    From the US to Australia - help?

    I love Melbourne for how multicultural it is. I thought my city in the US was multicultural until I came here lol. But I LOVE the birds here. After 3 years I’m still amazed every time I see a cockatoo! Haha I think the herp society expo is in March. I’m definitely planning on going. In terms of...

    From the US to Australia - help?

    kingofnobbys, I'll probably stick to a non-loose substrate anyway for my own peace of mind. I used to slate tiles and was pretty happy with them, so I think that's what I'll use again. I'm still adjusting, mostly because my family is still in the US, but I'm hoping to be able to visit them...

    From the US to Australia - help?

    kingofnobbys, planning on waiting at least another month anyway (in the process of moving house right now so will probably wait until we're a little more settled). Thanks for the Arcadia tip, I had a look and they definitely seem like the better option. label, didn't mean to completely bash...

    From the US to Australia - help?

    Been awhile since I've posted on here (3ish years I think?), but I'm an American living in Melbourne, Australia (Werribee actually). About 3 years ago I moved to Australia and had to re-home my two beardies. Long story short, after 3 years and no longer renting (and dealing with landlords very...

    MBD? Or something normal?

    You're right. I'm insanely paranoid when it comes to my animals, and I have to admit, even something this slight triggered a minor freak out. LOL I'll get some liquid calcium and give him that instead of the powder. Thanks!

    MBD? Or something normal?

    Thank you! That makes me feel better. I was very confused because I know he's getting his proper UVB and supplements, so I had no idea what this could be. I'll be taking him to the vet next week just to put my mind a little more at ease though. You can never be TOO safe! :roll: How would he...

    MBD? Or something normal?

    Hey everyone, Haven't posted in a while, but lately I've been a little worried about something with my Stewart. To me it looks like his lower jaw is protruding in the "MBD" looking way. Now, it's not severe, and I'm not even sure if this is something normal that he'll grow out of or if it's just...

    Differences in Growth

    I got my first in the spring, so your idea about the ambient temps in my house being lower this time around is definitely possible. I would never have thought of that! Hopefully because I think I caught the Coccidia quick and his treatment was fairly quick and easy he'll be catching up to my...

    Differences in Growth

    I know that different beardies grow at different rates, but is it normal for my 3 month old to be half the size my oldest was at that age? It seems like such a big difference, but I'm caring for him in the exact same way that I did my first (without making any beginners mistakes like last time)...

    Coccidia count? Are meds needed? (pics included)

    Yes, she just emailed me again just now.

    Coccidia count? Are meds needed? (pics included)

    She actually just emailed me back again. She's SO nice!

    Coccidia count? Are meds needed? (pics included)

    That makes me feel a lot better. I'm just so nervous because Stewart is so small, but I'm confident that I can take care of this right. :)

    Coccidia count? Are meds needed? (pics included)

    She emailed back and said "If you calculate the dosage for 24 grams it comes to .0096 or rounded it comes to .01 , the same dose as a 25 g dragon. Toltrazuril is very mild and safe, so I wouldn’t hesitate to treat him." so I'm feeling much better about this. I also sent her a picture to...

    So a 24 gram dragon can't be treated?
