    Sunken fat pads.

    So my little girl has been on baby food mixture for the past month or so and is bathed about once every 3 days. After seeing a few posts regarding the fat pads on the head i inspected hers. They seem to be sunken, unlike my male who eats crickets and is bathed the same amount. This doesnt really...

    im i feeding to much to litle or just riet

    Im at a loss for words... If you cant afford a UVB light or the food he needs i would suggest you find someone who can. Your dragon WILL DIE or be very unhealthy unless you provide a uvb light (note the lights need to be replaced every 6 months). Your dragon will also not grow with such low...

    MVB QUESTIONS

    If you are concerned about having enough light i would also suggest getting a 5000k+ household bulb aswell for 2 reasons. A) i find in my enclosure, even with a 4ft double florescent fixture housing 2x5000k t12 bulbs AND a Mega-Ray 100watt SB the cool side tends to be a little dark. So another...

    Lighting - T-Rex Active UV Heat - 100 Watt Flood - Initial B

    My best guess is that the ventilation is lacking in the enclosure. Did you build it yourself? do you have vents on the sides and the back? I know when my temps get a little warm all i have to do is slide the doors open a half inch on either side and my temps adjust quite a bit. I use a melamine...

    Need enclosure advice

    Yea building really is the way to go. I just completed a 2x2x4 enclosure about a month ago. I have no regrets what-so-ever. I used melamine for all my walls other than the front of course, which is sliding glass doors. I have heard of people using wood before but it is important to seal it and...

    Beginner help

    Sj45 for a dragon that young he should be eating about 5x that many... The general rule for feeding is as many as they can eat and a 15 minute period 3 times a day (be prepared, they eat ALOT when they are young and it can get expensive). The first meal of every day should be dusted with...

    wat u think

    Just keep in mind that at these dimensions it will not fit through doors. Best bet is to keep atleast one dimension at ~24" and since beardies dont need alot of height i would say that would be the best choice. Otherwise you will have to build it in the room that it is to be put in.

    Rockwall completed

    Hmmm i hear of everyone using this Mod Podge but i have yet to track some down in Canada. I assume you live in the states, wondering what our equivalant would be, or what my other options are. What kinda store do you buy this stuff at? I have checked Home Depot here and i cant find anything...

    Not eating, Not doing anything. Halp ;-;

    Supers as a staple is a good thought as long as the dragon is over 16 inches. In this case the dragon is 6 months old, 16 inches would be rather large at 6 months i would think. It would probably work ok, however there is an impaction risk at anything below 16 inches. To me personally it just...

    Not eating, Not doing anything. Halp ;-;

    Oh Sara i was not attempting to be argumentative either. Every dragon is of course different, but the general consensus is that juvies are better off between 105-110 so far as i have read. Adjustment can definetly be made on an individual basis of course. Im sorry if i came across more...

    Not eating, Not doing anything. Halp ;-;

    First of all 109 is perfect for a dragon of his age (105-110 for juvies). It is not until they are adults that the temps need to be lowered to 100-105. The real questing is when is the last time he has had calcium??? Where in Canada do you live that doesnt have a pet store? im in ontario and...

    beardie measurements w/o tail

    That's what I'm saying. The point is that people gauge where there dragon is at growth wise on snout to tail tip. There is a general guide as to if your dragon is on track based on snout to tip, but not snout to vent. I am requesting that there be a snout to vent scale posted so that we with...

    beardie measurements w/o tail

    I would love to see a scale of where they should be length wise from snout to vent. A lot of us have dragons with nips and its tough to tell if they are on track. Example, my 5 month old male is exactly 12" now, but he has a nip, im not sure how bad of a nip it is at this point. So is he 12" or...

    Not sure what to call this title...

    Vael will poop every time within 2 minutes of him hitting the warm water. Even if he just pooped in the viv 2 minutes earlier. Emmy on the other hand just tries to swim out. Then again, she never makes anything easy for me, even bath time. :banghead:
