With the lighting & supplementation you listed, I would have to suspect some sort of tumor or crippling illness like scoliosis or rheumatoid arthritis? I don't know if dragons can get either of those but a vet visit is definitely in order.



With that said,, don't rule out MBD without some blood work. These are living creatures and like it or not, they don't always read the same "fact of life book" that we do. lol Just because we can provide all the UVB, D3, etc. Does not mean that their individual body can process any of it.



Good luck

Please keep us posted.

Later.
