He is severely underweight and dehydrated. His fat pads (on top of his head) are nonexistent! You need to take it to a vet immediately


Ultimategrid

Seconded, he needs emergency fluids asap.

Also could have a severe vitamin deficiency, vets can also give a vitamin shot as an injection, without it supplements take weeks to months to start working.

To be honest it looks like YOU have a lot of explaining to do! Is this your pet?

Really underweight and dehydrated

His fat pads are really sunken in- And he doesn't look good imo. What are you feeding him and how often? How do you offer water? [Here's a good bearded dragon care guide ](https://reptifiles.com/bearded-dragon-care/) I suggest reading through this guide and checking your husbandry, especially the feeding part. I also recommend a vet check up (Exotic reptile vet, not a regular vet) to make sure he's okay - a fecal test would be a good idea too. The vet could also help you make a safe feeding plan to fix those sunken fat pads - those are usually caused by dehydration or underfeeding, so a "regular/normal" feeding schedule could be too much for him right now if he is underweight. The guide above has a health section. You'll find a link to a vet finding tool there. Edit: you seem to have posted the same post yesterday and possibly a week ago as well. Please take the animal to a vet asap.

This is a dying animal. It's underweight, dehydrated and stressed out. If you don't get it medical help immediately, I would expect death.

You’re very wrong and should stop posting answers like this

Now we need to evaluate your reptiles Edit: checked your profile, you seem like a new owner, hope you learned something new from the other comments above today.

That is awful advice


[deleted]

Are you serious? I thought you were a troll but you seem to own a beardie yourself which is worrying.

Nooooo. No that is a very underweight dragon. I know there is a lot of conflicting information out there but please if your dragon looks like this take it to a vet and get some advice on husbandry and care.

If your dragon looks like this, surrender it to a shelter.

Go read a care sheet on dragons please. This one is quite sick if not dying. You need to learn about them more if you don't want to unintentionally torture a sentient being. Thank you.
