Great pictures. Thanks for sharing!

Bumping this because I am very concerned that I'm not doing enough to help him. :(

Gizzy is my first beardie and has recently started shedding. Some background info: He's a rescue from Craigslist I got in June. He is 2 years old and 14 inches when last measured. Thankfully he has kept a good appetite still, although he is a bit cranky which is totally understandable. It...

The vet I took my beardie to said the same exact thing. I have given him 1 frozen/thawed pinky so far, but with all the dangers I'm hearing I won't be doing that again.

He sounds lethargic and possibly ill to be honest. Adding the critical care and calcium is definitely better than giving just plain baby food. If you could answer the following questions, maybe we could help figure out his problem better. What size enclosure do you have your dragon in? What...

Baby food is not nutritionally complete for beardies. A beardie will not be healthy on a diet of exclusively baby food.

Does freezing crickets make them less nutritious? I did some reading on the subject and some people seem to think so. Many people feed frozen/thawed rodents instead of live without problems though. There are also premade raw dog and cat foods that are frozen/thawed and highly nutritious. I...

You posted that Raptor died more than once. I too saw you post that you threw him against a wall, but it was removed by a Mod because of the graphic content. What kind of game are you playing here? :?

Very nice!

I wouldn't say his poops smell pleasent or anything :wink: I've read some odor is normal.

Wow! :shock: Well done, it looks amazing! :notworthy:

Update: Gizzy is all better! His poop has hardly any smell. Big contrast to how it used to clear a room. They are also less watery and better formed. His first stool stample had tons of flagellete. His second stool sample taken after treatment had hardly any, but the vet said that is normal so...

Health food stores always have dandelions available in our area.

No problem. :) I use it as a staple among other greens so I was curious myself. My boy loves mustard greens.

They are very healthy and safe to use as a staple. Here is the best info I could find regarding their high level of goitrogens. I believe it it relevant even though it is aimed at humans instead of beardies. If there truly was a high danger to the thyroid then it wouldn't be so widely...
