I went to make my morning rounds and found one of my long nosed dragons laying on its back, when I turned it over it moved its front legs but not its back legs, it has so far not moved its back legs or tail at all.
It is alert and had a drink, is moving its front half with no problems. its breathing normaly
A few days ago I found my water dragon dead on its back, it was laying in the sun (outdoor enclosure) I think it was the heat that killed it.
Is there a bacteria that causes paralyzes?
The water dragon and the long nosed dragon both have been feed meal worms to suit their size, the long nosed has also been feed termites and the water dragon has been feed crickets
I noticed with both that their water bowels were dry, the water dragons had dryed out because of the heat, and I just noticed that the long nosed's water bowel had a leak in it, could constipation cause paralyzing?
Thanks
