Hi, just jumping in with a few more ideas to hopefully help until a more long-term food source is available. There are a number of fruits that bearded dragons love to eat, so even young dragons will usually at least try them, since they're tastier than veggies. It shouldn't be a long term staple...

Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry to hear she's had such a drastic decline. From your description, it sounds like something is going on internally, as was mentioned (i.e. worms, parasites). If she is hanging in and there is hope for recovery, I think you would need a vet's diagnosis. Otherwise, keep...

I might have missed it, but did you mention what the temps are like at night? Especially if she's not feeling well, higher temps at night like around 80F could help her recover a bit faster. I've heard of impaction causing a semi-paralysis, but that is usually just the hind limbs, not the...

So sorry to hear about the loss of your little one. If you decide to get another beardie, be sure to check in on the website. Members are quick to reply, very helpful, and want to see everyone's pet dragons as happy and healthy as possible.

So sorry to hear about your sick little dragon. I just wanted to ask if you've tried Oxbow critical care for feeding. I had success feeding that to my dragon when she was sick. You can get the vegetarian diet, I got vegetarian and carnivore and mixed the two. There are insectivore powdered diets...

I didn't see any mention of if he is pooing normally, but that can be another good indicator of what's going on with them. It's also good to bring a fecal sample with if you're visiting the vet. The only other things I can think of that might indicate an illness are checking mouth, nose, ears...

No worries, you're doing fine with using the computer. You mentioned that your bearded dragon has his mouth open often. Do you have a thermometer to check the temperatures in the enclosure? Beardies will gape to help regulate their temperature if they feel too hot. I think you mentioned he is...

We are in very similar situations. I lost my precious baby, Taro, one week ago. She tested positive for ADV around 1yr old, and got gradually and progressively worse over the last year. I decided right away I want to continue owning beardies, but I'm having the same issue. All the breeders and...

You definitely need some lamps, heat and UVB, but that information should be readily available, and others on the site would know the specifics better than myself. You can and should give supplements more often than once week. Again, I'm not an expert but that info should be easy to find as...
