Update on Tosha.

(Or the lizard that's been force-fed for a couple of years.)
Well, after taking her to the vet, it turned out that she is in a pretty good shape. No worms, very fit, no MBD.
However, it did turn out that her eyesight was lacking. Her pupils do not change with light levels, and she often bumped into things when she wandered about (bump,lick. bump, lick.). As the vet had no experience with sight issues in beardies, she's offered to reccomend me to a more qualified person, also mentioning that there is a large chance that there isn't anything we could do.
In short words.. I'll continue to take care of her as I have. Force-feeding dark greens and a bit of dry beardie food, letting her out to run around every day. It probabaly is something age-related. (How do you tell age in reptiles? Her scales look a bit more shrunken than they used to, but other than that...)
