Dehydrated

[Squirrely Girl]

I believe my flier has MBD so i started him on a new diet and have been given him calcium everyday.Anyways, I pinched his skin and i noticed he does seems to be dehydrated. I've been giving him pedialtye once a day at night but maybe i need to give it to him more?He is eating fine and drinking normally and he is still a little sluggish but active.(Reminder, my flier only has one back leg due to an injury when he fell as a baby,he bite that leg off and now he is biting his other back foot. I'm working on that this problem too).Does MBD cause dehydration also? What else can i do?

Keep in mind that flyers always have loose skin. It needs to stretch for gliding.

What makes you think he has MBD?

He is dragging his back end and his fur on his back end has gotten patchy (i think they call it kitten fur, the first sign of MBD) Plus it think it was the diet i was giving him, not enough veggies and too many nuts and seeds.I know he has lost some weight maybe that's why it seems extra stretchy too.
