This Turtle Hasn't Had Lighting Since 1992 - 3 New Neglected Reptiles!
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 08. 2024
- Today, I share three animals with you! A leopard gecko, bearded dragon and yellow bellied slider - all of which are suffering from metabolic bone disease. This is an irreparable, non-contagious condition that affects many reptiles who are fed poor diets, or given incorrect, or no lighting. The yellow bellied slider, for example, is over 3 decades old and has gone years without proper care, leaving him with a distorted and warped shell.

@@jacobmiller8631 TWEET ME YOUR UNIQUE REPTILE EXPERIENCES AT TWITTERDOTCOM
@@GoHerping such as? lol
No Twitter , I almost gave my beardie mbd , bought full spectrum the pet store recommend. After a month he has was falling of branches and not targeting his food. Freaked out got on the forms (before youtube days) got him the right full spectrum , bounced back with a slight kink in his tail and maybe a little smaller , he's 11 now
poor guy looks like a burger
big mac expectation vs reality
LMAO this comment caught me so off guard
Hahahah
I feel so guilty for laughing. But at the same time, it caught me so off-guard, I just had to... :(
GoHerping
Holy shit I feel awful for laughing at this
Alex : “he’s a weird beardie.”
Me whispering to myself alone in my room: “a weirdy beardie”
Bruh
Totally called it Cali!
Beard is weird😂
Machine Gun Beardie
His beard is weird
I was born in 1992, that turtle's been neglected for my entire lifespan. That's harrowing.
Damn that sounds so sad
I was born in 2000, so this turtle has been neglected longer than I been alive. That shit is crazy to me
I bought Eno from you! The little leopard gecko, hes such a cute lil guy, and for his disability hes quite agile. Hes had two sheds since he arrived and is doing great!!!
Thank you so much for giving that animal a good home!
Awesome!
did u get an x ray
So glad that little fella is doing okay-ish. He is super cute! I can’t help but think though that all the hunching and swerving he has to do when he walks would make his back hurt.
It's wierd how you can say something you did and get likes.
Pro tip:
If your slider be lookin like a wobble toy instead of a fun slide you're probs doin something wrong. Please don't turn your slider into a turt burger.
Well said
*S n o r t*
Y’all are going the hell
But so am I for laughing at this
I was thinking that if someone takes him in or has, why not make all his things concave? If you make his basking spots and ramp concave then it should help him a lot more in getting on things and walking up ans down his spot!
@@mariawhite7337 you mean like a divet for his shell so his legs can touch the ground properly? You'd have to make sure the bottom doesn't get trapped at all though.
"This turtle has literally been neglected since before you were born"
poor scaly boy. This is why people should just start with isopods, it's pretty hard to mess those up
Huh?
@@2sef865 Bugs. It's hard to care for bugs so badly.
Chris Alan I feel a good starter herp is a toad
@@sarahshine6026 literally, they are super low maintenance and their diet is really simple.
@@animeaunty isiobods are super easy to carefull lol.
that poor turtle spent almost my entire life in pain and misery :( that's horrible, I'm so glad it's been saved at least..
Fr bro it's sad asf people need to know how to take care of whatever animal their getting or don't get one until you get a better understanding of how to take care of it.

@Gavlar Z turtles are generally solidary creatures and don't really mind being in captivity as far as they are properly cared for.
MBD however is irreversible so he can't be cured and will struggle for the rest of his life.
@Gavlar Z he is not going to be in that tank forever, he is going to be rehomed likely
@Gavlar Z he cant live in nature, idiot
This is so sad :'( I wish people would take supplementing seriously :'( Glad they're in better hands now.
Woah, you're here too!?
He is now definitely
I didn't know you watched his channel
Same
Wow you watch all the lizard videos
Alex: You look ridiculous
Turtle: *say sike right now*
I'm crying
I feel so bad about this turtle
You again xD
He's about to pull a gun out of his shell
bro you are like the Justin Y of nerd videos
How awful, I just hope they aren't in pain. Being disabled myself the thought that humans caused these problems by laziness and unnecessary ignorance breaks my heart.
MBD is very painful for a lot of animals. I hope these guys are no longer in pain or the pain is a lot less severe with now being properly cared for.
Same here
As a fellow disabled person, I always do my best to give my animals the best quality of life. I completely agree with the idea that we don't want them to suffer like we do.
hey, disabled buddies! i feel the same way :( the fact that people were so ignorant that they left these animals with permanent damage is... a lot :(
MsCherade9 that’s why I researched as much as I could before I got a bearded dragon
I love how you’re lovingly roasting them. 😹
Its wierd for me to hear that a grown up person was born after the year 2000
We are a few days from the year 2020 and there is enough time for the first post 2000 to reach legal adulthood in most countries.
Same
Right
I'll be an adult in less than 30 days haha, born in 2002
I’m 20 and I was born in 2000
While it’s Incredibly sad that all these reptiles have been cared for so poorly, I’m really happy that you were able to look after them on their journey to find a forever home.
thanks!
Their forever home would have been where they where taken from. "Cared for so poorly" indeed. not an attack, just a thought.
@@MetsanAsukas Then their forever home was shit and the owners should have researched what kind of animal they were getting and how to properly care for it
Moral of the story: reptiles need sunlight.
Almost everything needs sunlight. We do too. Not getting enough sunlight can cause our mood to be terrible. That is where seasonal depression comes in which I suffer from yay. Hopefully you don't.
Lauren same
Go get a suntan like all wetas!! Weak
@@JuicyPricklePeach are seasons supposed to last 10 years?
only diurnal ones do
I met someone who asked me why their leopard gecko is “bow legged” and I immediately knew it was likely metabolic bone disease. Hopefully they took my advice and added calcium to their diet
@Tyler Is a Cactus even if you add calcium that’s not the cause of MBD. They should be giving their Leo d3.
A. Yeah I said calcium with d3, before they didn’t add anything to the crickets.
Is it possible to fix the problem and return them to "normal" (I don't own one but jw)
DragonTamer31K properly caring for them won’t fix the problem. It’s permanent but it will stop it from getting worse and sometimes correct it A LITTLE BIT I heard. I know my gecko has MBD and after adding a proper diet he hasn’t gotten worse.
Jackie Tearie definitely a big risk. I think feeding with insects also has a risk though doesn’t it?
Alex: "aerodynamic shape . . . for swimming"
Turtle: "I can't fly my dude"
its still kinda similar, water is just very heavy and dense air, aerodynamic shape works well in water (or any fluid) too
Some people need to stick to pet rocks. If you can't care for it, don't get it. Thanks for taking these sad babies in & helping them find a measure of happiness.
Some people will kill pet rocks even.
@Hem0phelia its all we can do sometimes I laugh a little.
It hurts me so bad that this is the normal for these guys.
@J.L Industries I think the person means that this the norm for these particular animals, these 3. :-)
this is not "normal" for these guys. It is a direct result of the pet trade. My brother/sister look deep, animals are not slaves.
Metsän Asukas ur dumb
That UV running out of the light bulb was a GREAT piece of information. I never knew that. What a caring gut. I hope he becomes a veterinarian.
Damn.. I got my first reptile when I was 13 years old and I took better care of them. I had no clue what I was doing and I just asked around, googled, watched videos and I figured it out. My first snake was a corn snake and he was great and lived for 6 years with me (was old when I got him) I also had a emperor scorpion (died of old age) and then I had a iguana that sadly was sent to me with issues, was literally starving and near dead in the package. They sent me a "replacement" ball python who was so badly malnourished you could see every bone in their body which is disgusting to do to a snake. A species that can go a week or more without eating and still not be starving! That was literally the last time I tried to get reptiles because I was so heart broken at the way they treated the animals and I really didnt want to see another scaley baby come in that condition. I just demanded my money back, left bad reviews and reported them.
Some people should just never have animals in their care.
yeah, it’s insane people don’t just google something about care. literally any website will say to give beardies/geckos/sliders UVB and it’s so insane that people just don’t read that???? I was 11 when i got into reptiles (i didn’t own any tho) and i know better than these fully grown adults. 🤦🏼 what absolute craziness.
This is why I continue to keep working at psmart; i refuse sales on people who don’t bother with learning care and husbandry for the animal. I wish they would hire more competent employees in petcare though.
Y'all are allowed to refuse to sell an animal to a customer? 😯
Im actually kinda happy with my petco and petsmart. The fish ppl there have come off very knowledgeable so i feel very lucky with that. I was just at my pet co yesterday and eyeing some pretty fish but they had ick. I called the worker over to talk about them and she noticed the ick right away and said she couldn't sell anything out of that tank. I never been happier to hear some one say no. Shows she was doing her job well. I just wanted to see what she would do. She did not disappoint.
@@kagehikari4281 that's awesome. I didn't know they were able to refuse sales. Which imo is pretty cool, kinda makes me wanna work there. I always tell people to do their research before buying an animal, so hearing that you're allowed to turn away customers that won't bother with their care is cool.
@@villanelle169 I know right? But every location is going to be different. Id like to think there getting better about it but hard to say overall as im sure corporate is not all that better but its refreshing to find decent knowledgeable staff at least.
Sadly, I think most Petsmart managers would fire an employee that refused too many sales based on that employees judgement of the customs "level of care"
With those stores, the damage is already done when they buy their stock from those breeders that only care about quantity & money as Alex here demonstrated n that video when he called a bunch of stores. That video also demonstrated that many many of the employees that sell the animals have NO CLUE. How can an employee judge the customers ability if they themselves r clueless? I understand some stores have some knowledgeable staff but that is the exception, not the rule.
NEVER purchasing animals from these stores is the ONLY way to improve the animals care. Even 'rescuing' from the store encourages them to buy more sad pets from sad breeders. BOYCOTT! & effect some real change!!!
6:05 lmao a masterpiece of editing and photoshop.
why do i love those every time i see them.
I was cleaning my leopard gecko cage while watching this (I like him to hear other voices, he doesn't often and It's helped him adjust to the random times people are around him) and when you said 'this Leopard has metobolic bone disease' mine walked straight off of a log and into a hide 😂
He KNOWS
20 year old man to 40 year old turtle: he's weird looking and wonky.
40 year old turtle: excuse me?
"Alex roasting disabled reptiles for 13:00 minutes"
But that aside, I love how informative your videos and and your acceptance amd care for neglected life
The store where I worked, and sent the leopard gecko from, gets their reptiles from Reptile Industries. I'm sorry that I did't mention that in my initial correspondence. I wasn't the only person in charge of animal care there, but I can definitely say that the gecko didn't get the proper diet. All that we were allowed to feed were crickets, and they were not gut loaded. I sent him to you because I knew that he needed care that the store couldn't provide and that the managers were most likely to just sell him to someone that had no clue what they were doing. It's an unfortunate reality that I've learned about the pet industry. I've since quit working at that store.
Good on you for getting it to Alex but as u r surely aware, 'rescuing' these animals only encourages the stores & breeders to produce more. Boycotting really is the best chance for change for future pets.
@@animeaunty Yes, I am aware. I adopted the gecko from the store. They received no money from me for the animal. This is another reason why I quit. I hated being threatened with losing my job for refusing to sell animals to ignorant people. I'll never work at another pet store, even though it hurts my heart knowing the way that those animals are treated before being sold.
@@florencetheunicorn
Oh, I'm so sorry Hun. It gets worse as u age too. My empathy for animals has increased so much that I refuse to get another dog cuz loosing the last one GUTTED me
If it cheers you up, my mom impulse-bought 15 years old me an eyelash gecko from the local pet store in my arse-end-of-nowhere town, said shop said she was entirely insectivore and called her a "spotted" gecko and fed her real badly. I wanted to know her gender and discovered Banana was a New Caledonia eyelash gecko in the process and found exactly what she needed diet and habitat-wise, and my goodness I was determined to make her life as good as possible. Got her used to my handling her, endured the occasional escaped crickets driving me nuts at night for the sake of them being full of yummy things for her, and accidentally got her to associate my fingers with tasty baby food.
Chewed my mother out for buying me a "surprise gift" because as much as I loved Banana I would have chosen a fully human-friendly gecko if it was up to me and only after figuring out if there's a vet in town that deals with exotics, and definitely wouldn't have bought it from such a P.O.S. store that can't even feed their critters the right things.
So there's the rare miracles where an idiot buys a pet from an uncaring store and gifts it to someone who goes above and beyond to find out what's right for them.
“He’s just like a scaly sausage” 😂😭 poor little guy.
Me: Oh my gosh, that poor turtle has been neglected since I was a baby.
Alex: that's eight years before I was born.
Me: Oh my gosh, I'm so old.
I remember clothing styles and women in shoulder pads and stupid perms. Writing that year one digit at a time at the top of handwriting exercises. Fat goth babysitters weaving "Gimp". A friend talking about American Gladiators. koosh balls. Billy Ray Cyrus unfortunately. clear sticks filled with fluid and glitter. Star Trek Next Generation being the most futuristic thing you've ever seen. plaid flannel button-downs. A lot of Eurythmics and Phil Collins in the radio, Cat Stevens if you're lucky. The anti-semetic-sounding parts of the new testament read aloud in church. Wanting a slinky. Andrew Lloyd Weber being important somehow. Power Rangers on TV at daycare. Full House seeming worth watching. Devil-Sticks and hacky-sacks. The Simpsons seeming edgy. . .
Unfortunately, it only gets worse from here.
Yeah, when someone say that the year 1990 is three decades ago 😱
@@andrewj3177 I'm generally like, "Wait, 2000 wasn't _that_ long ago! I... It doesn't _feel_ like it was that long ago!"

My girlfriend and I have been watching your channel together for a while now. She told me today that she's watched your last couple uploads without me. She fell asleep about 15 minutes before you uploaded this video. You have given me sweet revenge and I thank you.
Are you an adult?
Cause I cant fucking tell
Based Ethan, your girl looks pretty my guy 👌🏾
I'm so glad you're showing this side of what happens when you can't care for these reptiles. It's a cautionary thing for people who are thinking about getting these little guys. You have to make sure you can care for them!
"1992, 8 years before i was born"
people who were born in 1999: wOW iM sO oLd
the beardie looks like he’s achieved enlightenment
how those turtles at Chernobyl be looking..
but in all seriousness,im glad they’re finding good homes
By now the turtles there look far healthier than this poor fellow :(
"But he does still have bones"
You learn something new every day
Jokes aside, those poor babies :'( you have to wonder how someone didn't twig "oh, maybe I'm doing something wrong here?" wayyyy before it got that bad
exactly! You'd think they'd realize something was wrong when they started to look all wonky
omg i couldnt watch the beardie part . its too sad to me to think that he/she’s in pain because of the weight being put on its limbs :( i have a beardie and its unbelieveable how they did nothing to help it. 🥺
My dislexia: “almost 72 years”
I was like *hold up what*
Regular Slides can usually live up to 50 years so close enough lol
“Eight years before I was born.”
...
😳😱
I felt that like a brick in my face 👵🏼
How did the turtle survive so long? They are so resilient...
Edit: Okay I sound like an idiot. Most turtles don't make it through MBH so I was kinda surprised to see this one. My own question has no excuses because I have a red-ear slider myself. Lol
You answered your own question.
Well as you saw, they are very adaptable and make the best of every situation they can and always keep moving.
I mean they are turtles endurance is what they evolved for
All of these are beautiful responses 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If the person that adopted the beardy did some physical therapy, lile moved the limbs around, would that help build muscle to help with the growth?
@@PuffinPox That's great! Thanks for sharing! I'm glad it can work in some cases then. :) Just needs patience and kindness and the willingness to TRY!
Not really a reptile expert, however I am a CNA, and have worked with patients before with muscle atrophy. In many cases, mobility can be improved with physical therapy, however if it has advanced to a contracture deformity, then surgery would be needed. Contracture deformity is when the muscles have atrophied to a point that the limbs are stiff, and cannot be pulled straight. Since this beardie's limbs still seem like they can be pulled without much force, then I would think physical therapy, coupled with proper care for the MBD, could help Lucky at least get some mobility back, but it would also depend on the extent of the damage, such as if the joints are deformed as well.
It depends how bad it is. For that beardy, mabey a little. But if it is fully grown its fucked
For beardies swim therapy may help as when submerged their natural inclination is to try and paddle. Obviously this should be done with 100% supervision and they should be supported from below to keep them above water at all times.
Like others have said tho depending on how bad the bones are no ammount of muscle will matter if its bones can support it or are locked in useless positions.
@@TheScarletInfector If you can teach him to sprout gills, then you won't have to supervise him.
I was born in 1992, and I'm 27 years old. That turtle hasn't seen sunlight since I was born. :(
Alex: you look rediculous
Turtle: atleast i dont look like a skinny mac fry like you ò/\ó
Me: *reads the title*
Me: sweet baby no
Poor fella
These poor poor babies. Thank you for helping them!
Thank you young man. You are a hero for helping these unfortunate , long lived creatures. Life’s joys unfold when we stop and pay attention, and give our attention to those big and small creatures around us. Alleviating suffering.. Thank you for this lesson. You’re great!
“..what else do beardies do? Idk” 😂
The poor turtle, I gasped when I saw him. I've had many turtles in my life and none of them looked like that.
I had a trutal when i was super little that my dad bought from a roadside vender. It died and never grew. I feel so bad now knowing the reason it died was cause of inproper care ;-;
@@panzerkrieg3509 It's not your fault. A lot of us has pets when we were young that died due to improper care. That's one of the many reasons I'm glad good animal husbandy is becoming a more talked-about topic.
@@rockercaterrorencountered4924 yeah. I know its not really my fault, but i still feel horrible thay the little dude suffered. I really did love that guy and it would have been great if my family and I knew how to care for him so he could still he alive
i have bone disorders and it hurts so bad all the time, even with medication, so i can't imagine that these guys aren't in pain. I wish I could have Lucky, I would spoil him like a baby ♡
Im really conflicted on that beardie. I'm glad he doesn't seem stressed out but his condition potentially being permanent and restricting him to a life of effectively being a living rock makes me question whether or not that is a situation were euthanization should be considered. Despite the apparent lack of pain just... not being able to anything, even as simple as moving to point A to point B for temperature control...
Im glad hes getting a shot at a better life, but I just can't see it working out well being that limited.
I blame the pet stores.
When I was in college, I worked for a chain pet store that was common in shopping malls. We were trained on how to run a cash register and that was pretty much it. It is now almost 30 years later and I am horrified at how little those of us who worked there knew. What's worse were the lies we were told to tell about the animals just to get a sale. I was reprimanded once for telling a customer that a puppy can't really be house trained until 6 months of age (this is due to brain development). The official line was it could be done in a couple weeks. Most reptiles as the time were considered to be a "disposable pet" meaning that it was the sort of thing you get for a kid and it's no big deal if it dies off quickly. I quit after two months.
the thought that the poor turtle hasnt had proper care since the year I was born just broke my heart. I'm 27 and that poor baby hasn't been loved or treated right for most of his life. 😭💔
Just imagine a bearded dragon rolling around like a tumbleweed I’m sorry 😂
I like that you mention how hard it is to mess up leopard gecko care, cause unless they have parasites they’re easy easy.
That poor beardie he’s so cute 😭😭 a scaly sausage. I can’t.
6:06 is an unrealistic depiction, everybody knows beardies live on newspaper and carpet in the wild not that horrible loose substrate
F Ha!
Actually they live on calci sand 🤣🤣🤣
Wake up
Their deserts don't have a huge amount of loose sand. It's mostly clay like earth.
I could be completely wrong because I’m applying human anatomy to reptiles, but it looks like the bearded dragon has limb contracture’s.. which is a joint/muscle/soft tissue problem, so maybe his condition can be somewhat reversed or at least treated symptomatically
Morgan Wagner MBD is a bone disorder. But certainly with the right conditions the issue could be improved slightly.
I bought an male eastern box turtle for $80 of a guy while doing renovations at section 8 housing and this asshole had him in a small Tupperware container that wasn’t big enough for him to even turn around no water and some dryed up leaves he said he bought him from a pet store which is a lie bc they’re illegal to sell but what he didn’t lie about was that he had him for 5 years In that condition and happy to say I gave him to “viper” based out of Norfolk VA they rehab reptiles and he’s doing amazingly fine now but the day I got him I had him in all I had a cardboard box for a few hours and gave him the bottom of a water bottle with the spring water in it and no bs he drank it all Immediately like a thirsty dog and since then I’ve took three aquatic turtles out of that place that were living in boxes of sand no water sadly after I gave one a very good living condition with lots of warm water and just a nice aquarium till someone could take him he died. I don’t know why dummy’s gravitate towards turtles for pets I use to catch them all the time when I was a kid but only kept them for a couple days then put them back in the lake I found them.
You are a good guy. Taking care of animals like this, so few humans treat their pets well, and you are out there giving them the best life they can have now. You rock!
"We can tell because he's already twice the age of me... he's probably gonna be okayish..."
My little cousin talking about me
I'm so glad there are people like you to take care of sick animal's
I bet theres someone with an MRI machine that could scan the turtle it would be very interesting.
Like if the turtle is older than you
We're the same age
Why do people even like this
400th like from ya boiii
I’m nowhere close to the age of the turtle
No
Wtf is wrong with people? How the hell cant you tell that your are not taking care of your animal correctly when something like this happens to them.
This just makes me mad and sad
People like the idea of owning the animal. Its fun and exciting for a few months... They it gets put to one side and occasionally looked after.
I've known someone who got a reptile because they didn't think it would be a difficult pet... You don't need to walk it and most of the day it will do nothing. It doesn't need "to be feed every day". Etc. The usual crap. Some things happens with fish, I used to bred budgies and tropical fish. The budgies were easy but the fish... People stuck them in a tank and just tossed food in there once a day. No water change, nothing.
Some people are just stupid
I have to deal with those people daily; they even curse and threaten me if I refuse to sell them an animal at my store.
EccentricSage I agree
@EccentricSage Couldnt agree more. These were not caused by stupidity, these were caused by owners not caring for them. 2 very different things. They should have been prosecuted
It makes me so sad to see this and it is wonderful that you are educating people on MBD. Thank you for taking in these animals and making sure that they go to good homes.
God bless you kid for your kindness and love for animals, animals are the only sense of pure innocence ive never seen any animal act in hate or greed... people rather disgust me but your doing the right thing and helping others learn how to help, thats appreciated...
This is why you don't feed them dorito and mountain dew.
Aka the meme diet
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Or make them vegetarians like the desert fox that vegan had.
“8 years before I was born.”
You’re just a baby!
I’m so old >_
My leopard gecko (bell albino) is a rescue who I rehabbed from MBD, though she only has mild deformity in her back legs with slightly wide set hips, it still saddens me that she was neglected by her first owner. Thank you for raising awareness and showing how disabled reptiles still deserve love and care ❤️
My sister owns a beardie, his name is Rhaegar because he’s a dragon and she takes amazing care of him, basically bathed him almost every day at the beginning and he is now bigger from head to tail from her foot to knee. She told me that she’s seen a ton of reptiles, especially beardies, adopted by clueless people who think they’re like geckos and will stay tiny babies forever and that’s why there are so many rescued beardies, because when they grow they aren’t wanted anymore. I just thought it was sad because beardies are so amazing
I was today's years old when I realized dude is literally my age.....
I thought that he was 15
i want a edit of that bearded dragon with that having a good time song in the background
What a wonderful, compassionate and wise young man you are! Thank you for caring for the well being of these animals and sharing your passion with the world in such an uplifting way! Shine on!!
You are a special human being supporting and having empathy for animals with disabilities 🧡
Ive never seen someone so interested and caring about reptiles like alex is
“A little scaley sausage” 😂
These poor babies :c Thank you for helping get them proper care and for educating people on how to avoid accidentally hurting their reptiles!
Just found your videos and i'm hooked! I have a special place in my heart for herpatology. This is so sad, but I hope these beauties have a happy, pain free life from now on.
My primary school had a pet Bearded Dragon named Lucky and hearing this Beardie’s name just threw me for a loop
My mom introduces me to people like you introduce lucky. "This is Dez my weird daughter" lol lucky is my spirit animal 😍🤣
Thank you for being so nice to these babies and saving them, seeing this really lifted my mood. I'm glad this was in my recommended.
Metabolic bone disease makes me so sad, good on you for helping these animals and finding them great homes
"Since 1992. That was, 8 years before I was born" McScuse me? You're my age?
I love your videos...keep up the good work.👍
I randomly stumbled across this video and it makes my heart smile to see you care for these poor animals. Thank you so much!
You’re very inspiring I’m 20 and have a passion for animals as well it’s awesome to see another dude my age use his specialty to help animals in need.
The part when he let the beardie hold his fingers 😂
Of course MBD is serious, I think that little Leo looks so cute. Love the vid
it is gorgeous
You are such a joy to watch n listen to. Clear and informative. Your such a kind soul. 👍
Good job educating people on how to take care of these pets/animals.
so happy they're finding good homes
its exciting how many people are interested in the herps that have special needs
Do physical therapy with beardie. Help him straighten his limbs a few times a day for 20 minutes or so just moving them back and forth. See if that helps his joints
I have a tortoise, a Bell's Hinge-back Tortoise, like this who has an slightly mishaped back leg, but it's barely noticeable and she lives a good life. We bought her on a road in Mozambique from a guy holding ribbons tied to several individual tortoises and selling them. When we bought her she was already like that. The vet has checked her out and she (and her 2 companions) are fine. She lives there and gets tooken care of by a maman we know. We've had her for 7 years now!
Good on you for taking these animals and giving them proper care they deserve!! Peace and love bro
Did that turtle find a home? He looks so awesome dealing with the cards life has dealt him - he looks healthy and happy now at least.
I love your vids I'm so happy that ther have homes! ❤
thanks!
Very knowledgeable, love people who take care of animals.
Keep going mate.
Excellent video. You are very knowledgeable and a good teacher. Thank you for helping these unfortunate animals.
It makes me SO HAPPY when u put all those cruel pet owners on the spot light and say sarcastic comments to them! I really wish u could be even mooore mean to them on these videos.😭 this BREAKS MY HEART!!!!!!
Could u make tiny little braces for their legs? Or tiny little wheels?
wheels wont work for lizards since they climb up stuff so the wheels will just make them roll off
@@ghyul6263 if it did work tho😂
I have seen a rehabber on another channel build a little Lego wheelchair cart, but the beardie wasn’t as bad off as this one was, and the cart was just for exercise sessions until the beardie recovered some muscle tone.
I enjoyed this info pack video. Great job. Keep them rolling.
That beardie looks like he’s Constantly hugging himself
