Hey folk got a rather odd question for you all. I sadly had to get one of my cresties put to sleep yesterday. Im assuming the kidney's had packed in as calcium was lacking completely in her body. The x-ray showed up pretty much no bone and her spine had became like jelly and twisted. The only thing that was present was the two calcium storage sacks? in the roof of her mouth. Does any one know the name of these glands? which store the calcium? Also has this happened to any one before here?

Many Thanks
