    Exclamation sick beardie

    My sister's dragon has always had mbd we've given everything we can. He never walks he just drags himself. He hasn't gone to the bathroom in forever and only eats a little bit of greens everyday. Today while bathing him he stuck his tongue out and it looked horrible black fungus like stuff on it and it was fat. It looks terrible. I feel horrible for him. Life is a struggle for him lately. What should I do?

    P.s I am willing to put him to sleep to stop his pain....

    You need to see a vet. Also, can you name everything about his enclosure? What type of UVB, Substrate(Which he may be impacted if his back side is paralized and hes not pooping) and what you dust his crickets with.

    Come here little guy. You're awfully cute and fluffy but unfortunately for you, you're made of meat

    I agree, a vet visit is needed immediately. I will say, it doesn't look good.

    Sorry!
