folds of skin

louis6 Jul 18, 2003 08:43 PM

do folds of skin around a juvi. beardie's mid section mean it is dehydraded or underfed (dought it)? How would you hydrate a beardie, because it wont drink from a bowl. I dont wanna spray him because it may stress him out and undue some taming steps I have already taken with him.

Im sorry, I cant spell tonight.

Wrinkled skin is a sign of dehydration...... misting or soaking in a bath with help, but getting him to drink it is best in a tub or from misting off the glass.

I am a little concerned.... about the not wanting to mist him to undo training...... your spraying him with water to correct some action you object to?

What is this beardie doing that you need to correct and why use misting for it when that is something that is so vital to them?
