    bad bulbs?

    first bulb seemed to be perfectly fine... it lasted 6 months, it was still working fine, my lizard was really healthy, eating well, active etc. but I replaced it just for safety purposes (they say it doesn't emit much UVB after 6+ months, even if the bulbs still producing visible light) I got...

    Beardie activities

    My Dragon doesn't get much activity (aside from running around in circles in his viv) I feel like -most of the time-, he's just as they say 'a piece of furniture' I do take him out to watch the occasional movie with me, he's easy to handle and I give him baths daily But how long can he stay...

    Where can I buy bulk larvae

    I've got phoenix worms before, and I'm sure they're nutritious... but they just didn't seem cost-effective (he could easily eat two cups in one meal and still have a couple crickets to boot, they're hardly a snack) I've been looking at horn worms (great lakes horn worms) $10 for 12 horn worms...

    really big poop + blood

    My beardie didn't poop yesterday, wouldn't eat, and didn't bask much (i think - possibly due to changes in his terrarium?) so I decided to give him a bath today to see if he just needed help passing. after trying desperately to escape the bath, he finally produced a MEGA dumper, 25% larger...

    Repti-Sun 10.0

    I'm curious, my beardie went for about 2 days without heat and 2 weeks without a UVB light, because the pet store sold me a compact florescent (that was OBVIOUSLY blinding my beardie) and a heat wave lamp rated for a tank 4x the size of the one I had (I told them it was only a 10gal they gave...

    bearded dragon lifespan

    How long do beardies actually live? I've read everything from 3 years, to upwards of 20+ years that is quite a large variable in their age, most pages say 10-12 years should be the 'average' life-span, but then some say 3-10 years, while others say 15-19 years if properly taken care of. Where...

    Can worms cause impaction?

    I bought some redworms, and have fed a couple of them to my baby pogona, and it just occurred to me--- that worms eat dirt, and dirt causes impaction... luckily I've only fed him 3 but do worms actually eat dirt, or do they just ingest nutrients from it? and can this cause my baby impaction?

    Health benefits of night lights?

    I have read that temperatures at night can safely drop to between 60-70 degrees for bearded dragons, but is this healthy for them? I was wondering - is there a benefit to having a heat wave lamp or coated incandescent bulb run at night? I'm assuming the reptile would still sleep at night even...

    Supplement questions?

    If I buy phoenix worms (aka. soldier fly maggots) their calcium supply is supposedly 24x that of a single cricket, anywise the question is, if I use a repti-sun w/ phoenix worms, is it really necessary to still add calcium supplement, or would adding it just be going overboard on the calcium...
