Xrays
Heres xrays of Frank & Lewis as i said in 2posts earlier that i would post these for all to see
First is Lewis's xray, bone circled in purple is the healed fracture/brake in his right back leg ~
as you can see his bones are barely visable and deformed along his spine/tail
Now here's Frank's xray, purple circle on right back leg is a healed fracture/brake, little circle on right foot is a brake, little circle on left foot is 2brakes and the most obvious brake of all the left back leg at the top ~
we're not sure how his leg got broken, could of happened when i was handling him or just by jumping around in his viv as his bones were that weak
Anyway just thought i'd share these to highlight the importance of proper care, supplements and lighting so hopefully noone elses lizards will suffer like these 2.

Re: Xrays
Thank you for sharing the pictures. They are extremely interesting, but also extremely sad ):
I really hope Lewis makes as much of a recovery as possible, and I am really sorry about Frank. ):
What you and Gary do is amazing.
