Anyone else ever try to introduce their beardie to the bigger animals in the house, only for them to pretty much treat the beardie like theyre the one in charge lol? I have two dogs and whenever Reptar goes to see them they immidiately lay down and seem intimidated by her, even though theyre 4x...

Ill give it a try! Oh I forgot to tell ypu her name lol, shes Reptar!

If youre looking for charts, you cant do much worse than the classic Punnett Square, just increase the size to account for whatever traits. Other than that, Im not very certain about reptile genetics, Id find a herpetologist forum, or ask around here

Thats going to be difficult to get Dubias, Ive only ever seen the cups of nymphs at Petco in my old town, and you sure she has a big enough head to eat a whole Dubia? I was always very hesitant about that... As for the excercise, i can let her run around on the floor with her toys. Ill also try...

Been feeding her hornworms and arugula mostly, should I cut out the hornworms? And if so, for how long? Though to be fair, she isnt *that* much of a picky eater, she just wont eat greens or anything non moving unless i wave it in front of her first

Absolutely!

She had that done once, never, ever, EVER doing it again to her. But ill try to get her poop in to the vet, also I'm guessing i shouldn't wait for it to dry?

honestly I'm just thankful for each day with her, she nearly died from her parasites as a juvenile, though I still can't tell if it was because of a bad reaction to the meds, or it was really just *that* bad? I'll try to get a fecal sample but that's also another issue, she doesn't poop much. I...

So, having just got off reddit where I was told she wasn't being taken care of properly bc I couldn't afford or find the space for a 120 gallon tank, I get told there that she's overweight and looks to be in bd health. Is she though? Keep in mind she's nearly 10 years old, and the vet hasn't...

I'm honestly a little scared about how she might be affected, I mean shes eaten spiders once when I wasnt fast enough to catch her, but this time, she ate a beetle(stink bug maybe?), and a small-ish spider. Is my little Reptar going to be okay?

She's doing good today. She shedded, and pooped yesterday. I might have to change the sand though, since it is smelling.

She ate about 48 crickets four days ago, and hasn't paid attention to her prey since she pooped, which was 2 days ago.

Alright, so she will shed on her own without my help? Also, what is the moist skin? It's no longer moist, but its darker than the rest of her skin.

Oops. I uh...tried to pick at the skin, needless to say, she was less than pleased with me. Under the shedded skin, however, the new scales felt moist and soft, it could be related to the baths I give her...

The vet tried a cocktail of Panacur C, at 0.03 mL, and Albon at 0.05 mL. I didnt start her on the Acidophiliz+, until after we got her off the meds, which was 3 days after the vet first prescribed it. Other than the weird poop, she seems to be doing okay, and is energetic.
