Okay. I'll go buy a new UVB today. I know you guys try to be helpful, but the way some of you talk to newbies with questions is a little insulting. That's all I'll say.

How old is your dragon? 2 and a half years old - said this above How long have you had your dragon? 2 months - said this above How long is your dragon? I don't know but he was severely underfed so he's small for an adult. What is the sex of your dragon? Male. What size enclosure do you have your...

Yoshi is 2 and a half years old.. adopted him exactly two months ago from a less than optimal situation. His lighting is fine, but he has a loss of appetite lately. He has always gone over to his bowl and taken a bite or two, but he hasn't gone to the bathroom in 3 or 4 days. Normally he goes...

I do, too! I love how it gets bright and vibrant when he's happy.

I'm already having lots of fun with him!!

That's how I was when I got Romeo, my baby. Babies are so hard to care for, but they're just so darn cute!! I'm sure if you read up on everything this site offers, Brodie will be just fine though! :D

Yeah, I'd be irked, too. Yoshi, who I rescued three weeks ago, was supposedly "spoiled to death" by his previous owner, except she thought he was a she, she had the lighting and setup all wrong, she was totally feeding him the wrong things (and not enough of them), she never bathed him, etc...

Haha mine does this too!

It counts as a rescue! :D I adopted Yoshi off of Craig'slist too. Like Dusty, Yoshi was in a tank with the entirely wrong setup. I was shocked he could live the first two years of his life with the wrong diet and setup. But three weeks of proper care and tlc and he is thriving! Kudos to you for...

You need to feed the crickets, too. The nice thing about that though is you can just feed them the fruits and veggies beardies eat.

Thank you so much for this - I was feeding Yoshi Kale almost every day. :(

I found Yoshi on Craigslist and rescued him from someone who was moving out of state.

Awesome! I was really excited to rescue my beardie but I had no idea I would be this fascinated and in love with him. Post pictures! :D

Did you buy anything to gut load / feed your crickets? At Petsmart I buy those orange cube things and put enough of them in the Cricket Keeper to keep them alive. I buy 75 crickets at a time and only maybe 5 die. I'm sure it isn't bad to feed the dead ones to your beardie, I just am paranoid...

Hi there! I also am a new beardie mom. I rescued a 2 year old 3 weeks ago. Enjoy him- they're truly amazing creatures!
