What a mess!!

I cam home from work yesterday to quite a messy beardie... From a few feet away it almost looked like he had fallen asleep in her salad bowl at some point throughout the day, and was now running around with dandelion leaves stuck to her.

As I got closer, I noticed that all of her walls, glass front, and 80% of the tile substrate was absolutely covered in poop! And Iggy was basking, head high with all 4 feet black all the way up to her elbows, tummy and tail were totally caked on... And she had the nerve to give me the stink eye as I sat there wondering how I was going to clean this! I swear it was like leaving a child with finger paint loose in your house, only to come back to a "Look what I did!" :mrgreen:

After 45 min of my wife and I taking turns bathing with a soft toothbrush, and enclosue cleaning... we still wern't able to clean her off properly. And I suspect her skin will be a little discoloured until her next shed.

She's in perfect health so no worries there...

Moral of this story: No matter how much your beardie likes WAX WORMS, Don't feed them as a staple for 2 days in a row! (Ran out of crix)

Thank goodness you had someone to help you with that. When that happens to me everyone turns green :puke: and runs away pointing and laughing. I only have 2 right now thats been doing it at least once a week lol :puke: I use the toothbrush every where and we have one of those hoses on our kitchen faucet thats a lifesaver.

They can be quite the little stinkers cant they lol

Oh my goodness.
I honestly have to say...I'm glad Toni doesn't do that too often. I do find it every now and then, but it's like every once in a great while. Thank God.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
