    Five year old beardie brumation question.

    Hello Tracie! I brought him out to give him a bath today because he did look a bit dehydrated. He drank a lot of water from a syringe and I'm going to keep bringing him out to bathe him so he starts looking hydrated again. He never looks dark and is always bright, especially when I put him...

    Five year old beardie brumation question.

    Hello All, Every year around late August, my beardie begins a semi-brumation which eventually falls into a full brumation by late September/ early October. Generally, I get a fecal done on him but I missed it this time and he hasn't had a bowel movement since he started brumating, even with...

    Too hot for beardie on cool side?

    Yeah, I think I will try that. Today it wasn't too bad but I'm mostly worried about the summer. I am working on making screen inserts for plexi panels on the front, that way itll be able to vent.

    Too hot for beardie on cool side?

    I thought about buying a timer like the one I have for his lights but the outlet is industrial looking so I'm not sure that would work. The air conditioner itself, unfortunately, has no timer. I will see if I can buy some sort of adapter so that I can plug the AC into the timer. That would be...

    Too hot for beardie on cool side?

    Hello All, I'm really concerned that my viv is keeping in too much heat. Today it was 88 degrees outside and it got really warm inside. It is currently 88 degrees in my room and in the enclosure it was about 90. I turned off his lamps for the day because it was just too hot. Basking was 105...

    Dunner Dragons?

    I kind of feel like any new morph is going to have physical challenges, after all they are mutations. I have a leatherback who is a very finicky eater and frequently gets parasites because he stresses himself out. I've tried to find a reason as to why he gets stressed but I've found nothing. My...

    Can't get heat right!??!

    Do you keep the ceramic heat emitter on during the day or no? If you do I suggest you turn it off. Also, if your dragon does not like 110 temps you could try lowering it to 105, that should help reduce the other side. It looks like he's getting older now and may not like the 110-115 range of...

    Can't get heat right!??!

    Are you using just a ceramic heat emitter? Those are best used at night because beardies require bright light during the day. I suggest you get a 75 watt basking bulb, the kind that focuses the heat in one specific area. The heat emitters tend to span the tank. Then on the cool side you can use...

    Baby Beardie with Sepsis, please help!

    Tracie! I'm so glad that you replied to this, thank you. Okay... He is in a 20 gallon long aquarium with a 100 watt basking bulb that measures 105-113 F. He has a repti-sun 10.0 tube UVB bulb mounted on the inside of the viv. He has tile substrate and a hide on one side. He is fed crickets...

    How to transport my beardie?

    Yes, thank you, I ended up finding a small pillow case and putting rice in it and microwaving it. Then I put him in a shoebox and covered it and he fell right asleep all cozy. I think that the rice was a good idea and it kept warm for about three hours. :)

    Baby Beardie with Sepsis, please help!

    Hello, My friend got a baby bearded dragon about two and a half months ago and was eating great at first. Over time his appetite began to decrease and he hardly grew at all. He was about 14 grams the first week and is now only 11 grams and he's about 8" and he's about 4-5 months old! She is...

    How to transport my beardie?

    Hello everyone, With Thanksgiving approaching my school has a break (as most do) and I have to take my beardie from my apartment to my mom's house. My beardie has been brumating off and on since late august and he just came out today (not sure for how long). Needless to say he looks pretty...

    Just Bought an UTH for Dubias but can't use on plastic?

    Personally I've been keeping the dubias for awhile now and they're still breeding in 70 degree temps in my house. I think I've bred super dubias through natural selection haha.
