    Not a fan of veggies.

    I've been offering malice finely shredded romaine lettuce and carrots every day and he doesn't seem to take an interest in them. He loves crickets and absolutely adores super worms but when it comes to his greens he doesn't seem to care at all. I was wondering what I can do to inspire him to...

    Gut loading?

    I've heard this mentioned multiple times and I'm still unsure about what this means. I'm assuming it has something to do with feeding your feeders but I was wondering what the best thing to feed them with is?

    Chilling in the water?

    Well as I walked in my room today I noticed that my beardie had gotten pretty comfy in his water dish.I was wondering what might have compelled Malice to be chilling in his water dish. Could be he too hot, feeling for a bath or just plain wacky?

    When to start on pellets?

    So I picked up some Zoo med natural juvenile bearded dragon food and I was just wondering when is the ideal time to start Malice on pellets? He hasn't really taken an interest in crickets as he only eats 2-3 a day so I was wondering whether or not the pellets would be a viable replacement?

    Impacts of UVB Coil

    Right now my terrarium is sporting a Reptiglo 10.0 UVB coil bulb, I've read enough in the forums to realize that these bulbs are not ideal for our dragons. I recently picked up a a zoo med compact top to house this bulb but I've now realized that I'm going to need a different type of bulb...

    How many crickets?

    Definitely, I'm gonna have to hit that up ASAP cause I'm trying to make sure this little bugger get's what he needs. And I've looked at some pictures of different age groups on beardies and I've concluded that Malice is in fact 4-6 weeks as opposed to months hahaha. Regarding his age how much...

    Missing Claws

    So my beardie is a baby, apparently between 4-6 weeks old. One his back right foot he seems to be missing all of his claws. Apparently the people who bred him didn't dust their food and his siblings began nipping at each other. I was wondering if there is any chance he may grow back this...

    How many crickets?

    I'm in toronto Janie so if you have a connect around these ways it would be greatly appreciated. Also when I first purchased Malice I picked up quite a few superworms not knowing that he wouldn't be ready for them. Since then they've kinda just been chilling in this Tupperware container of...

    Not eating for a week = Relocation streess?

    I've had my beardie for about a week now and he's just now taken an interest in crickets as well as vegetables. I was just curious though, how do you go about force feeding them? lol Surely I tried this when I was convinced Malice was starving but I was wondering how you physically make them eat.

    How many crickets?

    I'm not even entirely sure about the hatch date, I didn't even buy him off a store. I just noticed an add on kijiji haha. I have a 75w zoomed basking lamp in addition to a 10.0 reptiglo UVB bulb. I've only been feeding him one cricket at a time and dusting them all just to ease his way into...

    How many crickets?

    I have a baby bearded between 4 and 6 months and today was his first time eating since I brought him home (I've had him for about a week now). So far he's dined on 3 crickets, some lettuce and a few pieces of carrot. I'm just wondering, since you feed baby beardies daily, how many crickets I...

    My baby beardie won't eat!

    Well I've made some recent changes to his tank and they are as follows: - The original bulb that I picked up was 60w and meant for rainforest lizards, this next one I picked up is 75w zoomed basking spot lamp - I had no means for emitting any UVB so I picked up a compact top fluorescent...

    My baby beardie won't eat!

    Alright I'm seriously starting to get worried, it's nearly been a week since he's touched any live food and whatever pellets Malice does eat he ends up throwing up. His terrarium is sporting these lovely piles of mushed food or something. I'm gonna get a stronger bulb today and hopefully that...

    My baby beardie won't eat!

    Now my only concern with that kind of bulb is whether or not it is compatible with this lamp depicted here: http://www.exoticreptiles.ca/viewer2.php?id=5910&cid=16. You said that yours is a "UVB Tube", if that's the case and it doesn't fit with my lamp is there an alternative such as a bulb of...

    My baby beardie won't eat!

    Oh by substrate I thought you meant his basking rock. The terrarium is lined with vita sand but I will indefinitely look into obtaining a bigger tank. The light that I have us a Sun Glo 60W Neodymium Daylight Lamp. I have browsed the forums a bit and it seems like the type of light you use is...
