Imagine waking up one day to find your beloved reptile struggling to move, its once-vibrant energy diminished to a mere shadow.
This nightmare scenario is a real concern for reptile owners: caused by a silent, insidious condition known as Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD).
This condition, often lurking beneath the surface, can transform your thriving pet into a weak, suffering creature in a matter of weeks or months.
But there's good news: metabolic bone disease is preventable!
First, we have to understand the cause of MBD: calcium/phosphorus imbalance.
But what causes the imbalance?
As it turns out, many factors can be involved. One is too much fat in the diet (which is why high-fat feeder insects like waxworms are best kept as an occasional treat.)
