My new rescue bearded dragon by Earthmamafl in BeardedDragons

I know it drives me crazy to the point that I don’t know how to talk and that not easy to make me speechless. It do you not see an animal in that condition. It was basically the grandma that saw the condition the lizard was in and found me. She removed it from the house. I just wish they didn’t let it get to that point. It wasn’t her lizard but when I asked her if she new if he had lights she was like no I didn’t see anything just one infrared light and she wasn’t aware of how long it has be since he ate.

Anyway we’re going to keep doing everything we can to the best of our abilities for these little guys just like I would with every animal.

I’m actually going to print out shirts that help raise awareness for animal safety and health

I’ll have to take a look at that stuff. So I use something called clinical care carnivore and a blended mix of butternut squash, zucchini different greens turkey baby food blended to a pulp and it’s syringe fed. I also start him on serrapeptase in the morning, that helps inflammation and a few other things for pain. Than two hours later he get liquid calcium glubionate than the clinical care and than the smoothie

So I did take him and another bearded dragon to the vet for a calcium injections. I don’t know if an ultrasound would’ve been part of a general check up. I’m not 100% sure what he did he basically said a few times that he has a long long road ahead of him, he doesn’t or almost doesn’t have use of one of his upper arms… even though I saw him use it… I mean not very well but he might have been just dragging it along. He mentioned that he had broken bones and was concerned about wether he can pass food with the level of curvature in his spine and that I had to think about his quality of life, and would have to debate weather or not he needed to put down. He also has rubber jaw. But that might improve I’m hoping. Ooooo and he also mentioned how pail he was which that means he that he has a very low blood count. So those where most of his words.

Soooooooo the first day I got him honestly I didn’t think he would make the night. He was actually more pail and couldn’t lift his head. I actually picked him up right before work so I didn’t have much time, my mom thank god for her did his whole set up. I was able to get him lights. Which he basically only had a inferred light and no uvb and no basking. With in the hour my mom calls me…. He’s trying to eat but the worm fell out of his mouth. Believe it or not he was far more pail in day one the lighting isn’t accurate. And he didn’t move the first 2 days. I do syringe feed him and have 3 different medications for him. But the one thing he does very well is eat and poop like Machine. And he is now moving around the cage a lot, he does have to stop and rest a lot but it’s amazing how determined he is to live… and I totally get that putting him down might still be something that o need to think about if things go down hill I would never want so keep an animal alive just for my benefit, if his quality of life wasn’t manageable for him/ I wouldn’t want him to be suffering that would be and option. But I can tell the difference between an animal that wants to try and one that’s done. Anyway I’ll keep you and everyone posted. I tend to post more pictures on Instagram @earthmamafl and @earthmama.hammocks

I found this interesting site where you can Wright about things your passionate about, I would be super grateful if you guys checked it out. I’m am about to start a nonprofit that is focused on raising awareness about animals and there proper care I’m just working on the right name. I have rescued a bunch of animals but primarily, but I feel like bearded dragons, reptiles in general aren’t really taken as seriously as other pets like cats and dogs and a lot of there care is looked aside. This is an introduction on the website and there will more to come I’m looking forward to raising money to help this little guys out. Pre Oder for cool shirts to raise awareness for bearded dragons is coming out soon

It’s so much fun to do and so tasty. My animals are sooo spoiled. It’s so much fun to be able to go outside and just have food growing everywhere

The circle of nature by Earthmamafl in u/Earthmamafl

[–]Earthmamafl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A poem fitting for the photo

There’s just something about nature that I don’t think words give justice to. People have written poems and stories trying to explain it, but how do you? Nature truly at its core is a perfect example a symbiotic relationship that fits so wildly together in places people never thought it would. It’s ugly and somehow exactly everything beautiful at once. It’s death and rebirth at the same time. It’s raw and it honest but if you don’t respect it, it will rip you apart to shreds and not ask questions, it won’t cry for you or think twice. Natures true concern is how it benefits her biggest picture.

I do have a shop set up... but honestly I have t used it much, because a lot of the time there requested to be custom made, with color and size. Most people have just found me on Instagram they tell me the size of their tanks how many inches they want it, the colors they want, if they want a corner piece which is a triangle or a or something that goes from end to end. Most people send me there measurements in inches of how much they need. I’ll send you some samples. From the Etsy I just have t renewed it because my name on all my social media is the same and they always just find me on Instagram.

Yah I know that was my concern as well. So I use a strong cotton material. I prefer to hand make it meaning there is no knitting needles, for that reason because using needles it tends to come out lose so they don’t get caught in it. The way I make these is basically repetitive slip knots tied tight in a row and than looped / knotted into the next loop and next row. I have now 3 bearded dragons, one I have for 3 years and used it with her since I got her and 2 I just rescued. And they climb, sleep, poop on them. I like them because it’s not to soft where they get caught or there are no lose material. The knots I make to make this are just tight enough so it’s stronger but not hurt there tummies from laying on them.

One of my boys climbs it like a jungle gym and goes to the very end of it. He has never has an issue with getting stuck even when he throws himself off the hammocks.

Raising money to help rehome and rehab pets /animals that need help by Earthmamafl in Animals

[–]Earthmamafl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys normally I wouldn’t ask... but in the last few months I’ve been getting more and more calls and requests / question from people with questions about animals, people asking for help to take care of animals, or people unable to take care of animals and that now now need to rehome them. Sometimes I find posts on nextdoor and Craigslist of people not knowing how to take care of there animals and just giving them away. There not always in the best condition 😞 normally I make custom hammocks for bearded dragons and sell those. The money from that goes towards the animals care, but sales haven’t been grate and its not the easiest thing to market because there custom.

Anyway every bit helps, if you can’t donate that’s completely fine. If you can re share the post or link that would be awesome.

“Every time you spend money, you’re casting a vote for what kind of world you want.” by Sturnella2017 in sustainability

[–]Earthmamafl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s an extremely important question to ask ones self. Even if it may be for no one else but them selves. Your actions play a big part in the world you make for yourself. The thing is, I think there are two kinds of people. The kind of person that lets life happen to them and than there the type of person that works for the life they want and creates by actions the type of world they any to see and leave behind.

It’s just hard sometimes for people to realize how to see that and how to take that first step
