Mine keeps himself entertained by playing with his reflection, and by trying to eat our pet tarantula through the glass. They're not pack animals, so I don't think they really have the need to be entertained like a dog or other pack animal would. When I get home, then he gets to do the fun stuff...

I went and bought some soft stones from home depot today to line Hobbes' cage with. They seem good to use as substrate/liner (each one is 3 by 6 inches), but I was concerned about dust as well as parasites, so I sprayed them with bleach, rinsed them, and then soaked them in the bath tub for 30...

With Hobbes I lightly pinch his nostrils with the fleshy part of my finger tips and, with his nostrils still covered, pull his mouth open with my other hand and then just put the syringe in. The vet showed me a cool trick where you can put them in a trance by putting your fingers just in front...

Do you have pictures of his habitat that you created? That sounds really cool. Where in your house do you keep him?

I got Hobbes on Christmas Eve last year, and for the next week until we took the tree down he climbed it every chance he got. I lost him for a half hour today and found him on the part of the tree that looks out the window over looking the backyard!

So lately Hobbes has been "glass dancing" a lot. He will "dance" and then run back and forth, stop and do it again. It is all at his reflection. I have seen him head bob at his reflection which I understand his him showing dominance, but what instinct drives "glass dancing". I give him plenty of...

I think it is the movement that makes them curious/attracted to something. Mine did the same thing when he saw a beta fish at my parent's house. Also, sometimes in the morning, I will put my finger in his greens and wiggle them around which really catches his attention- he will start looking...

Hobbes came out of brumation on Saturday morning and has been crazy ever since (he is about 18 months old). He has been glass dancing, head bobbing, black bearding, eating like crazy, and on Saturday he literally ran all over the first floor of our house for an hour. So I would say your buddy is...

Thanks! Glad to find that out before I started using the bulb. The one I have been using is a Zilla which according to the article is harmful. He has been to the vet a few times and she has never said anything about him looking unhealthy, but glad I will be getting him to a new bulb before...

Hey everyone, I will need to change Hobbes' uvb bulb in a couple of months. The new bulb I bought is an Exo-Terra repti glo 2.0 bulb. It's a 36 inch T-10 size bulb. The sooner I can replace the old bulb, the better, but unfortunately I cannot find anywhere that sells a fixture that fits this...

Hi everyone, I'm Joe and the picture below is of Hobbes, my beardie who I have had since last Christmas Eve. This picture was taken of him by my fiancee when we were driving to the vet last month. Anyway, we just wanted to say hi.
