My bearded dragon is walking on his wrist!! HELP!!!

Posted by Jenny on December 08, 2001 at 05:44:23:

I have a 6 month old dragon...he is about 17 inches. Today I noticed that he walks on his left wrist. It just seems to natually bend that way. He still runs around and eats well.

Could it be MBD? I have a UV light, and I suppliment everything he is eating. He gets crickets, mealworms, waxworms, and veggies. He has a basking spot and lots of room to run.

Could his wrist be broken? I was comparing his other hand and they don't look different. His left hand isn't swollen...it just has more ablity to bend at weird EXTREME angles. I figure he would be limping if it was broken. His left hand and arm doesn't have any cuts on it....so it couldn't have been bitten by another dragon. He is the largest dragon in the enclosure.

What am I doing wrong?

What is wrong with him?

Please help,

Thank you.
