    Unknown Intestinal Parasite-- help ID'ing appreciated!

    I was hoping that was the case but unfortunately the organism has a very distinct membrane. If it were plant material I would expect to see a cell wall and a cellular membrane. I think since I work at a vet clinic, Murphy's Law is at play here :silent: We were scouring textbooks to find a...

    Unknown Intestinal Parasite-- help ID'ing appreciated!

    Hello, Just posting on the off chance that someone here may have seen something similar to this before. I am a vet tech at an exotic practice and noticed my beardie had a bit of watery stool so I decided to bring the sample to work with me for a fecal exam. Nothing of interest was noted on the...

    Too fat?

    I always get remarks on how big Kaesar is and I mean, beardies are good sized lizards but it makes me feel like he's too fat for his age and size. He is 18 inches long and roughly 522 grams. He's almost two years old and he eats mostly greens like mustard, turnip, or collards. I also feed him...

    Monthly cost to feed? $$$

    I've noticed that as my beardie has gotten older I spend way less on food than I did while he was still growing. He eats mostly veggies, so I might buy a pond of collards or mustard greens and yellow squash while it's in season. We don't spray our yard either so occasionally i pick dandelion...

    Certain feeders- still bad even with dusting/gutloading?

    Like most of you I use the Beautiful Dragons nutrition content to decide what to feed my beardie. I know that the calcium to phosphorus ratio is very important and mealworms for example come in at 1:25 when not gut-loaded or dusted. If I combine some of these with turnip greens (about 5:1) the...

    Is my dragon too fat?

    He is about 7 months old and 16 inches long. I feed him twice a day: in the morning he gets either collard greens, mustard greens, or turnip greens mixed in with 60-70 phoenix worms and at night depending on what I have in stock he gets either crickets or superworms, about as many as he'll eat...

    Beardie doesn't use his hide... normal?

    I have Kaesar, my 6 month old, enclosed in a 40 gallon tank with the hot side 80-90, cool side 75-80, and different basking areas with temps between 95-115. I use the reptisun 10.0 tube. When I first got him months ago I left the hide out of the tank so he could get used to his surroundings, and...

    How many Reptiworms can he eat???

    My 5 month old can eat anywhere from 50-100 a feeding. I've even fed him up to like 120 a feeding once or twice.
