It probably has been awhile...He was/is in pretty bad shape.

As some of you may know, I am trying to help my friends beardie. I just gave him a bath today, and he drank more then I had ever seen a beardie drink before. Can he overdrink?

Have you tried phoenix worms?

Thanks for the advice guys. No, I don't think he is thermo-regulating, because I know he can gape: I have seen him do it. I think he is just extremely lazy/weak. Will definitely try the baby food and the warm water...

Hey guys, My buddy has a Beardie. He just called me, and asked what was wrong with his beardie. From what he told me, the beardie has the beginnings of MBD. I told him, and told him he HAS to get a UVA/UVB bulb. He doesn't have the money to pick it up until Friday (When he gets paid). The...
