Sorry to say I lost him this afternoon. He was doing better too. :(

I am friends with the owner of my local pet store. On Wednesday they got in a baby beardie, he was just skin and bone. I honestly don't know how he even survived the transit. They had force fed him a couple of crickets, and he looks to have eaten some mashed strawberry. On Friday I stopped in...

One bath later a good few drinks of water and no throw up. He did drool some which I've never seen him do before, and he left me a small bit of urates, all white and normal. I'm hopping it was just some residue from what ever he ate last. I'll see about trying to get him to eat in the morning.

hes been basking and acting like normal. I didn't try to get him to eat or drink this morning so there was no throwing up. unfortunately the nearest rep vet is 45 min away and there's no way to get a day off from work to take him until next week. I'm going to give him a bath in a few minutes...

He's almost 5, and no he didnt eat much before brumating but hes never been a good eater.

Hey, my Izzys been brumating the last month or so, I woke him up last week for photos with santa, and hes been awake since but he won't eat. He gave me a good bowel movement 2 days ago, but since then hes thrown up this brown/red ichor twice. And hes also pooed some out as well, he was really...

I'm from upstate ny, and I can tell you that when my Izzy was still tiny I kept him in a smaller 20gal L tank it held the heat in much better until he was old/large enough to upgrade. On the days it got really really cold. you know the ones when your furnace cuts out? or the powers out. I would...

It cost about $200 total for wood and supplies. The glass I got for free from a garage sale, and the slate I picked from a stream.

I've been planning and building my Izzy's tank since January. And It's Finally done :blob5: :blob5: So I decided to share it. It's 24"x24"x 56". With 1/4" glass in front and back. The stand is yet to be finished so having the front glass piece as the door is a hassle, which hopefully won't be...

I think I like your Idea. And would like to know how it turns out for you. Personaly I plan on placing a layer of sand on the bottom then covering it with flat slate pieces, not tile but actual slate stones. I'm lucky enough to have a slate stream nearby :D To prepare play sand you should...

I'm in the process of completing a viv for my little one, and I'm hoping some one has an idea about this. The viv is made of (front + back) two framed pieces of glass, the front opens and the sides are plywood. What I'm wondering about is where would be the best place to put the ventilation...

This is an old picture so hes grown a bit but you can definitely see his color. I'd post one of his nails but my camera is MIA . And just cause I feel like it heres a more recent one of him Outside.

We were out in the garden today, me trying to weed and Izzy trying to sample the local flora and fauna when I realized something. He has clear nails. . . . Yeah. . I've had him for over a year, it's kind of embarrassing actually. :oops: Anyway I remembered that clear nails was...
