But she said this started BEFORE moving her to the new tank.

So sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you. We have not experienced this, but I can imagine the pain if/when our Izzy passes. He is 6 years old now and we've had him since he was 6 weeks. So we are very attached. I'm sure that Simon could feel your love for him and he passed knowing...

Horrid smell, especially if that's normal, can indicate parasites or some other issue. I'd get a new fecal done. In the meantime, try some canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling) or squash baby food with a little mineral oil mixed in. You get pick up a needleless syringe or liquid medicine...

Looks like a shed to me as well. The tail always seems to take the longest to shed on ours. It begins to discolor & then it may be weeks before it actually starts shedding. Maybe yours is like this too. I've found the daily baths help and use a very soft toothbrush (our Izzy loves the...

Our Izzy is also 6 years old now and continues to eat like a pig! Loves his protein (superworms are his fav), but enjoys salads everyday too. Everyone keeps telling me that at this age he really only needs the live feeders (protein) 2-4 times week and that he'll slow down on his own. But it...

Maybe "ears" was the wrong term to use. It was from too much water getting into these openings and causing some neurological issue. The sad story was on here about 4+ years ago. I've looked for it and cannot find it. We all read & watched the posts, waited and prayed for several days while...

I'm always afraid of them getting water in their ears. I've read some upsetting stories on here about water getting in the ear holes and causing some terrible issues (balance problems, dizzyness, stumbling, etc) one resulted in the beardie passing away. So I'm always careful to make sure the...

Many of us use the non-adhesive shelf liner. Comes in a variety of patterns, very easy to clean and inexpensive. You can get a roll for like $5 or less at Walmart, Target or any store that sells home goods. Here's one of the brands...

That is true. They will be much easier to clean without the grout. I was just worried about his feet/nails getting caught in between. Glad they will be closer together. You will love the tile!

Will you be grouting the spaces in between? If not, I wonder if his little feet and nails would get caught in there?

Oh wow! So sad. Amazing he is still alive. He must a have a very strong will to live. Thanks for trying to save him. Get him warm, hydrated and to a vet ASAP. See if you can bathe him in baby warm water just up to his armpits (keep his head lifted above the water if he is too weak to hold...

Mine does. He is almost 4 years old and still sheds every couple months (6-8 weeks).

I know what you mean. I have heard that 65 degrees is the minimum temp at night. But, you're right, whenever it gets that low it just feels like it's so cold in there! I use a CHE even now, before it's really cold out (I'm in So Cal) and can adjust the height of it. I have ours hanging above...

Yes, an ordinary household lightbulb (not cfl) will work just fine. Experiment with different wattages to achieve the desired temp. I actually found Phillips Duramax indoor flood bulbs at the 99cent store that work great! I bought a bunch of the 75w ones, which is just right for my needs...

Giving this a bump so maybe someone with more experience will chime in.
