Hi, i was given a yemen that had bad MBD but he is slowly getting better, he recieved no Uv or nutrobal ect by him previous owner. I brought solar drops for him as well as giving him the correct UV and nutrients ect. This thread is excellent as some people who do buy lizards really have no idea on how to look after them properly.

Good info on MBD. My Iguana died of this because of his previous owners! (I rescued him from a reptile centre)

I did everything I could but he was almost 4 years old and had 3 years of being fed the wrong food, with no lights, no heat pad, nothing. He was fed protein and had no calcium source. Previous owners were given the wrong info on how to keep an Iguana. He was kept like a dog basically.

Really good info, everyone should read this and do lots of research before getting a reptile!!!!!!!
