For each new video he makes, it sounds like he will own a rescue and rehab facility much bigger than the one he has now. Although he doesn't use a lot of complex words and terms for how he diagnose the issues, his description is enough to make the one listening understand the overall evaluation. He likes to keep everything in "laymen" terms yet also very professional at the same time; a doctor that you can understand their handwriting.

[@kbrown3787]

From what I have gathered, this guy is like 17 years old; purely self-taught, not an academic. I'm amazed by how much I have learned from him. A real prodigy in the herp world.

[@Fr0gl3t]

Keep an eye on that foot for swelling! It could possibly be some joint issue like gout. I personally had a beardie with this disease and it’s really debilitating.. but I don’t see much swelling, so what I think happened is he possibly had a break or dislocation that has since healed. With it now being healed in an improper placement, that may be a comfortable way to keep his foot. The more probable reason could be from the stuck shed. He could’ve at some point had circulation cut off to that hand, and had permanent nerve damage to that hand, thus making him sort of carry it oddly. Whatever it is, it doesn’t look to be much of a bother. Keep doing what you do!!

[@_AriseChicken]

They would have to have a high sugar intake for gout I think.

[@Fr0gl3t]

Hingle McCringleberry In reptiles it’s too much protein. But they have to already have the disease, increased intake of protein will make it flare up. I had to feed my beardie a strict vegetarian diet.

[@Somedude20282]

I definitely think it’s nerve damage from circulation issues. It seems like he probably doesn’t feel the foot much and doesn’t realize it’s sitting derpy

[@aquadraco20]

If that's true, he could get some kind of cast to hold his foot in proper alignment. That might correct things.

[@mads2158]

wow your a very smart hooman. I'm impressed

[@luguy8347]

Alyssa Hi, am looking after my daughter dragon. Am a senior and was freaked out by the creature. Slowly we have become good friends.i even feed her live worms, me of all people. I call her Princess. And she is so comical to us. Expensive to set them up. But once the unit is set up, it’s easy to maintain. Our is very calm and closes her eyes when we pet her. It’s been a learning curve for us. It’s a female and had 30 egg which were not fertile, so no babies, that was shocking. I think eventually I’ll be able to pick her up and carry her about and bath her. I almost want to keep her. Me, who gets creeped out super easily.

[@somefrog9673]

I actually know a herp sanctuary that has a tailless beardie. She was from a home that the owner just left her, a bp, and a dog, with all her belongings, in someone elses house. The reason of the tail's goneness is unknown, and her name is toad. she's adorable, and about half the size of a beardie her age.

Perhaps have "Perfect, Rehome, Rescue" I personally don't think rescue is too serious.

[@Rhaifha]

I was also thinking of 'Rehome' as the mid category.

[@kmcguire1618]

Me too! Rehome works perfectly as a middle ground.

[@byrn]

Hmm I was thinking 'rehab'. Rescue for those that will have issues for the rest of their lives, rehab for those that will be ok after a bit of tlc, and perfect for those that have never been neglected.

[@katekursive1370]

"Who knew you could be so glad about blood?" - People who never had pregnancy scares.

[@Call-me-Al]

Worst part is that a minority do have light bleedings while pregnant, it isn't a period just vaginal bleeding. And of those some even bleed regularly making it seem like a period... So if your period is normally light it can be difficult to tell the difference. And this is one of the several factors that can contribute to women not realizing they are pregnant until they give birth. I guess it's the only upside to being a heavy bleeder :( Can't mistake vaginal bleeding for a period if you're losing literally deciliters of period blood normally.

When I got my gecko from her previous owner she had 5 full on layers over her face,skinniest tail in the world, lost all het toes due to the stuck shed. Shes doin alot better now tho. Now she shed the first day all in one piece. Eats like a champ, but still terrified of people

[@Tinyvalkyrie410]

My gecko was a lot like yours, skinny, on calci sand, almost all toes gone, regrowing tail. The owner said he was about 11 years old and he lived with me for over 10. It took him a little while to be comfortable with handling, but the last several years he loved it. He would hang out on my shoulder, loved baths and loved his neck and the base of his tail rubbed. That said, he never had a normal shed, and had difficulty tracking and striking prey. Sadly, I lost him last month due to a tumor in his belly. I just wanted to thank you for rehoming your critter, and it reminded me so much of my story.

[@tabbioca]

@@Tinyvalkyrie410 shes a permanent member of the family now! After all trauma she went through with the last owner I wouldn't give her to anyone else. Im sorry to hear your gecko passed :(

Alex you’re going places and I can’t wait to see it! Never stop doing what you love

[@SavageTails]

Many years ago, I was out with some friends and we went to some random guy's house. I got lost on my way to the bathroom and found a 10 gallon aquarium with 2 adult beardies in it. 1 was a skeleton, and the other was so emaciated and cold it just laid in my hand - missing toes and tail. Gave the guy like $20 to take it. I'd had snakes, but not lizards. I nursed her back to health with the help of a local reptile shop and rehomed her after she improved. I wasn't in a big enough place to house her. She was so chill and awesome. Your videos are making me want to help another beardie in need and keep it this time. I don't need anymore animals, stop the madness, Alex.

[@helema23]

his foot issues might just be from the stuck shed constricting it. since you have pretty much gotten it off it wil most likely heal over the next month or so.

I've been involved in animal rescue for years. I assure you that he IS a rescue! That is absolutely the correct term, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that! I'm very concerned with the folks you got him from. It appears that there may be neglect, possibly abuse, and some shady breeding practices going on. Laws regarding such things are gradually getting better. It's would be a good idea if you find a similar situation in the future to contact law enforcement and let them know that it's something worth looking into. Hope this little guy, and others like him, are seeing a vet. Lots of good ones that work with reptiles. And by the way, he's beautiful! I currently have one about the same size, and I'm happy to say he is a rescue, and he is So sweet. Peace. 😊🐾

I think it’s awesome you rescue these sweet babies all of them. I was scared of lizards till my youngest daughter got some. Well I now take care of them and love them. But ours were rescued from things at home like our cats and then heat I have three I am getting back to health from the heat and no rain in for ever. I have swifts or blue bellies or fence lizards ppl call them all kinds of things. I have 7 babies and my adult females are gravid my male was a rescue. The three I’m getting back to health are anoles ( they are very hard) but these three one who I found while spraying water for the lizards outside could not walk his hands were in a fist I thought he was going to die but he is great gaining weight and so are the other two . Those babies are with my fence lizard babies and they do great together. I don’t just go grab them from outside and keep them, I have little places around my house for them to hide get shade and I go water them two three times a day and I buy crickets and throw them out to the lizards outside around the house. I just try and help them when need be. You can not find much on fence lizards but tons of ppl have them I have had two clutches and they have hatched I really have had to do it on my own learning

I’ve never had nor been around a beardie until now. My husband rescued him from a really bad situation. He had not been fed for at least couple of months and running around in a pile of dirty clothes in a camper. We got him home and I began the research on how to handle. Things where going well he was eating after days of trying this and that. First 3 days he wouldn’t drink then he realized what it was and did great even drank in his bath. That was 2 months ago. Now for the last week and half ever since I bought him a much larger cage and placed him in hit he goes to one end or the other ( most of the time because I’ve moved him to the middle) climbs on his large rock or gifs in his cave and just stays there. His eyes look good and when I talk to him he responds but doesn’t move body only head. He finally ate 1 1/2 pellets yesterday but that’s been it. Won’t eat or drink not even in the bath. We have no vets out here that know about dragons. Do you have any suggestions or advice. Thank you
