i was just wondering how you guys prepare your poo for it to go to the vet for a fecal. do you put it in a baggy or cup or what? is it a prob if there's sand on the poo? wow i never thought i'd have to worry about something like this! :lol:

it sounds like your doing the right things- do you still have newspaper taped to the glass of his viv? if you took it down you may want to put it back up until he gets older- how old is he, by the way? i would say that popping some greens in his mouth if he gapes at you is a good idea, that's...

i definitely agree with mpinsky. for a lil while when i started my new job i cut back on handling from everyday to every other or every two days and noticed that if i didn't handle him every single day, my boy draco would gape at me before letting me take him out. so i made it a point to take...

hey all, so i just put my five month old boy in his bigger 40 gallon viv and i got a new fake "log" or branch to put in it, but my question is, is this ok to use as a basking spot? it's under the light (it's a longish branch thingy, not real wood though it's fake) and the hottest spot is right...

haha those shower stories are awesome! i'm considering trying that out with my guy, he is five months and really has never taken a liking to baths, i have to hold him in it or else every other second he's trying to jump out! and he never poops in the bath either...weird beardie!

I use phoenix worms as a staple, and wax worms/mealies/crix as occasional feeders. He doesn't eat much salad but I give him greens every other day...do I need to start giving them every day? I'm also taking him to the vet soon so hopefully they can tell me what's going on. I'll try to limit the...

I have had a reptisun 10.0 since mid April, and I've noticed that in the past week my beardie's appetite has not been nearly what it was before. He used to go through 40 to 60 worms a day and now he's barely eating 20, and that's only when I hand feed him each and every worm (spoiled brat!)...

i'm no expert or anything but it seems like he's doing fine...my beardie is about 13 inches at five months but wasn't a runt or anything he was 6.5 inches when i got him back in april and i think he was around 6 weeks old. have you taken him to the vet? as long as he's healthy and happy i...

i can't tell you as an expert or anything as i'm fairly new to beardie keeping (i've had my boy since april) but i'll just tell you from my experience: my beardie is about 13 inches at almost five months old, i just moved him to his bigger viv but i'm pretty sure he could've stayed in the other...

thanks for such a great response! i don't know what i'd do without this site!

hey all, my baby is getting bigger now, about 13 inches long, he's almost five months old and i was wondering if i can start giving him superworms and also how to gutload them if i need to...is it the same as gutloading crix? he's been on a staple of phoenix worms with meal worms, wax worms and...

sounds like they could be the same; pheonix worms are the larvea of the soldier fly, which may be where flukers is got the name from instead of calling them pheonix worms...see if they have pictures, and if they are white maggots than they are probably the same exact thing. also since the...

haha great comparison :lol: so when/what age do they grow out of it?! haha i can't wait for him to just be a chill lizard!

glad to hear your baby is doing well! i got my bd in the mail like two months ago, incidentally his name is Draco we sometimes calll him drake too 8) it certainly is weird when a box shows up on your doorstep with the words "harmless live lizard" written on the sides! the delivery guy looked...

glad all is going well for you and your beardie now! about the less eating thing, this is normal since they're still getting used to you and the new home- my dragon didn't start eating hardily for a week i'd say, then he gradually increased his appetite, now he's up to forty worms a day :shock...
