    How long do they dig before they lay?

    Hello! I have an approx 2-2 1/2 year old female dragon, who I am guessing is going to lay infertile eggs any time. We have a dig box full of sand which she has been very comically making a mess of for the last week or so. My question is two parts. First, how deep does the box need to be? We...

    Syringe feeding. Tips to get mouth open?

    Yeah. Hard to go through this again in such a short time. I thought it might be a little easier this time because Myztic was still so little and not with us for very long before he passed, but our experience with our beloved Mustashio came flooding back. Even though Tashi was an adult (2.5...

    Goodbye Baby Myztic

    Unfortunately, we lost Myztic this morning. I was quite surprised he hadn't passed overnight. We took him to the vet this morning and she said time was short so we opted to bring him home where we wrapped him in a warm blanket and held him. The kids were warned last night that it might happen. I...

    Syringe feeding. Tips to get mouth open?

    Here we go again! I'm beginning to think I should only get adult beardies. I have trouble every single time I get a baby! So Myztic is about 4-5 months old. Got him/her in October from the gastly PetSmart. Should've learned my lesson 3 years ago when my first dragon, Mustashio, was very sick...

    2 beardies...switching vivs?

    Yeah. We only had the baby for like 2wk prior to taking in the rescue. So they were both getting used to their enclosures. Well...at least the baby was. The rescue was already in the enclosure, but I did take out all the wack they had in the cage and then added the necessary lighting. They were...

    Newly rescued and new to rescuing! Help!

    Thanks, DragonKeeper! First, he is a SHE! Her name is Aztec or Azzy. She finally let me hold her and I snuck a peek. She has settled down quite a bit and is quite comfortable now. Eats me out of house and home...sometimes 50 medium crickets at once! My hubby is working on a bigger viv, but I...

    2 beardies...switching vivs?

    Here's my dilemma. We got a new beardie (baby) about a month ago. We had already had a very nice 2x4x2 gorgeous homemade viv that my hubby made for our previous dragon who passed away in May 2014 (Mustashio). We have all the proper lighting, thermometers, and set up. Naturally, the new baby...

    2 beardies...switching vivs?

    Both viv's side by side. Myztic's current viv (the big one) The viv Azzy came in (although I have since changed her hide and the branches. I took out a lot of the decor it came with so she would have some room, and the lighting was mine) Aztec Myztic

    Newly rescued dragon behavior

    Thank you! Covering the backs of the cage is a great idea! I'm gonna get on that right away to make more comfortable. I brought fecals into the vet yesterday from both of the dragons and they both turned up positive for a small amount of coccidia. Vet said we could treat, or just wait and see...

    Newly rescued dragon behavior

    Hi there! First I'd like to say that and these boards and the people are so great! I have had one adult dragon before named Mustashio, who passed away this past May at only 2 years old due to a stomach tumor. He was my first dragon and I obsessantly researched and learned about his care and I...

    I'm at a loss...Adult dragon issues

    Hard day today. After the kids went to school I gave Tashi a bath (which he hated) and he stayed black bearded. He started staring off and making funny breathing noises almost like he was seizing. I knew it was time. After calling my hubby, I called the vet and brought him in. He was gaping the...
