    Baby Beardie wont grow!!

    We got her July 23 so she is at least 5 months just measured and she is 6.5in. That's interesting about blood bank and wish we knew that earlier. We haven't noticed any weird twitches.

    Baby Beardie wont grow!!

    Our UVB is a tube. We take the temps with a digital temp gun. We try to feed her more than 5 crickets but she won't take more. We offer twice a day. We dust her crickets and her green with calcium. We have a bright basking bulb.

    New baby! Need advice

    Thank you! I read the articles. They are great. Still wondering what a 6 month old is considered. A juvenile? When are they adults? From what I read I should be feeding crickets 2 times a day and veggies once. Is this right?

    I need advice on heating at night. I have a 7yr old rescued beadie in a 40 gallon tank. My temps are fine during the day but at night the tank is getting too low, about 68 degrees. Is it ok to use a red light at night for him? I can't use a undertank heater because he is on sand so I don't think...

    toenails?

    Thats what I thought. I tried to post pictures but haven't figured out how yet. He doesn't walk much which is why I am concerned it hurts him. He will only walk on our thick carpet. Outside he just sits and doesn't move.

    resting stomach in water bowl?

    Our new 6yr old BD who wasn't eating due to relocation we think finally took about 8-10 superworms with us placing the worms in front of him. Now he crawled over his water dish and is resting his stomach in the water. Is this something we should be concerned with. He had his bath last night- so...
