Radley (13m) is going nuts. She'll spend roughly three hours a day (sometimes more) climbing the plants/walls in her viv. I'll take her down and she'll climb right back up. I swear she's part gecko lol. She used to do it a bit when she was young, I thought nothing of it, but the past few weeks...

I upped his temps a little, just lowered the light an inch and that made a few degrees difference. And I blended a strawberry with water, then strained it through a coffee filter and gave him that water. He LOVED it. He kept drinking and had about 5ml, and 6ml today. So I think I'm going to...

also, he has lost a bit of weight, but he was brumating on and off since October to mid January.

Temps: 79 throughout, 90-94 in his basking spot. depends on the time of day here. digital with probe and a temp gun reptisun 10, roughly four months old, and his basking spot is 8" away, the rest of the viv is 12-16" away. I dust his crickets with calcium five times a week and multivitamins...

My older beardie has been really bothering me lately. He HATES being misted, this has been going on for about a month, maybe even longer. I've been stressed from school/exams, so my keeping track of time has been way off. He won't drink anything unless I use a syringe and give it to him. When I...

I'm not sure if this is related, but the past two days he has been twitching oddly. Mainly his right hind leg and left front leg (arm?) It's like he goes to wave, then kind of changes his mind like a little hip hop dancer, but more twitchy and without music lol. He also hasn't had a b.m in a...

I just want to update here. He has had two really bad b.m's and each one had little green pieces in it, but I assume there is still quite a bit in there. But he seems fine now, not acting differently at all. but I'm still bathing him daily and giving him a mL or oil everyday.

I'll pick up some applesauce today after school. How much should I give him? I was reading somewhere else (don't remember what site) that said on occasions like this it's okay to give iceberg lettuce because it gives watery stools?! I figured I'd ask you guys first. I would feel weird giving...

I just noticed that my beardie has been eating one of his fake plants. There are quite a few chunks gone. I honestly have no idea when he started doing it or if he did it all at once. Just happened to look at the plant today for a cleaning. (haven't cleaned them in awhile) It's the "aloe" plant...

so, recently I discovered that my older beardie likes to sleep on pillows. We had a (clean) pillow on the floor near his viv and sometimes we leave the door open a bit when we're home in case he wants to come out and he's been sleeping on the pillow heaps instead of on his favorite log...

do you know where I could get those!? I order from bugorder and they don't have them (we've never had any problems with them) so I'd like a reputable site please :)

I keep hearing different things... I've been feeding my beardies kale for months!! I haven't noticed any problems but now that I've heard more bads than goods I'm worried. I do mix mustard and dandelion greens but they prefer kale the most of out everything. even more than squash!!! so can...

Thanks for the links, but I found a few yesterday. One was a threaded email between a woman and the "bug police" haha and it said that dubias/other insects (wasn't really paying attention to those) are illegal to import, own, breed, etc. And you can't get a permit. But I know a few people who do...

I might be too late... but Thomas Cook let my friend take her snake. I think she had to pay extra for it, but it may be worth it. AND they go directly to London Gatwick from Vancouver.

I keep hearing that dubias are illegal to own in Canada and especially my province (Alberta). Does anyone know where I could find out the actual law? Google just keeps bringing me to the same question I am asking haha I know for a fact that Alberta is pretty tight on "pest control" we can't even...
