    Bleeding tail tip

    Hi there again, I had some retain shed problems with the end of the tail inch and quarter. The tissue became dead to the tip. She's a silkback bearded dragon. Everything I done lately has helped with the shedding. But today I feed her and walked away for a while. Within that time inch of the tip...

    I'm a new owner, any general advice?

    Wow 150 watt at 99 degrees for basking. I have a 50 gallon fish tank with a dimmer switch that am using a 150 watt also. Keeping a eye on the temps is a daily task because just like outside temps change. Summer is 70's in home and winter is usually high 60's or it is in my home. That will affect...

    I'm a new owner, any general advice?

    Tip I forgot repti carpet holds a lot of bacteria you know like when it's pooped on. Washing it I heard still keeps a odor. If you want try easy liner good stuff just cut to fit. A lot easier to clean and doesn't hold bacteria. Beardies lay around and could get parasites though the vent. Once I...

    I'm a new owner, any general advice?

    The current wattage for one bulb 99 degrees max. What is the wattage for it and if you up the wattage should be right 105 degrees. I actually thought your temps were good. 110-115 degrees for babies I thought was the trick for youngsters. Is your UVB blocked in anyway like mesh? Because with a...

    I'm a new owner, any general advice?

    I would recommend to use one heating bulb once your dragon is about a year old. You can try reptiworms as far as I know there similar to Phoenix worms. Your dragon is getting much water from the food offered. I recommend misting only during shedding. It is strange you had your beardie for a...

    Thanks his eyes were kind of sunken in when I first seen him. My wife mentioned citrus type or that's what the pervious owner said. Then the previous owner hatched him from unwanted eggs. Seems a little weird but I know he's over a year old. I can see if my wife can get in touch with the...

    For years I've wanted an orange beardie like this

    Very nice girl you got there looks like a colored leatherback with the way the scales look. I would recommend checking hoobly.com for the topic owner. I like the silkback/leatherbacks there cool and colorful as well. I really hope my girl looks like yours someday.

    Dubia Roaches???

    Dubi are very good and there's a thing crickets can pass to your dragon. Dubi are easier to feed and depends on the size but dubi protein wise are like 4 crickets in one dubi.
