Great idea! Thanks!

Something very similar has happened to my Beardie and I have been told it is normal. Ever since he got around 8 months his appetite increased DOUBLE and he was eating a TON! Since he got bigger, I switched him to the medium/large sized crickets and since there is such a big size difference...

Hi everyone! Well, Baby is getting bigger and bigger, and is outgrowing his hammock that I bought for him at PetsMart. I would like to make him a bigger one by myself, but I am not sure what material to use and how to start. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make my own? Thanks! :D

I am feeding him crickets right now and put a bowl of collard greens in his tank every day but he refuses to touch them! I have tried adding meal worms to trick him to eat his salad, ive added fruit to make it more appealing, but he won't eat it! I know that they are supposed to eat more...

Hi everyone! My beardie is turning 1 in June, and lately I have noticed his appetite has decreased. I know that as beardies get older you don't have to feed them everyday, so I was wondering if that is the case, than when they get older they also don't want to eat everyday. He goes about 2 days...

Thanks for your responses! My vet is actually the one who told me to start feeding my dragon mealworms to help him gain some weight....anyways, what are the best types of worms to feed beardies, and where can I get them? I think Petsmart only sells mealworms and superworms, and I can't get them...

I started to feed my beardie a couple meal worms a day and I'd come home from work and my beardie ate them up...or so I thought. Today I put 2 in a lid and they both wiggled out and when I cleaned my beardie's tank today I found 5 under the tile....I have seen my beardie eat them, but he won't...

I just changed the UVB in December and there is no change in the basking temp...

I honestly have no idea if he is about to shed....he hasn't shed in awhile and he is small for his age which I am a bit concerned about as well...I have all the right temps and I dust his crickets with calcium and multivitamins and he has a Repti Sun 10.0 UVB so I am not sure what is going on...

Hi! I am a bit concerned about my beardie right now because for the past week he has been falling asleep around 12:30 in the afternoon even after sleeping from 6:30 pm-6:00 AM and he just lays on the bottom of his tank. The good signs however is that he is still eating and pooping(only in water)...

Wow, okay, that's what I thought I had heard before, that some beardie's only poop in the bath. I think mine has got into that habit....I guess it's not a big deal except for the fact that it is a little time consuming where it takes a half an hour for him to poop and get massages from me, but...

Thanks for responding! Well, at this point my dragon isn't pooping even ONCE a week until I give him a warm water soak in the bath and massage his belly for about 20 minutes..he never used to mind going in his viv he had a special spot he went in but now he just keeps getting constipated and I...

Hi everyone....well I have a situation where someone told me I could start to feed my beardie larger crickets and he ended up getting really constipated and I had to take him to the vet for the vet to help him poop because nothing I was doing was working...anyways, ever since then he will not...

Okay, thanks so much!!

He is probably the size of a pencil right now or maybe a bit smaller. He is acting a little bit tired....He used to bask in his hammock a lot and now he just lays under it like he is trying to hide. And thank you for your reassurance on that little bug I saw in the cricket keeper..hopefully...
