I’ve had Red for a little over four months now and she’s about three or four years old. When we were hanging out in the living room today, she had pieces of shed around her eye that appeared to be bothering her. I used the softest touch to help her and she rubbed her lil face on my finger, with...

I bought the 48 inch because it was recommended. It’s so frustrating trying to get the correct info! I have a 24 inch I can put on the screen. Also a 12 inch that was on the tank she came in, new bulb of course with the highest UV rating. I have an MVB but someone here said it wasn’t a good...

Hello again. So, Red was doing well until recently. She had been hiding most of the day, day after day and would just sit with her nose in the corner. Wouldn’t eat a thing! Took her to the vet again and though not an exotics vet, she gave her a five day round dose of antibiotics but said she...

I will post a pic of the screen but will cut it if need be. My son and I are doing a full cleaning later today.He bathes while I clean. Have tried to drip water down to her nose..she hates it! I do offer her drops from my finger or a dropper and leave all the water on her greens. I also mist her...

I would say fine screen. I will take a picture. That bulb was $50! I’m happy to get a new one though. Can I do anything for her today? Like I said, she hasn’t come out of her hide. Should I just take her out and bathe her? An unrelated question but she’s NEVER done the angry black beard thing...

I can’t put the T8 inside. It’s a sealed system on top. I am happy to buy a different bulb. I will order the thermometer you recommended today. I also noticed that her beard is quite swollen/larger than normal. I want to help her, what can I do today? I’ll reduce the basking temp right away.

Also, no kale. Collard greens, beet and carrot greens, cilantro (she likes that a lot) Brussels sprouts, a bit of sweet potato, acorn squash, blueberries, apple but very little fruit.

I bought a Mercury vapor bulb and have the receipt but have to look on the site to see the wattage. I also bought the hood that the MVB is in and it did have a coil light so I got a hood light as well. An 8 I believe. She never ate salads or and greens before we got her but that is the majority...

Hello and thanks for having me. I recently (3/1/2021) adopted an adult bearded dragon. My best friend died unexpectedly and this dragon was going to be left in his apartment to die. I have zero experience. I’ve researched extensively and have happily spent a small fortune. We have her in a 2 by...
