Help; paralyzed U.milii!!!

[cindy]

Hi,

One off my U. milii juvie's is suddenly dragging here back legs and tail around...
She didd'nt fall or got into a fight, and nothing was put on here by accident.
I pinched here toes, and than she does retract them. If their reflexes works the same as in mammals, that suggests that she does have some feeling in here legs.
What could be wrong with here????????????????????????
we agreed that we would monitor here closely, and seek the help off a vet, after the weekend.
This makes me so sad....
Hope someone can help me!
Kind regards,

Cindy

Partial paralysis, seizures and similar problems are usually a calcium deficiency issue.
They most often manifest in growing babies and breeding females.
Sometimes you can still prevent the worst with some oral dosages of calcium with moderate amounts of D3.

Thank you very much for your reply, Matjazz!!!! Starting from tonight, we will try to feed some calcium/mineral supplement powder to here. And monday, I'll call my vet to ask if she could inject here with some calcium or D3. I hope that helps, and that we are not to late...
Thanks again,

Cindy
