    bearding in/after a bath

    We seem to always be trying to get Katie to poop. It's exhausting, actually. We recently took her to the vet and, after almost three weeks, she pooped as soon as he put her in the tub. Turns out, we weren't running the water near deep enough for her to swim. The next time, at home, it worked...

    I hope this works!

    OK, Katie hasn't pooped in almost two weeks. She's done this before. Olive oil worked once, a bath worked last time...this time nothing seems to be working. So I'm reading here wondering if she needs to lay eggs. She's never even seen another beardie before. But the people we got her from...

    Should've listened to you people!

    Thanks for the link. I had heard the carpet was expensive but it's not really...and if it can be washed I might give it a try. Poor Katie, I wish her mommy knew what she was doing! But I'd be so hopeless without this site!

    Should've listened to you people!

    We got Katie back in November. She was 18 months old and had always been on sand. I didn't want to change anything at the same time she was changing homes. I tried tile on half her tank and the slate tile I had cracked and I just didn't know if it was safe. I finally decided she'd been on...

    Beardy not pooping but eating.

    WOW, that worked! I did a search and found this thread. On my way out to pick the kids up from school, I gave Katie some apples dipped in olive oil. By the time I got back just now (45 minutes later), she had POOPED! It had been about a week so I was starting to worry...yea that was a week's...

    Lighting nightmare

    I'm so tired of this. We've BROKEN about $70 work of light bulbs, not to mention one fixture, since we got Katie just a couple months ago. I'm so angry I can't think right now. Previous owners were using a flourescent bulb & fixture that was about 18 months old - probably no UVB coming out of...

    Katie wont eat her crickets!

    We got Katie about a month ago. She's 18 months old. We didn't change anything about her set up from what we got from her previous family. We've been having a hard time trying to get her to eat veggies. But every other day, my daughter would give her crickets and she's been gobbling them up...

    Relocation to New and bigger tank... But acting CRAZY!!!

    We want to get Katie a bigger tank for Christmas. We just adopted her but we also bought their tank and so she's got the exact same set up she's always had - but it's been three weeks since she's been living with us so I'm sure she's still adjusting. I haven't wanted to change anything...

    Another question - beard black, digging, not eating right

    She's calmed down again now. The people we adopted her from said she laid eggs a couple times before. She's in the same tank she's always been in with the same setup (we want a bigger one, maybe as a Christmas gift for dd, but need to find a place and didn't want to force drastic changes on...

    Another question - beard black, digging, not eating right

    OK, Katie is 18 months old. I feel like all I do is ask silly questions. We've had her about three weeks. She'll eat crickets and worms, she ate some turnip greens from my daughter early on but we can't get her to eat any veggies now at all. She digs sometimes but that's only been a little...

    More fiesty = healthier or unhappy

    I think they tried to take good care of her. If she's trying to brumate, does she need something she can crawl up under to hide? She only has the one driftwood in her tank now that she gets up on top of to bask. She needs a bigger tank. We were trying not to change anything drastically on...

    More fiesty = healthier or unhappy

    We've only had Katie about two weeks. She's 18 months old. When we first got her, she was so calm and sweet and would just sit there when we held her. The people we adopted her from gave us her UV light and said it had "just" blown out - so I realized when I went to the pet store that it...

    What should she be eating?

    She's eating turnip greens - but mostly just when they're hand fed from my daughter. And I don't think a lot - nothing to compare it to. Her previous owner said she loves sweet potatoes but we're not having any luck with that or the squash. She did eat some live crickets yesterday - maybe 4...
