Breeding dragons and MBD
 

I have currently aquired a 2 year old female that was not feed any calcium but did have a uvb light. She looks good but i noticed her mouth seems a bit soft when she eats - though she has no problem eating. We are giving her calcium and d3 in everything she eats. Do you think she will be able to breed?

what exactly do you mean by her mouth looks soft?

Her bottom part of her mouth looks a little more protrusive that the top and when i watched her eat crickets it looked to give more than the others. I might just be seeing things since the people who gave her too us said she had no calcium and with my short readings on MBD

Hello
 

Hello,

The only way to determine the calcium of her bones & blood are to get a bloodtest done along with x-rays.
The best supplements are repcal calcium products, with or without D3. The best UVB lights flourescent ones anyway are the reptisun 10 or the reptiglo 10. If she is having trouble you feel, I would get a mercury vapor bulb, either a Megaray or a T-Rex active UV heat. Those two have excellent UVB output.
Until you get her health checked out I wouldn't recommend breeding her as it could endanger her health.
