I have an old netted dragon, she's been with me for a few months and aside from her calcium deficiency (which I'm sorting) there is another issue.
She has been very bloated the entire time, it was suspected that she was gravid in the beginning but it's obviously not the case. She hasn't eaten in weeks now, has recently lost the use of her back legs and I've noticed is excreting a sort of yellow mucus every day instead of poo (still isn't eating, aside from the liquid calcium being given).
She used to be quite content shuffling around but recently I can see she is struggling. I don't think there's much you can do for such a small lizard but I'd like to know if anyone can identify the problem, or give a rough idea?
