I think you may be right, Tracie. She still seems to get a little sleepy during the day, but she's a lot more active than she had been for the past 2 months. At least she's eating crickets now, so I feel a lot better.

She definitely lost a little weight. I could see that. It was more noticeable when I picked her up. Once a week I would give her a bath to hydrate her and she felt like skin and bones. Surprisingly, after I fed her today, she looks normal again.

I just went through my first brumation. I should say, Lizzie just went through her first brumation. Having never had a reptile for a pet, it was kind of strange to have an animal that didn't eat for two months. Every day I provided fresh salad and Bearded Dragon food, but Lizzie would have no...

It's funny that you guys should mention this. I toyed with the idea of having a hole in the floor that I could slide a Tupperware container in and out from below. I'm sure it would be a full-time job cleaning up inside her house with this set-up. I've been thinking of drilling a 3-inch hole...

Thank you guys for your input. I've scrapped the idea of stickers. The enclosure she's in now is an exo-terra 36" x 18" x 18". I've got a beautiful dessert scene that is taped on from the outside. I would love to have something like that in her new enclosure, but of course, it would need to be...

UPDATE: I heard back from the seller at Amazon: "Hi there, Thank you so much for your question. RoomMates wall decals are non-toxic and free of harmful chemicals like phthalates and lead. They are fully CPSIA-compliant, and have undergone many rigorous safety and flammability tests." They...

Hi guys, I am building an oak enclosure for my bearded dragon. I painted the interior with low VOC white paint and I will use a water based clear. I'd like to put some dinosaur stickers inside that I saw on Amazon. I'm concerned about the toxicity. I was wondering if anyone ever did that. I...
