So forever ago when we picked up Ivan from the mount holly pet store we saw an adult beardie. Well i visited them a few days ago and he was still there, in worse condition than when we last saw him. So we picked him up today. He is now called Winston and is warming up in a temporary 20L.
His condition is much poorer than we previously though, besides being filthy he is very under weight. The only fat on him his his tail and thunder thighs. The fat pads in his head are depleted and he has no beardie belly. The pet shop usually took ok care of the animals they had, but snakes dont need food every day like a bearded dragon does. He may not have been eating though, either way we hope to get some weight back on him.
Every one else is doing good, fat and happy. Tai may or may not be burmating. We thought he was and now were not so sure. We will be getting a 20 gal from a friend<?> or ex of Ace's. Ashe had borrowed a tank and she cant keep it anymore so we'll be picking it up. I think the 2 un-named itty bittys will go in that so Black Beard can have the 10 gal to himself till he gets bigger. So far nobodys missing toes or any nips of any sort. My itty bitty has also stopped arm waving :)
