    Stress and not eating

    Yes. Give your new guy up to a couple weeks to settle in before becoming concerned.

    I think it's time to put my girl down

    *hugs* It sounds like she's had a long full life. That's a hard decision I've had to make a few times with my cats. I don't know what the best way to put her down is. I have euthanized fish by cooling them down. I put them in water in the fridge and then move that to the freezer. They...

    My beardie hates me

    How often do you handle her? My beardie started off kind of terrified of us (but she's not aggressive so she just froze in our hands for along time). But I started making sure to pick her up everytime I walked by. I would hold her just for a few seconds and then put her down. Also, what...

    Hissers, hissers, hisssserss!

    Nice. They have some at the local museum in the kid bug area. I love watching them. They get BIG!

    The life and times of Zaxxi!

    Zaxxi's new home is finally starting to come together. We installed the new UV light, made some branches for her to climb, and one for her to hide in. I'm still planning on a bio active soil dig box an some plants. But those need to wait until I have time. This is what we have in there so...

    Got my daughter a bd and having trouble

    You will hear alot of mixed information about meal worms. Some people have fed them for years with zero issues and other people claim they are effectively a death sentence. I know breeders who have fed them and never had a problem. Give him some more time to adjust before becoming...

    shredded newspaper or paper towels

    I"ve been thinking about that too. After her lights go out (on a timer), Zaxxi goes to the same corner every night and digs under the paper towel. I've been thinking about shredding some newspaper (it's safe for my vermacompost worms, so I'm guessing it will be safe for dragons) and then...

    Both of my Dragon's nostrils are clogged!

    Have you given her a bath? When my dragon is shedding, I find that she likes to dunk her head under water and then scratch at her ears. It can't hurt.

    Help please

    Separate the dragons. Once hormones start to hit, they cannot be housed together. There are MANY online feeder retailers. Google for the feeder you want and you will find a place. I would recommend one, but I'm in Canada so you have better options. The female needs to be seen by a vet...

    Baby growth rates - help me collect data

    I think that her being ~1 week when you got her fits better than being 3 weeks. And since it's totally plausible, then I would say we should go with that. I have to say thanks! Thanks for playing along with me. My 9yo daughter and I are having a blast looking at the data and seeing how...

    Baby growth rates - help me collect data

    If I adjust back 2 weeks, his length becomes just at the bottom of the other babies, but his weight is right on. I'm guessing that you got one of the hatchlings. Here are the adjusted charts.

    Which UV bulb should I get?

    We settled on the reptisun 10. We got a fixture and installed it. So, here's my new question. It's at the top of the viv because that made sense. We are building a climbing thing for her out of some branches. As long as she has the ability to get close to it, then that's ok right? Like, if...

    Baby growth rates - help me collect data

    I'm wondering if we estimated Wayne's age incorrectly.

    Baby growth rates - help me collect data

    All new dragons are welcome. The more the merrier!!!! (Actually, the more the better the data I can get from it. I would LOVE to eventually have enough to split by gender) I am marking my data entry spot. I have added out new dragons. I will try to post updated charts tonight.
