So I have decided to give my boys Bell Peppers for the first time. I got Yellow, Orange and a Red to see about a variety (see what they go for). How should I prepare them? I started on the yellow one (cut it in small, diced pieces) and then was wondering if I should skin it? I took the core and...

I joined a Bearded Dragon group on Facebook to communicate with fellow Beardie lovers - and to get advise when needed. Well one day I was browsing fellow posts and noticed someone mentioned they gave their juvenile Bearded Dragon Calcium (with D3) dusted food 5x per week, then had their food...

Okay, so my cousin went to a pet store a short while back and found freeze-dried crickets and persuaded her mother into buying them for my Beardies. Now I wasn't keen on them as freeze-dried anything doesn't have really any nutritional value and I was a bit concerned about impaction (although if...

Oh, yes. I forgot to update this post! I don't think she digested any, just that she "bumped" some of the residue and had a tiny bit on her snout. She's been her normal self in both appetite and activity levels. :]

I want to begin by apologizing if this is in the wrong section - I figured it went hand-in-hand. Okay, so background information: I was giving Sparx her (which actually might be a he...) nightly bath and I decided to put her "bath tote" in the bath tub as she's grown quite a bit and can easily...

I'm considering naming all my reptiles after the Spyro games now! I have Spyro and Sparx... now I have an unnamed Tokay and Leopard Gecko (both female). I'm thinking maybe Elora and Cynder :lol:

I actually broke out my Playstation 1 to play them - but unfortunately I need a memory card for it now :roll: Once I get that, then I'll be set! I'm seriously craving to play that game again though - they were the best!

I'll call the vet clinic tomorrow and see about getting her and Spyro in - just to be sure they're both healthy. Now I've never owned Beardies so a vet visit with one is going to be an entirely new experience. What should I expect with them doing a fecal? I've heard of a few Beardies having...

I've been noticing that Sparx hasn't been digesting her crickets properly (I recently upgraded them from 1/4" and 3/8" to 1/2" - and they came in slightly larger than 1/2"). I have a second Beardie who is a smidge smaller than Sparx and he's been digesting them well. They're kept in similar...

Thank you so much! And I LOVED the Spyro games as well, if you couldn't notice! :lol:

They're all so gorgeous! Glad you were able to help them all out! And welcome to the site!

Loki is so handsome! And you can definitely see the mischievous look in his eyes! :lol: And I love your rats! I have a rat that I "adopted" from the pet store I used to work at - her name's Duchess! They're such amazing little critters! Welcome back!

He was originally priced at about $60-70 but the gentleman that was selling him felt bad that my friend wanted one so bad so he reduced it to $30. So I guess I ended up getting a wonderful deal since she didn't pay a penny when it came down to it. :lol: But I loved the name Spyro - I was hoping...

Thank you! As I am. If I knew she wasn't going to properly care for him, I wouldn't have got him for her. Oh well - I'm game for a new baby!

I've owned Sparx for a couple months now and she's doing wonderfully - and of course, my friend ended up wanting a baby Beardie too. Well yesterday was our local Reptile Expo and a group of friends and I went. I was planning on getting either a Tokay or a Leopard Gecko and everyone else wanted...
