I guess my response wasn't clear enough. This thread is for substrate for breeding your dragons. Not feeders! You have to post in the "Feeders" section.

I think if you posted this question in the "Feeders" topic, you'd get some great responses. :D

Thank you for the response. I will definitely be at the store tomorrow to get what we need. The small bin was just what I had on hand that would make the walnut deeper than 1/2" or so. Her belly doesn't feel like there could be any more eggs in it. She seems so skinny now that I can't believe I...

I did not realize LuLu was gravid, although looking back, everything clicks into place and makes sense now, after reading here today. She has been trying to dig through her tile and hide, glass dancing, leaving little blobs of urate all over in her tank and whenever I had her out where she and...

I can't think what it would be. He doesn't even eat crickets anymore. I guess it could be something he climbs on/under. I don't know. I think I'll take everything out of his viv tomorrow and check it over. I feel so bad for him! :cry:

Things are a bit worse. This is now affecting both front feet. He doesn't like me handling it at all, but I've still been doing the betadine and neosporin. He may need other meds, but I simply cannot afford to to pay for a vet visit right now. He has never been before, so I know it's going to be...

Thank you all for the info. Rudy is doing ok so far. He hasn't had any issues with me handling his foot. When I gave him his bath to clean up the blood, he was fine when I rubbed it to get it clean. Apparently, it doesn't bother him at all. Thanks again! Kym

Thank you for the info. One more question, if you don't mind. How often should I dab it on him? For such a small little scale, it sure made a bloody mess everywhere! Nasty! Thanks again!

I think he ripped a scale off somehow. I didn't know I could use a human antibiotic. I do have some betadine. What dilution do I use?

I noticed during Rudy's bath today that he had a strange looking scale on top of his right front foot. Went back to look at him an hour later and there was blood all over his enclosure! It came from this foot. I gave him a bath to clean him up, but I know he is now very open to infection. Is...

That's good to know. It's been so long since I've seen a poo, but I think it looked okay. Yesterday, Rudy woke up and wouldn't eat his greens, but paced a lot and climbed up to his uv light and hung out on it for a while before moving back to his shady part. I'm going to get him out and bathe...

I just don't have the money to get two dragons checked. They don't sleep deeply, but I still haven't cleaned up any poop. It probably been two weeks, but then again, they haven't really eaten much to make them poop in the first place.

Nope, not shedding....making a mess all over trying to get out, though! Rudy is better, once he gets in, he's fine for a while, just sitting there. When he's ready to get out, he lets me know! LuLu, on the other hand, is constantly flailing to get out, resting now and then and starting all over...

My female did the same thing yesterday for the first time. She usually hates bath time, too. I'd like an answer to this, too. She's under a year old, however, so I don't think she's gravid. Thanks Kym

I think this is what Rudy is doing, as well. He's probably barely a year old. He's a Pet Smart dragon so I'm not positive on age. We decided his birthday was September 1st. He's my son's, so he decided, actually. Anyway, I can't remember the last time I cleaned up any poo, he's under his hide...
