I think I've got the temps and everything figured out pretty well...between 75 and 80 on the cool side and between 100-110 on the hot side. I measure these with digital thermometers with probes. I have a Reptisun 10.0 for him as well that he is usually within 6 inches of. He hasn't been eating...

Hello everyone! My bearded dragon Ripple hatched in early May and I received him on June 16th when he was 6 inches long. He grew to 10 inches between then and August but he hasn't grown at all or shed since then :( From what I've read, he should be up to about 15 inches by now and I'm starting...

Hi Em! Thanks for your reply. To answer your question, yes my Reptisun is a tube rather than a coil and my little guy (whose name is Ripple, after my boyfriend's favorite Grateful Dead song :roll: lol) generally hangs out about six inches away from it. I bathe him a lot, probably about 5 times...

Hello my fellow bearded dragon lovers! I recently got a new dragon baby and am starting to get concerned because I don't think he eats enough. He was shipped to me on June 16th so its been about ten days, could it still be from relocation stress? He will only eat about 6-8 crickets a day, and...

Mine just started doing this too, and he will keep it up for hours! I was wondering what was up with that as well

I'm planning on monitoring his weight, and if he starts to lose a significant amount I will most definitely bring him in. I feel a little better today because I managed to get him to eat around 15-20 crickets and a little bit of kale. Not his normal amount by a long shot but at least its...

He will come out sometimes, on Monday he basked all day and I managed to get him to eat about 15 crickets. Then yesterday he wouldn't eat at all and he ended up falling asleep on the cool side of his tank at about 1 p.m. and he's still there now 24 hours later, sleeping off and on. I'm thinking...

Esbi is so cute! How old is she? The way you described her pretty much sounds like Rex, the tiredness and not wanting food...I'll probably take him in. Hope Esbi starts feeling better!

Hi Tracie, thanks for your response! I haven't ever had a fecal done on Rex, mainly because he's always been healthy with a great appetite and regular poops, and also because I don't have a lot of extra money. Of course if he ever needed a vet's attention I would definitely find a way to bring...

Hello everyone! My sweet little Rex is starting to get me worried...I've had him since April and luckily he has always been very healthy, but unfortunately about 10 days ago he abruptly stopped eating. He'll eat a cricket or silkworm here and there, but for the most part he's not interested...

My bearded dragon did this too when I first got him, he worried me to death because he would only eat maybe 3-5 crickets a day and from reading on here I knew he was supposed to have a lot more than that. He kept that up for a month or so and then out of nowhere, he started eating 50-100 a day...
