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...

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 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)...

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...

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...

It's been a while since I've had such a tiny baby, but I remember Norbert ALWAYS being hungry. I try to feed my new baby Stewart 3 times each day, but he'll usually only eat once in the middle of the day, and sometimes a couple more dubia later at dinner time. Is this alright? I know their...

It's been a while since I've had a tiny baby to take care of (and never this tiny!), and I want to make sure I remember everything correctly. Sir Stewart is around 6 weeks old with a nice pudgy belly, bright eyes, and beautiful colors! He's from TND Dragons, so of course he's wonderful. I...

This is probably a stupid question, but I need to keep my probe thermometer on my new babies basking spot because Im having some issues with the temps fluctuating. He keeps knocking it down, so right now I have a piece of masking tape holding it still. Is it alright to have this right under the...

Finally got my new baby! Introducing Sir Stewart. :D I picked him up today from Tom of TND Dragons. It was love at first sight! He is a micro-leather out of Lord Stanley and Penny, with beautiful oranges and blacks. He's absolutely adorable and SO tiny!! Especially compared to my Norbert who...

After a lot of confusion and work my DIY platforms are finally done!! Thank you to my wonderful boyfriend for doing most of the work! :roll: What do you think? Norbert's new basking spot: Lily's soon to be home: I cant decide if I like the house here or here What do you think?

I've heard the term "paradox spot" once or twice, but I have no idea what they are, why they appear, if it's morph specific or anything. I started thinking about them because I noticed these random, small black spots appearing in different places on Norbert recently. Could these be paradox...

I posted about this in the enclosures section but haven't gotten any advice, so I thought I'd try it here. I'm making custom ledges and stairs for two enclosures but before I go any further I really want to make sure that my materials will be safe once completely dry. I'm using heavy duty liquid...

I'm in the process of redoing Norbert's enclosure, and I know the UVB needs to be 6-8 inches away from the basking spot, but is it harmful if, in one place in the enclosure, the UVB is about 3 inches away? Will this hurt his eyes? I added a bed on top of his hide, and he seems to really enjoy...

Me and my boyfriend decided to make two different ledges for my two enclosures. We both have completely different ideas (his is better and I'll probably ask him to duplicate it for the second viv :roll: ) Let me know what you think, and if the materials we're using are safe!! I'm a little...

I'm picking up my new little girl in the next couple weeks, and in the mean time I've been re-researching like crazy. I always come across the threads on here about egg laying issues and egg binding, but I never gave any of it too much thought because I only have a male. Well, now that I'm...

Recently I've been feeling intense jealousy when reading intro threads with baby beardies. Being that Christmas AND my birthday are coming up, I've been seriously considering asking my loved ones to get me beardie supplies for a new baby. Now, I don't want to just jump into this, but I can't get...

I picked up this enclosure off a listing on craigslist. Its a hand made, wooden enclosure that measures slightly bigger than a 20gal. I was thinking of using it for either a leopard gecko or turning it on its side for a crestie. I was trying to decide if it needs more ventilation. Currently, its...

I just realized that I bought the regular Reptaid, not the extra large kind for bigger animals. The dosing for the regular only goes up to 200g. If I wanted to use it, would I need to buy some of the XL kind, or can I adjust the dosing for my 500+ gram dragon? I'm just wondering, I'm not...

OK, so I know that there are no breeders within the US that have tested their colonies and guarantee them to be Adeno free, but I was wondering if we could have a thread the includes people who have tested their dragons and received negative results, and the breeders that they purchased from...

Has anyone ever tried Repashy Savory Stew with their beardies? Any opinions on it? It's supposed to be a food source for omnivorous reptiles such as bearded dragons and skinks, and I was thinking about trying it. I want to mix it up with greens and see if I can encourage my Norbert to eat more...
