Well, I have good news and bad news for the Millie report. The good news is that she is still making great strides toward recovery. When she arrived here a week and a half ago, she was so thin that she had a groove running down the underside of her tail along the tailbone that ran ALL the way down to the tip. Today she has NO groove at all! Her hip bones are still protruding, but not nearly like before. She is much more active, reacting to stimuli like a normal lizard, and even walking around and occasionally jumping against the sides of the glass cage.
The bad news is now that she is moving around the cage, I can see with frightening clarity the severity of her metabolic bone disease. Her limbs are not deformed, and as best I can tell she has no fractures, but her front legs are virtually useless and she can't use her front feet much at all. It's heartbeaking to see her paddle around the cage using her elbows to walk. Moreover, I know that there is no physical way that she'll be able to dig a hole to bury her eggs. My main worry is that because she can't dig she might not lay them at all. I am continuing with high doses of supplemental calcium, and an 8.0% UVB light with the hope that some of this damage is still reversible.
On that note, here's a visitor we had tonight. I may not live in collared country, but on steamy summer nights these guys (the warty ones 
) are all over the place
