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...

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...

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...

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...

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!

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...

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...

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...

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)...

Yes, she just emailed me again just now.

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

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. :)

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...

Just emailed :)

So a 24 gram dragon can't be treated?

I might go ahead and just buy some meds, but the dosing chart they have on the site starts at dragons that are 50 grams. Stewarts only 24 grams, so I'm still not sure if it's safe to treat him.

Yeah, thats were my kit for doing DIY fecals is from. I dont want to buy medicine until I'm positive what to buy and if I really need to though. I'm pretty sure I need Ponazuril just from searching around on here though.

I just did a fecal on my Stewart and I'm 99% sure he has Coccidia. I tried to take a few pictures through the microscope, and they're not very good, but I'm hoping they're good enough for someone to see if this count is too high and needs to be treated. If so, what medicine should be used and...

I have a Reptisun 10.0 tube and a 100 watt basking bulb. His basking temps are always between 100-103 and his cool side is about 83-85. I measure with a temp gun. :) I think he's got the post brumation crazies. He's been running around bobbing and constantly wants out of his enclosure so he...

Lately Norbert has developed a fascination with his UVB and I'm not sure what to do. A few times everyday I catch him trying to leap at/hang on his UVB bulb. For now it's been ok because I'm home from school on winter break, but when class resumes next week he'll be by himself more often. I'm...
