    Stopped eating greens

    A long time ago My beardie stopped eating his greens (Romaine lettuce) I countered it by just prying his mouth open with the tip of my index finger and placing a small piece of lettuce i ripped off into his mouth next to his tongue, he takes care of the rest. But I feel like he should be eating...

    Staying away from the basking lamp

    I got him in August of 2010 when he was itty bitty. Now he's about a foot long (give or take a couple inches).

    Staying away from the basking lamp

    Today I woke up to find my Beardie not in his usual basking spot. He put a lot of distance between himself and the heat produced by the lamp. Now he doesn't look ill or anything, he's attentive and looks quite well. I'm just surprised by this sudden change of behavior. I put him on the log he...

    Water containment units and overfeeding??

    Hello everyone! It's been a while since I posted here but I've always found the greatest help from these boards. Anyway, I noticed my beardie, Ziggy, being quite lazy today and since it's nearing winter and he/she is a little over a year old I was thinking it's time for his/her first brumation...

    Out of tank pooping and jumping off stuff

    Alright, sounds simple enough. And no i haven't, seems silly but in this situation it is probably the best solution, and he's a juvenile. Thanks!

    Out of tank pooping and jumping off stuff

    So basically what's happening is that almost every time i take my beardie out of his enclosure he poops. It doesn't matter where he is too, it can be on my desk, expensive DJ equipment, floor, my pants, my friends pants... I know that when he has to go, he has to go. But it's almost as if he...

    Starting over

    Thank you all very much for your advice. I took a gallon of water and a 4th cup of bleach and sprayed everything with it. My only concern now is the log. I drenched it in bleach water and I've rinsed it a while lot of times and the smell doesn't seem to be going away. It's dampened but not gone...

    We honestly do not know why Zeus died. And that is great to hear, Steam will sanitize? Or is it only good for killing that one virus??

    Starting over

    transferring illness?

    As substrate i have reptile carpet. and he has a small bark of driftwood, he doesn't climb it (he doesn't climb anything anymore) so I just have to set him there for basking. Right now we don't have a UVB because we're waiting on the reptisun bulb to come in which should be on Wednesday.
