I'm pretty sure your beardie doesn't have any calcium deficiencies - it's common for them to stretch their back legs out lazily while relaxing. Many people on here refer to it as their 'sexy legs', and you shouldn't be worried, unless her back legs appear lazy ALL the time.

Agh! Really, how irresponsible can some pet stores be, to hardly meet the basic requirements of the animals they're selling? I'm sure a lot of you here already know this, but those people probably won't sell much if all of their reptiles look malnourished and lethargic (of course, maybe that's...

Oh, wow! :( That's terrible, and a tad shocking, seeing as I've ordered from petmountain numerous times with no problems or damage to my items. Of course, it had to of been UPS who caused that. Lets hope they'll make getting a new one easy on you, and not send you through hoops, like some...

I'm in the same boat, guh. Since purchasing Karma two weeks ago, she's had a very scarce appetite, yet she suddenly decided to eat 10 crickets yesterday. I thought 'hey, she's finally starting to eat!', however, she's been refusing them today, no matter how many times I offer. All of my temps...

Lets hope I won't have to resort to force feeding, hah. n__n; My local vet, the one who I've always taken my dogs to, owns a 5 year-old beardie himself, totally healthy, so I always have him to go to in case of emergencies. I'd love to show Karma to you all, but sadly my camera has been broken...

Yes, well, just before her bath (about thirty minutes ago), I decided to offer her some Phoenix Worms - to my delight, she scarfed down two, but wasn't interested in eating any more. The shedding on her tail seems to be going well, and now that she appears to be slowly regaining her appetite, I...

Ah, well, I owe all my beardie knowledge to the people here at BeardedDragon.org! I made sure I learned everything I could from people with first-hand experience before buying Karma, since I've always been rather skeptical of what pet stores recommend (and to think they told me to put her on...

So, we'll get straight to the point. On Wednesday morning of this week, I received my baby beardie - my first beardie ever - in the mail from LLLreptile.com. Abiding by the papers that were tucked in the package, I put her in her home and refrained from feeding her for two hours while she...
