When we feel ill we sometimes look a bit green. When you're a bearded dragon lizard -known to be a bit green around the gills to begin with - you turn pale white when you're under the weather. That's what our pals Megan Fox and Andy Tinneberg recently discovered when their reptilian companion Gary was not feeling well.
Megan tells us they took Gary to a reptile veterenarian clinic. "He's going to be okay! yippy! We need to force feed him with calcium powder mixed with water... from a syringe! Picture that! haha.. we'll be feeding him like a little baby"
Glad your little guy is going to be ok Megan and Andy.
Update:
Megan tells scribbles: "I meant to thank you for Gary's post! He's doing much better... he's eating his calcium-ified crickets! We have to put crickets in a plastic baggie and "shake n' bake" them with calcium powder. it's hilarious, they're all running around the cage, pure white! I think it's easier for Gary to spot them too, so that helps."
