bearded dragon sick

willis1234 Feb 14, 2004 02:56 PM

we think that my friends bearded dragon is sick. We think he has IBD, but were not sure. The bearded dragon sort of has trouble walking and is always tilting his head to one side. Please help.

sounds like stargazing to me. Not uncommon in BDs. Nothing to do about it either. Sometimes it goes away but usually not. I have 2 that are growing and happy and it doesn't seem to effect them adversly. I have one other rescue that had it but it went away by itself.
