    Beardie is gone!

    Thank you everybody for your kind words. The hurt is very deep right now as I feel like I should have done more 2 weeks ago when I thought he was in brumation. My daughter is very upset. We buried him in the backyard. Rest in peace, Blaze :(

    Beardie is gone!

    Update on Blaze. I went to the Pet Store and bought a ReptiSun 5.0 as they didn't have the 10.0. I thought this would be good to start out with. Bought a new temperature with a probe, liquid calcium supplement and a 150w halogen bulb w/uvb. I switched tanks with my other one. I put Snowy...

    Beardie is gone!

    I feed Blaze again this morning. He is now opening his mouth a little bit more when I place the syringe near his mouth. He is eating and glares at me and his beard is really black. His eyes are still sunken in. My daughter will give him a bath when she gets home from school. With regards to...

    Beardie is gone!

    Beardie is gone!

    I brought turkey baby food and feed Blaze with a syringe. At first he didn't even move or even lick. Then I gently put my finger nail in his mouth until he opened it. (I know that is not the way but I needed him to eat). After I put some of the baby food in his mouth, he started to eat a...

    Beardie is gone!

    My daughter put him in the tub to soak. He just layed there. When she took him out, he opened his eyes. I'm going to get babyfood and I have one question. How do you get him to eat? I have syringes that I will be bringing home from work. Do you force some food down his mouth or let him go...

    Beardie is gone!

    Just changed his UVB bulb and heat light this weekend. I think the UVB bulb is Reptisun 10.0 long type. I'm at work so the brain is not functioning. He can get about 10 inches away from the UVB but he is just remaining on the warm side. For the warm side, I just replaced the heat bulb with a...

    Beardie is gone!

    I don't think a fecal sample is going to help as he isn't going. The last time he tried to go was 3 days ago and it was a little whitish color droplet. What are phoenix warms? Never heard of them. I tried feeding him crickets last week and he usually goes hog wild. But he didn't want to be...

    Beardie is gone!

    I just replaced the UVB light this past week with a Reptisun 10.0 (I think) tube bulb. I'm at work and I don't remember. He gets feed kale and squash every day with a calcium powder on top sprayed with water. Substrate is paper. Measuring is with a digital therometer which has a cord that is...

    Beardie is gone!

    I think my daughter's beardie is dying. He has not eating in about two weeks, poop is not good. Only a little bit. He is about 6 years old. His eyes are sunken in as well as the top of his head. Reptisun UVB on the cool side. On the warm side, 100 watt bulb. He has been very lethargic and...
