Hey everyone... My power went out at about 10am. The estimated time for restore is 230pm. But as many of yoy know... this could be less, it could be more. However my big concern is my beardie. I had the heat set at 72 before the power went out, so the house is still warm. But I dont know how...

He guys... so my sister and her husband are giving us their beardie in December. We are pretty excited. His name is Thor. He is about 5 or 6 years old. They sent me some photos and Thor doesnt look very... Healthy. He moves really well... but he looks rather thin. They are feeding him lettuce...

Hey guys... So Marvin just took his bath. He was happy go lucky in the tub, but drank alot. He is now out of the tub but he is breathing weird. When he exhales, he is exhaling hard causing his side to retract in quite a bit and he is puffing up his beard more then usual. (It no longer seems like...

Dude... a dubia was crawling on his beard and the freak out reaction was priceless. He was shaking his head, and backing up and like "No! I DONT LIKE THIS! Get it off me!!!"

It was powdered food. I hope it isnt in the food because we are starting a dubia colony, and we have been giving it to the adults too... now that you have said that, i have to check the food too because now Im panicking a little bit.

So... I have been feeding my beardie dubias. Today, I was getting ready to feed him the last of 1000 dubia roaches when I found mites. Yup... mites. What affect could this have on my little Marvin?

The light is about 11-12 inches away from the basking light. Seems a little much to me, thats why Im trying to figure out if I should get him a higher sitting basking rock/log or if I should get a hotter light. As it stands right now, the light is sitting on the lid to the cage and that is...

My problem isnt so much across the whole tank. Its only on one side of the tank. The hot side of the tank isnt grtting warm enough. I dont eant to make the whole tank a hotspot because then he will have no where to go to cool down. Im trying to decide if I should get a new light are a higher...

oh the smiles that this boy has just brings happiness to my heart!!!

Okay... So... We got a new tank for Marvin. Its a 40 gal. Breeder and doesnt have much inside. He has a 100w solar bright mvb basking light that sits over the hot side of the cage and a Zilla desert 50 florescent UVB bulb acoss the whole setup. We have paper towels laid for now until we get the...
