Mbd question.

[Trailgem]

This is not about my Chams, this is a friends Cham. I haven’t seen it in person for months... and I can’t fill out the form for it either. I do know he bought a linear t5 and a mister, but that’s all I know, no ideas what the details are about the light. I remember back then said he bought calcium, and a cage. Anyway... that really is all I know. someone said he had mbd. I really can’t tell...

I am attaching a picture.
Can someone tell me why he would say he has mbd? What are the signs?

I posted this picture before because he is trying to rehome him due to cat problems. (Nope, I cant take him)

What Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD) looks like, how it happens, and how to fix it this thread covers it all with pictures.

Yep, I’m at work... I had to repost it. I saw the link, but I can’t see anything they are referring to on this picture.

The forearm could be slightly curved outward and the elbows aren't perfectly clean. A better picture would help.

That’s all I have. Im trying to contact him.

Yeah all I see is what @JacksJill has pointed out with the forearm.

 

[JacksJill]

It could just be an awkward camera angle.

 

[Trailgem]

Yeah and I can’t reach him.

 

[Trailgem]

This what he said...

 

[Trailgem]

Well, he’s not responding... so I leave this up to him.

To be honest, it worries me, I’m sure I’m doing everything right with mine, I feed them crickets and Dubias; I add the calcium (LoCal) I have the correct lighting... and my Chams looks fine to me, but are they?

 

[Trailgem]

So that’s what he send me. I guess that still not showing anything.

He doesn’t look like he has any of the typical physical abnormalities associated with MBD. He looks healthy...

Thank you. I’ll let him know.
