Hi, Lola is my first bearded dragon and she just turned one year old :D I have some questions about her diet: She stopped eating crickets about two months ago. I have been feeding her goliath worms, butter worms, and giant mealworms. She eats about 3 goliath worms, 5 butterworms, and 15...

Yeah, the vet checked and she does not have parasites..do you think she will eat normally again? this worries me a lot.

Lola is 9 - 10 months old. I keep her in a 55 gallon tank. I have a MVB that is about 5 months old. The basking temperature is 100 degrees. The other side of the tank is usually around 75degrees. I have a digital thermometer with a probe for the basking area. the flooring is repti-carpet. She...

Hi everyone, I have a female bd. Her name is Lola and she is about 9-10 months old. Until september, she was eating fine. Then she began to eat less and less. I changed her diet from crickets to mealworms, butterworms, and waxworms. She stopped eating everything but the waxworms..at this point i...

Hi, thank you so much for your suggestions...he is about 7 - 8 months old. At home I have a uvb repto glow 10.0 . I just bought a new one to replace the old one. Should I stop feeding him the crickets? how many worms should he be eating daily? I was told that superworms can be dangerous for...

Hi everyone I am a first time owner of a lovely bd and everyone here has been helping me since Lalo was 5 inches long. Now Lalo is about 20 inches long and 7 months old. He used to eat about 50 crickets a day plus some mealworms or butterworms. He has never been to fond of his veggies despite...

Hi everyone, As always I come to this forum for any questions about my bd..I trust you 100%. :D I am somewhat concerned because my bd has a gray spot on the top of his head...It looks like when he is about to shed, but he recently shedded and the spot is still there, it starts at the snout and...

Hi, My baby has grown a lot over the past five months...He is 15 inches long from tip of the nose to tip of the tail. I checked the growth chart and he seems to be on target...Anyway a couple of days ago I started to notice a change in his eating pattern. He is eating much less crickets now than...

Thanks for the advice...I do pick her up sliding my fingers under his chin and under his belly, but I did not place a hand on his back. I will try this. Will he ever come to my hand on his own?

Hi, I was reading the thread about petting and I got so jeaulous.. My beardie is about four months old. I've had him since he was about 5 weeks old and I am constantly petting him throughout the day. I still have to coax him out of the tank and although he lets me handle him, I can't tell if he...

Thanks! this makes me feel much better...I hope that Lola will enjoy begin around people just like your Regis...

Hi, I am also kind of new around here, but I will tell you what others shared with me. First of all, a heat rock is a big NO! it can burn your lizard really bad because they don't feel much on their stomachs and they will hurt themselves before they realize that they are too hot! I also know...

Hi again, I am really grateful of all the support I get in this forum..that said, I need some help again..I am a school teacher and Lola is our bearded dragon class pet. Lola is about 3 months old and she spends monday through friday at the school, where she just moved into a 40 gallon breeder...

Hi, two weeks ago I got a 40 gallon breeder tank for my three month old bd, Lola. I have noticed that she stays in the basking area and does not go to the other end of the tank..I thought that with more room, she would run around more..The temperature in the basking area is 110 degrees and 80...

Thanks for your advice..and I have another question..when people say that their bd is tamed or docile, does that mean that when you put your hand in the tank it will climb on it on his own? What kind of behavior should I expect when Lola is tamed?
