Question
Hi my bearded dragon has been limping which has made it hard to eat food. And it also hasn't grown at all. I've had it for 3 months and its about 9 months old please help its tank is 68gallons.

Answer
Hello Christopher,

I am sorry your dragon has an injury.  Can you review your tank setup with me, such as the type/brand of UVB & how old the UVB light?  
Do you supplement with calcium?
What are the temperatures in his tank?

Please post some pictures of him & your tank.  A 68 gallon tank is good sized for him.  

I look forward to hearing back from you.
