We are a new black and white Tegu parents. She is about 10 months old. Unfortunately she is crippled. Her front legs and feet are clubbed and we do not know why or how to work with this. She has no use of her feet ,uses the upper part of her front legs but they stay behind her, she crawls alot on her belly. Has anyone else had this problem or have a tegu with the same problem. Would like some feedback

Aw, that's too bad. Do you think it could be calcium deficiency?

How about showing us pictures.
Possibly. We uped her UVB and added calcium to her diet. This is how her left front leg looks as well. When we walk her her legs stay like this , she kinda slides her way around
