So we're good on his UVB bulb, no coil. Now i'm about 98% sure its not a temperature issue. This morning I had is heat lamp off mostly to which he didn't do any surfing or anything, just hanging out. I decided to take him out and hold him which I did for about 2 hours and he sat still just...

Hello all, so for some background on my beardie he's about 7/8 years old (not 100% since i'm not his original owner, i'd say he was already an adult when I got him and well used to humans) and he's been healthy through and through. To my understanding he still is since he displays no real red...

the tank is just about a foot high, but i move him onto a taller rock that is under his UVB bulb so hes about 8 inches away from his UVB bulb. He takes crickets at times but not all the time, sadly i live in Connecticut and its winter so taking him outside isn't an option right now. I still try...

Sorry for reposting everyone! I didn't see there was 2 pages of thread since i'm on my mobile device. His tank is an exo terra 20 G, he has a 100 W basking bulb (currently) story behind that is he had a 150 W bulb but someone said that was too powerful but if you look at the exo terra 20 G its...

Here is zeke currently, now has movement in his upper body but nothing in is legs. Still crooked spine and no bowel movements. I still bath him regularly, massage the stomach lightly in the bath, pedialyt (which is in his water when he bathes) and bannana.

This is zeke currently, he's gotten better about movement in his upper body but still has a crooked spine and now leg movement, still daily baths, pedialyt, bannana, etc.
