Failure To Thrive Hatchlings

[Tangerine Crest]

I'd have to agree with Saille, some of my friends breed bearded dragons. I know they don't relate to cresteds in anyway but I do see a commonality in malnourished females of any reptile species. That is, when females are malnourished, a lot of the babies come out without fully developed organs, which ultimately die after refusing food for a couple of days. The babies can also come out with MBD. I hope some of the veterans can touch up on this, but I'm sorry that you keep losing cresteds. It's good to see however that you care, good luck on finding help!

Being so fish minded as I am... what kind of water are you misting/giving your colony of lizards to drink?

[Styx]

Saille, that's the only thing I can think of, really.

Tangerine Crest, no. These are from some of the most well known and reputable breeders on this forum, they are not the kind of people that would feed them improper food or not feed them enough.

Belle, RO (misting) & bottled spring water (drinking). I bred fish for three years, so I understand your train of thought.
