  3. we sometimes tend to judge people by the way they post :oops: :oops: do you know k evans nice work by the way if you had introduced yourself like that at the start Sam no one would have passed a judgement on you most on here care about the hobby and our environment we live in, especially our native flora and fauna as most of your posts have been about keeping illegal stuff people have made assumptions based on that so don't be too hard on us
  4. from memory beardies don't have discs in their spine so can be prone to problems i have had x rays for arthritis show no results but anti inflams worked depending on the diet visceral gout could occur at any age methinks you will need too talk to the vet i am just a layman
  5. constipation or impaction can put pressure on the spine causing lameness in 1 or more limbs strains, sprains, muscle tears, fractures to joints or even arthritis? http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm ... 1&aid=2496
