His lights are fine, he was just at the vet for a checkup. He is just an ******* when he doesn’t get his way .

I was thinking about that.

I don’t remember I bought it at a local reptile store like 3 months ago.

Here are the pics of his lights.

Ok guys need a suggestion to tantrum proof his heat lights. When he has a tantrum he jumps straight up and hits the light fixture w his head. I’ll post pics. He has bent it. I’m scared he is going to jump up and accidentally hit the heat lamp bulb. I need someway to fix it so he can’t hit the...

Actually in the 20 yrs I trained dogs they exhibit that exact behavior. Rescues are typically more clingy after they bond to you, and they bond tighter. I have noticed Matcha is very territorial over me. If we are out and ppl he doesn’t know approach, he will get black beard and head Bob at...

Thank you so much for replying. I’m fairly new to beardies. I am a retired dog trainer, so I tend to relate everything to that. Lol I never would have dreamed a reptile could be so similar. He has trained like a dog. Lol So I didn’t want to let something continue if it could be a problem. Don’t...

Yeah it is an entire wall hitch I modified. He is in it during the day but at night bc he comes when I call him, and always follows me around he just gets free roam of the house. So he does not like being in the hutch. Lol

Yeah he has a blanket that I made out of a fuzzie hoodie of mine. It is the only thing g he doesn’t toss around when I am gone. Lol I’m wondering g if it is t just his way of trying to get out of his hutch.

So I got Matcha as a rescue. He just turned 2. He bonded very tightly very quickly. He comes when I call him, he gives kisses if I ask. If anyone else holds him he has a fit until he gets back to me. Just moved in with my fiancé and found out why Matcha’s cage is always a mess. When I am not...

Well as a human nurse the easy answer is the best place to start. Impaction is the big thing to worry about. Maybe while looking at your lighting, go ahead and treat the constipation/impaction . Try leaving her lights on, force feed her some canned pumpkin, baby food peaches or prunes work well...

The back of my living room couch! It sits up against the window and Matcha has a fit until I raise the blinds so he can watch all the neighbors. Kinda like a 90 yr old paranoid meth head.

It is goi g great, thanks for asking. I might be running into a slight problem. I got Nessie for my daughter. I have 50/50 custody of her. Even though she is here half the time, I am the constant for Nessie. He is just as great w her, except if he is on me and she tries to take him, he squirms...

I should preface this with I don’t use substrate, I put grouted tile in our terrarium. However When I was researching substrates, I keep seeing that you shouldn’t use sand bc it is bad for them. Ummmm they normally live in the dessert. Been awhile since I have been to the dessert but pretty sure...

Yes we were very lucky when we got this little guy. He has been very social since we brought him home. His tank also sits in the living room so I am talking to him almost constant throughout the day, bc it is so cute to watch him tilt his head every time he hears my voice.
