My female Black/White has recently slowed down a lot, sleeps a lot, and will hardly eat. When she walks, she is very clumsy as if its painful for her. Could this be beginning MBD? If a lizard gets MBD, what does a vet do for it that I could not already other than diagnos it? Do they have a special treatment?
Best regards,
Mikal
how is it sluggish with its back legs? check your temps ambient should be around 80 and basking should be about 115. if it has mbd the vet with give it a calcium injection.
Sluggish, lazy, and lethargic altogether. All legs move overexagurate as in she steps real high and slow as if in a little bit of an ache. Ambient temperatures are 83-90 (I'm in Vegas) and basking is at around 120. I use Repti-cal calcium and the vitamins that coincides with the calcium in turkey mixed with veggies. All my others are fine and healthy, moving around.
Best regards,
Mikal
