Miss Lucinda has been here for two months and sheโs improving daily! ๐ซถ๐ผ Lucinda was with her family for seven years until she ended up getting sick and losing all of her body mass after she stopped eating and became lethargic. When she arrived back in August she was stiff and she didnโt move a muscle other than her eyes for days. She had sunken fat pads and eyes and her beard was black. Those three physical signs in combination almost always means that we are riding the fine line of life and death with a bearded dragon. We thought that we would give her a comfy place to pass with love and warmth but after a lot of work she has beat all the odds and she is gaining more strength every day. After the first month she finished her antibiotics and she was placed with a foster to gain weight. It didnโt end up working out so sheโs back here to stay while we pack on the grams and help this gal feel her best. Sheโs been eating 10+ bugs every day and she climbed up on top of her wooden hide for the first time today. ๐ฅน Photo of the day she arrived in the comments! ๐งก Video of yummy snacks for dinner!๐ชณ

Iguana Transportation!
We want to send a HUGE thank you to Kat for making the 4 hour round trip to pick up this iguana and get him to us. He is in extremely rough shape and we will have more on that later, but for now we are so happy heโs here with food in his belly. ๐
