 Skinny Iggy

Jade is getting alot better lately!! Her colors are brighter and she is more aware and active. We take her outside everyday and she eats fresh veggies and fruit, but I think she’s too skinny, you can totally see her ribs when she breaths (not just sitting there) and I’m worried.... More so now after reading about the poor Iggy that just died from MBD. I know that she was never properly taken care of before and that she was very unhealthy~ How can we fatten her up? Is there a mixture I can make up for her like the power aid for the bearded dragons?

I wouldnt worry too much about being skinny. You can see Midori’s ribs when she breathes, but when I took her to the vet, he said her weight was perfect. So long as your ig is bright, alert, responsive and her colors are bright, she eats, etc, I wouldnt worry too much.
