If you want to try to get him to poop more towards the morning, maybe give him a luke warm bath to start the day with a belly rub?? Roku will only poop in the afternoons now in his bath and only if I rub his belly (spoiled brat <3). Just gently run your fingers (don't need to push in any way)...

bdalton, you are my hero for that. Worse case scenario, mall cops get called to the scene but if I had a dime for every time I took a rude employee's empty threat seriously or a mall cop seriously, well I'd be broke. I would try to take pictures or videos of him moving, print out some articles...

You buy crickets locally? Have you tried any other kind of feeders, like roaches or worms? Zeus is adorable, how long is he now?

Heads up: sometimes when bathing, your beardie might find it more relaxing to poop in the water than in the viv. Might, but not all beardies take to pooping in the bath.

Lol, he tried that method only to receive the stink eye from Roku. Oh well, he's back to his regular feeding schedule from his favorite slave.

That looks like shed alright! What I find to help my dragon during shedding (since the tail can be hard for them to shed sometimes) was to gently brush over his tail during bath time with an old soft tooth brush.

1. Appreciating the care difference between "exotic" and "domestic" pets (never had to feed a pet worms/crickets/roaches before)--- I didn't know bearded dragons were exotic, I bet Roku is very happy with that compliment lol 2. Exotic pets are a great conversation starter (going to the store...

Reason why we get mad: http://www.beardeddragon.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=154908--very informative thread As far as the OP's question goes: please keep them separated. Males, typically, are the more dominate ones and if paired with a female will over breed with the female and hurt her...

Just keep in mind that beardies (like people) grow at different rates. Just make sure you are providing adequate UVA and UVB, temps and vitamins (calcium!!) to ensure proper growth. 11' at 1 year?? Holy cow, that's really small :? I know when I got Roku, he was 8in, after two months he was...

^ Agreed, giving a bath really helps when your beardie is in shed. I wish I could give you that scientific answer you are looking for, but like humans who grow at different rates, beardies shed at different rates. I know when they're younger, they tend to shed a lot as they are growing a lot...

I've realized that I've been the one to hand feed, bathe, and prepare Roku's food. This past week I've been sick so I quarantined myself from him since I didn't want to risk anything and pretty much dumped all my duties to my boyfriend. This past week Roku has outright refused to eat from him or...

Well, we got Roku shortly around the time I made my boyfriend watch Avatar: The Last Airbender (we saw the live action movie and I was disappointed, so I made him watch the tv series to see how greatly they messed up the movie). Before getting him I told my boyfriend that he needed a fire nation...

Go go gadget copter?

I'm trying to help a guy out with getting all the information he needs to help convince his parents to allow him to have a bearded dragon. He's already got all the information on cage set up and lighting, but the thing we're stuck on now is online (or local if anyone knows) feeder breeders...

Jess is the main reason I still have hope for the youth these days.... OP, you're 13 and you act younger than that. Stop being selfish, there I said it. You're being completely selfish with what you WANT and not even considering what a bearded dragon NEEDS, which in this case are two polar...
