    Why isn't my beardy eating?!

    For a while he has seemed completely uninterested in food and he is very inactive. Whenever I put food near him he shakes his head and it looks like he's trembling.. it really worries me... I basically had to force feed him yesterday- I opened his mouth and popped a dubia roach in and then he...

    Safe to use sand now?

    I was wondering if you guys think it's safe to use sand for my beardy now. I've had him on paper towels since I got him. I do no feed him inside the viv; I feed him in a separate container. He is almost 4 months old and is about 10 inches long. Let me know what you think. Also, I have him in a...

    Is this tail rot? (pictures)

    Hello. He shed his tail earlier this week. The tail there is already necrotic. I went to the vet today and he said he was going to wait until 7-10 days had gone by to see if it spreads. He is going to get the dead tissue cut off on his next visit. If I'm not mistaken, there is no way to save...

    very calm behavoir....is it normal???

    Generally beardies are very docile lizards. He was probably a nervous wreck when you first got him because he wasn't used to his new surroundings. He is completely normal.

    Is this tail rot? (pictures)

    Zakhari's last shed was abnormal and his tail didn't shed. I think the shedding skin may have suffocated his tail at the end. The end is hard and he doesn't respond when you touch it like he does with the rest of his tail.

    Abnormal shed

    Thank you! I'm mainly just worried about the darkening tip and whether or not it's tail rot.

    Abnormal shed

    It is quite alright. If you want to get the most out of their colors, make sure they are getting a really good amount of UVB light.

    Abnormal shed

    I have a 2 month old beardie and with his first shed he she everything but his tail. I've been soaking him and just recently, 2 weeks after his shed his tail is finally shedding. The new skin looks very dull, almost white still, and the very tip is a dark gray, almost black color. Is that just...

    changing color

    I have a red heat bulb that I keep on low. And correction: they are about 80-90 on the warm side and 60-70 on the cool. I have a cave in his viv that he usually sleeps in.

    Replacing occasional meals with canned feeders?

    I get mine from timberline fisheries. Do you know of any better places? A lot of them will come dead and then they'll die here. I do buy in bulk, though. It usually costs me around 28 dollars for 1000. Thank you all so much!

    Replacing occasional meals with canned feeders?

    I realize that live food is much more expensive than canned food. I feel my 2 month old live insects 3x a day and I was wondering if you all think it would be okay that I replace one of the meals with canned insects if I dust them with nutrients. If so what do you recommend. Nutrient/canned...

    What are ways to reduce the cost of owning a BD?

    I have had my BD for a little less than a month now and I have probably put over 100 dollar in food alone. I was wondering the ways you all use to reduce the costs in general with reducing the BD's health.

    Shedding underneath new skin?

    Last time my beardie shed his tail didn't shed completely. There is a spot on his tail where his new skin overlaps the old skin which is about to shed again because it's milky white. Could this become a problem?
