Beardie won't drink

oscarthebeardie · Mar 22, 2020

I've had my beardie for a little over 2 years now. About a year ago she stopped drinking completely, not even in baths. She seems to be fine and healthy but it's just a little concerning. I mist her cage to get her to drink that way but I'm still worried she isn't getting enough water. If anyone knows what's going on I'd be very appreciative to know and help her.

I bet it's getting all the water it needs, based on what you said. I have only had mine for a month and a half. I do the misting on her, as well as on her vegetables. She has a dish of water in her enclosure, I've never seen her drink out of, and only once out of her bath.

Are her poops dry and chalky looking? Does she eat her salads? You can rinse the greens before you serve them and she will get moisture from them and make sure your gut loading the insects- carrots are good for hydrating insects -- also horn worms are good for hydrating too

Mine is going on 7 months, and has never taken a drink in his life. He gets all the water he needs from his greens & num-numz, and excretes a LOT of excess water with feces. Beware the flood.
