Pete seems to be back to his old self this morning he is no longer hiding in his log house. He is just basking under his lamp so I am very happy I got rid of the crickets. Thanks for everyones insight

Hello, crickets have all been vacuumed out and put outside. I will no longer be using crickets. EVER also yes that was the spot I was referring to is there anything wrong there?

I just want to make sure this isn't a fungal thing. I stopped using roaches this month because they ran out of dubies. But I am definitely going back to roaches because Pete doesn't seem to like crickets as much and they crawl on him when he sleeps and I just feel bad about it. Here is the...

I have been trying to find mustard greens but I only put those 3 things in his bowl. He seems to eat the bowl after every 3rd or 4th daily refill otherwise it just sits until I replace it. I dont really want to buy pumpkin but besides collards squash and applesauce and (mustard greens which I...

Hi, Pete is doing well since coming out of brumation. He eats lots of dubia roaches and poos often sometimes 3 times a day. His poo seems to fall apart easy though I am not sure why. Although he eats mostly roaches and is growing/shedding rapidly I put.... Collards, applesauce, squash and...

He is about 1 1/2 - 2 years old now. He is also about 8 to 10 ounces? really rough guess. He is a great color though. I just feed him those 4 things. Processed beardie food, collards, plain applesauce because he eats that and roaches. He mainly eats the roaches but if not he will eat mostly...

I am feeding my beardie roaches and I mean like 10 a day. I recently put him near an eastern facing window where he gets direct sunlight. and he started being very active and very hungry. So I have been dropping in roaches and I am not sure when to stop doing this because he keeps eating...

Hello, Here is my setup. 40 gallon tank proper setup proper temps daily fresh water, collards, applesauce, processed bites, occasional butterworms. He is no longer having a hydration or temp problem but he is sometimes refusing to drink. his stomach feels very empty he hasn't eaten in over a...

UPDATE: finally he has pooed. Although it was a bit large it was very normal looking. hopefully he will be more regular with regular hydration and his improved temps. Thanks again.

Hello,Since I last posted I have started to feed Pete with applesauce and also water via syringe. He seems to be ok with once daily. I can offer him about .5 - 1ml of applesauce or more of water before he clams up and stops receiving. He looks healthy and is basking regularly. I am worried...

You have no idea how much I appreciate your help but this websites help in particular. I got a bearded dragon originally because I thought it would be cool and it is. But these little guys require a lot of care and I am just so glad this site is here as a resource lol. Thank you again that makes...

Hello, my beardie Pete was showing signs of dehydration and overheating which have since been corrected. He is now active daily (no longer hiding under leaves) and receives water by syringe daily and is back to his old self. However the poo issue remains. Diet: Spaghetti Squash Collard Greens...

Ok so I tried giving him water with a syringe anyway and he started drinking right away. I think you were right about dehydration. I am going to menards first thing in the morning and ill build a lamp stand to lower his temps. THANKS SOOOO MUCH :)

Wow this sounds pretty serious. I will get a weaker bulb or I will raise the lamp asap. I was under the impression with a water bowl and regular batheing he would be fine? Since that isn't the case I will offer with a spray bottle as he will certainly not like a syringe and I have seen him drink...

Hi, I usually only post when my beardie is not being regular and I need to consult you guys "the oracles of dragons" anyway.... Diet: Spaghetti squash (daily) Collard Greens (daily) Processed bits (bearded dragon bites) (daily) Butterworms several times a week Fresh water (daily) I use a...
