Thanks Brandon. They are feeder locusts and she's settled down to sleep now so think she's ok just had me panicking a bit.

It was about 20 mins after energetically eating some locusts. She started black bearding and wretching and then threw up a chunk of locust covered in goo. She still seems agitated but the black beard has calmed down. Is there anything I should be doing to help her?

Thanks AHBD I'll get it set up

HI just a quick one my 2 year old laid eggs a few weeks ago I didn't know what was going on so didn't make a lay box or anything at the time and now feel awful but she managed. She's exhibiting the same behaviours again so I've quickly gone to get some sand and made her a nice lay box but every...

Thanks cooper I'll let her feast till her hearts content

Just a quick question... Is there a minimum/Maximum amount of calci worms I should be feeding my 2 year old a day? Ok it's actually every 2-3 days and greens the other days but anyway... I ask because her appetite seems to be huge at the moment and she'll easily get through 50-60 and keep...

So she stopped trying to dig or glass surf after laying the one clutch so I assume she's done laying now. I'm a little concerned though she seems to be on her basking spot virtually all the time now even when I take her out she wonders nearly straight back to the viv to bask again. She's also...

I couldn't get any calci/Phoenix worms but she's just eaten a lot (more than I'd usually let her) of very heavily dusted supers and drank loads of water which she rarely touches (i usually end up getting her to lick it off my finger) so I guess that's good. She does scare me to death though when...

Thanks cooper. I don't know where she's been hiding them she didn't seem any rounder than before. Will sort something out for her.

Hi my 2 year old has laid 15 eggs today. I feel bad as I should have seen it coming as she was glass surfing alot but I just thought the new uv light and warmer weather had perked her up. Anyway I didn't sort out a lay box or anything and now she's not eating and very lathergic so I was just...

Mines nearly 2 years old and still isn't a huge fan of cuddles during the day as there's too much exploring to do but try taking Finn out when the lights go off and he's sleepy. Mine will cuddle up for ages at night it just takes time and 4 months is still very young.

I find if I dip my finger in her water and hold in in front of her then she'll lick it off quite happily. I've not found any other way to get mine drinking

She's doing ok but the second time she did it she didn't have any water. Maybe the locust just didn't go down right. Poor thing. I didn't know beardies could retch

Hi this has only happened twice but it's scared me half to death both times... a few months ago my nearly 2 year old girl was having a bath she drank a lot of water which was really unlike her and then she suddenly started lurching forward full stretched mouth open tongue out. She looked in pain...
