well we got 2 females, and one male in a few days ago.

They look like they WERE fat.... when we got them home and I looked them over, thier tummies are sunk in, thier back legs have a lot of loose skin... they are just... blah

now, i gave them some pinkies- only one of them was interested.
They've had TONS of leafy greens and veggies...

they all drank like there was no tomarrow when they got water...
i filled the bowl twice- and misted the veggies...

they didn't get many crickets b/c the 2 stores by my house only had a few left... i'll be at a different store tomarrow and they always have crickets...


what else can I do to help them get fattened up?

also- one of the females ahs very strange bones on her head- just the formation is different- she has a bulldog underbite- and the skull bones are almost... pointed...
i'll try and get pics...
she is in the worst condition- not eating, just lays around, not active, not eating or drinking like the other 2...


anyway... advice please-- we've had a TON of Bearded Dragons but none quite like that odd female...
and its been a while since we had skinny Bearded Dragons...

thanks

Beth

UVB problem in the past perhaps?

There is no need to try to fatten them up right away, just go gradually with a healthy well balanced diet and they will put on weight before you know it. Just allow them to eat as much as they want.

As for the non-eater you might want to get a big feeding syringe or even a turkey baster and make a slurry of Turkey or Chicken babyfood, unflavored pedialyte, some calcium powder and some pureed veggies.
