as far as impaction goes, could he be impacted even though he goes regularly? I thought they couldnt go at all if they were impacted.
He moves around well... still willing to run across his cage for crickets, which is a good sign. He climbs up his branch to bask everyday... but comes down to sleep now... which he never did before. I haven't noticed him favoring either leg... and he's eager to come out of his cage and chill with us like always... but he just seems so depressed when hes in his cage.. I dont know if this is from him being spoiled and always wanting to be out, or if this is because of his back...
As for the calcium deficiency in early development.. could it take this long for that to show up? He's six months now... He has a great appetite, but has always been a small dragon. He's about 13 inches now, but when I received him at six weeks he was about 4.5.
I'm going to make him a vet app. Its just a matter of getting the funds together.. thanks for all your help guys! Ill keep you all posted.. and please let me know if you think of anything else.
When i go to the vet what kinds of tests should i ask for? Will general blood work cover all the bases, including MBD, tumors, etc?
thanks again,
Liz
