It makes a weird noise then starts to shake their head and you feel the crack on the back. But only an idiot would touch a bearded dragons back!

Wait...seriously? ^...okay, it depends on A. where the break is and B. how severe. If your dragon is dragging its hind or lying limp then he may have a broken back and it caused paralysis. You may be able to see or feel the "notch" created by the break. As far as the comment above, "only an idiot would touch a bearded dragons back" maybe he/she is thinking a komodo or perhaps the mythical one because my dragons enjoy being touched and having their backs petted.

well, for starters, if the spinal cord has snapped near the spine, it will be dead. I'm hoping this already occurred to you though :) If the back is broken further down, or only the vertebrae are broken and the spinal cord is intact the back can appear lumpy or misshapen and the dragon may display difficulty walking. If the hind legs are limp or do not work this may also indicate there is damage to the spinal cord. Best to just check with a vet though.

As soon as you notice something is wrong with your bearded dragon, you immediately call the vet! Do not wait until the next day!

When your bearded dragon acts sluggish, does not move or react to noise or touch, it is in dire need of medical care. Get it to your vet right away or it will be too late for the vet to help your bearded dragon!

Even a broken back might be healed if you get your bearded dragon to the vet soon enough after the break happens! Even waiting until the next day may mean the vet cannot help your bearded dragon.

Yes they do. Bearded dragons are reptiles, and therefore vertebrates.

Yes, you can place two of the same age together. Be careful though, because if they are different genders they may breed. To tell if it is male or female, gently flip over the bearded dragon and look for bumps just before it's tail. One bump means means female; two means male.
