Sorry I haven't posted an update, but I haven't had one until today. I went back to the vet. They took an x-ray. The x-ray has a large gray area that covers most of her right side. They said it is fluid. They're not sure what the fluid is from. You couldn't even see her internal organs. I...

I may do that. Earlier she started digging in her cage so I'm really hoping that it is eggs. She's been super active up early in the day, so maybe it's a sign she's getting ready to lay.

Thank you! The thing is, she's still running around this very minute with good gold color. No black bearding or stressing out. I don't understand it? She still has the mass in her belly and the vet felt pretty convinced that it was either an enlarged organ or eggs. I'm debating on the x-ray (we...

I'm really not sure if this should be posted here or in the Health forum, but here we go... Toni is a little over 9 years old. She's housed in a 2x2x4 custom cage. I use a PowerSun mercury vapor bulb (always have). She's on newspaper. I feed supers and greens with some calcium powder thrown in...

I believe that they bond. Or at least have relationships with you. Toni is very attached to me. If someone else is holding her, she stares at me until I get her back or else will try to climb back up my arms when I'm handing her to someone. She's just not as comfortable with other people as...

Oh and the dark spots on her hand and side are poo as well. She does this while I'm at work, so I don't have the chance to prevent her from smearing it on the walls and herself.

Oh yes my arteeest only works with the finest poo. Seriously, she pooped right next to the wall and then ran through it over and over again for about an hour. I looked over and saw her just smearing it everywhere. She's still going through a major case of spring fever and it is driving me nuts!

So, Toni has been making this gorgeous artwork for me several times a week. I'm so proud, I needed to share it with you guys! Take a gander! :shock: This is a close up of the arteeest Narrow shot of her with the artwork in the background Wide shot of the masterpiece So...my...

I've always loved lizards. When I was about five, I would go outside and catch anoles. Unfortunately I didn't have the knowledge that I do now, but I took very good care of them for a little kid. I would take them into the bathroom, close the door and spend hours in there getting them used to...

Has anyone else heard anything new on this beardie? If he's not eating a lot of crickets, I like to use super worms. They're easy to take care of and easy to gut load. Put them on some oatmeal for two days and they're good to go.

It's about time to replace Toni's bulb. I have a Megaray in her cage now, but I recently got a hold of a defective megaray and now I'm a little skeptical. What do you all use? I want to compare and make the best choice. All opinions welcome!

Whoops! I thought you meant to take him in the pool! I didn't even think about tap water...that's what I bathe mine in all the time...sorry... :D

Yeah I was beginning to wonder...I just had her on my bed and she tried pooping on my bed!!!! She's really trying to punish me with this pooping thing! I know everything's healthy because she just had a vet appointment 3 weeks ago. :roll: :P

Ouch! I was wondering because this behavior really isn't like her. She usually doesn't even poop in her cage...she waits for me to give her a bath :roll:

I wouldn't think so. They absorb water through their vent, so they would be getting the chemical into the system.
