Hey all. I've been off the forum for quite some time, due to a busy schedule at school, blah blah blah. Finally have a reason that (fortunately or unfortunately) got me to jump back on.

I rescued a dragon earlier this year, maybe in October? I was at school when the dragon came home. I told my parents how to tell the difference and we were happy to learn that we acquired a girl (Ziggy)! I have another dragon, a boy named Munch, who's been around for 2 years now.

Mom sent me a picture and quite frankly, she looked quite weird. Then I got home for a weekend to see her and she was really thin, having a hard time functioning/moving around. She couldn't close her mouth entirely either.

When my family cleaned out the tank, they found about 50 meal worms in the critter country. She never ate crickets and never had veggies. She did have a bowl of water. This confirmed my suspicions of a calcium deficiency and the fact that she probably had been surviving on water.

Here's where I ask for help. She won't eat veggies, crickets, worms, anything on her own. I've been force feeding a chicken and veggie baby food mix, heavy on the protein and light on the veggies. I load it with calcium. She drinks water like a fiend. She's had the appropriate lighting (surprisingly) and I switched her over to tile a month ago. She actually has improved drastically and her color is coming back (she was super pale before). She's pooping much more regularly and they are looking a lot more normal. She's starting to move more/better and even starting to shed some parts of her skin. I honestly never thought she would make it this far. She's even starting to make gestures towards my other guy (separate tanks, no worries).

I'm worried she's never going to eat on her own. What do you do to start getting an animal back on that track?

Let me know about your experiences, ideas and thoughts! Thanks all!
