we just noticed this as we posted pics is this anythimg to worry about and what can cause it

we have researched why his top bit could be wonkey and have changed his uv as we were already dusting his food with calsium we are not sure
what his calcium in take was before if at all.
are these the only reasons or is their anything else we can do.

hi i have been told it could be mbd and i have checked his casque and jaw are firm their are no sighns in his joints he has a 10 uv tube brand new and his food is dusted with nutrobol and calypso he has a fantastic appitite .
i have read this can happen when they have a growth spert as they don't produce enought d3 and he def had one of those.
i will be keeping a very close eye on him from now on.

some animals are unluckily born with it as well. its what it sounds like to me, not poor husbandry.

it will still make a great pet, just kind of crooked.

haha

My yemen has a bent casque. The result of an untreated burn he got at the pet shop.
