I live in valley but can travel to Bay Area. Although I love our vet for basic care im worried we are dealing with an aneurysm and I want a vet that is experienced in case we decide to do surgery. Our bd is almost 12 so im not sure if we will go that route but I want someone really qualified...

I'll have to get a copy on Friday of Xerxes blood work and post it but the vet said that Xerxes is on the lower end of the normal range of his calcium levels. His levels were at a 12 I think she said the range was 7-50. I've been giving him the liquid calcium 5 days a week since I took him in...

Today I went out add some veggie scraps to my compost pile and much to my surprise I have BSF larva everywhere. My compost is actually moving like crazy and these suckers are HUGE! :shock: I will have to take a pic of them and post it. I'm curious if I could feed them to my dragons. There...

I have a dragon that I took in today that I can't keep. He is going to need vet care but I would like to make sure he goes to a rescue or experienced keeper that will really take care of him. If I can't find him a home here then I will place with one of the rescues close to me. This guy is...

I've seen threads like this before and I love what I learn from them. I'm not a newbie when it comes to caring for dragons but everyones got a shortcut that makes life so much easier so whats yours? When it comes to food that is probably the most time consuming for me so its much easier to...

Ok I don't know how many of you have seen my post of my lost beardie but today animal control called me because they thought they had our little guy. It turned out to be another dragon that wasn't in the best shape. I wanted to take him but thought it wasn't the best of ideas and my hubby said...

We lost our little man on Friday OUTSIDE! I had let Kratos out of his cage because he was going stir crazy. He wanted to go outside...now that the weather has been nice I put him out in his cage everyday....however friday I just let him roam in the house because I was in a hurry. NOW I wish I...

So those of you who us a calcium supplemt without D3 what do you do about the D3? I use a mvb and I now have my dragon on liquid calcium and I was going to give my friend my old calcium without D3 because she isn't using any calcium at all.

Do any of you have experience with black poo? My previous dragon had dark brown poo but never black. Kratos has had black poo for the last two days and when I say black I mean charcoal black. I guess it throughs me off because I know that black can mean blood in stools when is comes to humans...

It seems our Kratos is a picky boy.....please tell me there is light at the end of the tunnel haha. He eats roaches as his staple but lately it seems like he's tired of them. I try to spice things up with other feeders but the only ones he wants anything to do with are supers and wax worms. I...

I'm really becoming frustrated. Kratos was treated for parasites with panacur and ponazuril in Sept. I can't get his urates to soften up since then. I may get one or two days of soft urates but otherwise they are gritty or a hard. His urates are soft if he poos every day otherwise they are...

I want to move my roaches out to the garage, because I really want to get another beardie. Right now I keep the roach bin and feeding bin in the bottom enclosure and everything stays a perfect temp. However, as I said i want another beardie so I need to move the roaches out to the garage. Should...

Mega-Rey self ballast bulbs are back in stock for anyone that is interested. I can't wait for the EB bulbs to be back in stock, then I'm going to place an order along with a new 6.5 uvi meter for testing. I have the 6.2 meter now.

Well I love our tile except for the fact it keeps chipping. I have found a couple of small bits in Kratos' enclosure which bothers me. I worry that he may ingest it. Do you have issues with your slate chipping?

I think with all the silkies out there we need a forum dedicated just to silkbacks! I see questions quite often asking what their needs are. I think it could be a good spot for current owners of silks and people who are preparing to bring one into their home. What do you all think?

Should I try some liquid calcium? Kratos is 7mons, ever since giving the Ponazuril and panacur his urates have been semi hard and grainy. He goes in Mon to the vet to try and figure this out. I give lots of oral fluids and he gets baths. His stools usually have a bit of extra water around them...

So I got our lab results back today and it said >30 pinworm >30 coccidia at first I was wondering if it was a 3+ because I've only ever seen 1+ through 4 ever mentioned. Then I did a search on here and someone said it was a 30+ count but I can't find that info anywhere else. What do these...

Kratos went to the vet yesterday and we got the lab results back today. Lab changed the way they list the counts???? No ++ counts instead pinworms listed as >30 Coccidia list as >30. Hopefully you will understand that. All I know is on the phone she said it was high but I didn't ask the counts...

We got our little man Sept 10th he weighed 148grams and was 14 3/4 in length. I think I measured his squirmy butt wrong or he hasn't grown anymore in length yet.  His hatch date was approximately April 9th. He has settled in nicely with us and is eating like a piggy. He chows down about 70-80...

We lost our sweet seven yr old Jazz a few weeks ago. It was a very sad and heartbreaking especially to our youngest son. This past weekend we visited a local breeder http://www.rockinardragonz.com and our son picked out Kratos. His parents are Diva and Xanthos. Kratos is five months old he is 14...
