I asked and my mom said the vet confirmed liver failure with a blood test. I know my brother dusts the crickets with calcium. He gets worms sometimes but mainly his salad and crickets. I'm not sure exactly of the lights used. They followed the advice of a friend who has bearded dragons for years. He's been getting soakings daily for about a month now since the first vet visits and forced water daily. It hasn't gotten any better. Before that I think my brother soaked every other week.
He's gotten worse over the last several days. He barely moves and just does not look good. Yesterday my brother noticed he was having trouble breathing for a bit. He went back to the vet today and the vet advised that the time has come to put him down.Sucks. I feel bad for the little guy and for my brother.
