I almost want to keep her. Me, who gets creeped out super easily.

When I got my gecko from her previous owner she had 5 full on layers over her face,skinniest tail in the world, lost all het toes due to the stuck shed. Shes doin alot better now tho. Now she shed the first day all in one piece. Eats like a champ, but still terrified of people

@Tinyvalkyrie410 5 жыл бұрын

My gecko was a lot like yours, skinny, on calci sand, almost all toes gone, regrowing tail. The owner said he was about 11 years old and he lived with me for over 10. It took him a little while to be comfortable with handling, but the last several years he loved it. He would hang out on my shoulder, loved baths and loved his neck and the base of his tail rubbed. That said, he never had a normal shed, and had difficulty tracking and striking prey. Sadly, I lost him last month due to a tumor in his belly. I just wanted to thank you for rehoming your critter, and it reminded me so much of my story.

Many years ago, I was out with some friends and we went to some random guy's house. I got lost on my way to the bathroom and found a 10 gallon aquarium with 2 adult beardies in it. 1 was a skeleton, and the other was so emaciated and cold it just laid in my hand - missing toes and tail. Gave the guy like $20 to take it. I'd had snakes, but not lizards. I nursed her back to health with the help of a local reptile shop and rehomed her after she improved. I wasn't in a big enough place to house her. She was so chill and awesome. Your videos are making me want to help another beardie in need and keep it this time. I don't need anymore animals, stop the madness, Alex.

I'm really glad I found your videos before I got my beardie. I was always worried that I'd accidentally mess up their growth somehow when I eventually got one but she's about 6 months now and she's been doing great! No MBD, eating all her veggies and bugs - the only fruit she likes are kiwis but those are too acidic for a daily food - and just doing great! I've always wanted a beardie and your videos definitely gave me enough info to have some confidence in my ability to make sure she could grow up happy and healthy.
