My husband found our sweet beardie deceased the morning. He lived such a short and challenging life. I got him in February of 2014 with an approximate birthday of November 2015. Early on we battled parasites which stunted his growth. Every time the weather got colder he would struggle...

Back story: Albus is 2.5 years old, is 18' long and weighs 301g currently. Last year Albus stopped eating for a bit, lost a bit of weight. This was during the winter months so it was suspected brumation. Around the spring months I gave him some carnivore care and then he started eating again and...

He was doing it while under the basking bulb. I will update if he is doing it tomorrow

My beardie has been tilting his head back and opening his mouth partially this evening. I have never seen this behaviour before. is it normal?

Hello, Is it possible for a beardie to go into a partial brumation? My beardie is 2 years old - last year he did the same thing. He will eat minimal, some veggies sometimes, a worm or 2 once in awhile. He continues to bask but is sluggish - some days will be very active. Took him to the vet a...

It's mounted on the back wall approximately 13''

Is the difference between T5 and T8 the thickness of it? The bulb I am using is thin. The dimensions are 35''L x 16''H x 18''W

The tank is 80 gallon. I use a thermometer with a probe - one probe is on his basking log directly under the light and another is on the cool side of the tank

Sooo... Last year around this time my beardie like most slowed down quiet a bit - however continue to bask and never hid. He did of course stop eating (crickets) but lost weight during this time (weighed 309g).. So I had to feed him carnivore care/baby food and he eventually started eating on...

So during the fall/winter my beardie slowed down and was not eating very much... I had to syringe feed him for a bit. Prior to this he would eat veggies and crIckes. After this he refused to eat crIckets but would eat his veggies. So I offered him super worms - which he loves. So now he only...

Thanks for all the info. I gave him carnivore care a few months ago due to parasites resulting in major weight loss... And I only gave it to him for about a week.
