Bearded dragons!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Awesome! Keep us posted!

Are you using UV lights?
 
Yes i am. but now im short of one. cuz they are seperated. anyway, the small ones still not eating. temp is good, lighting checked, water, and still not. and its been a week plus already!
 
It will be de-hydrated,drop some water onto its nose to encourage it to drink (gator-ade diluted will help).The shaking will be MBD as already mentioned,it NEEDS a UV and liquid calcium put into it for any chance of survival.
 
You are using sand wich can be a real hazzard. Your lizard could be inpacted with sand and the simptons of that are similar to the ones your descriving. Also dont use mealworms, at least not for now, use small gut loaded crickets and dark leafys vegetables. Get rid of the sand, use kitchen paper, give your lizard a shallow warm bath to help him rehidrate and to help him expell any thing that may be causing a blocage and try to hand feed your lizard with some shreded leafys and a copple of fresh killed small crickets (cruch heads or put in the frezer for a copple of minutes, that will do it) and ad a bit of suplements to every food item. To hand feed him try to put very gently some food beetween its lips, he should start eating imediatly

Thats great advise. what I was going to say and then some.
 
Get the T-Rex Calci Drops and force feed it a few drops to get it's intake up, the Hydro Drops work great too at getting reptiles on the brink back into health.

That bottom picture looks like a sick beardie to me.
 
thanks guys! haha young beardies are a huge challenge. Im more of a turtle and other types of lizards and snakes guy. My most prized animal is a 20inch shelled common snapper:)
