Its very important to make sure the temps are perfect, they need 80 on the cool end 100's on the hot end and 120-135 basking. The best greens to feed them are endive, escarole, and dandelion greens. Mustard, turnip, collard, and romain lettuces arent bad but give them little to no nutritional...

Hi everyone. I'm going to be moving soon and need to know what the best way to transport my guys would be. I have 2 beardies, 1 uro and 1 skink. They will need to be out of their enclosures for at least 2-4 hours, depending on how long it takes to take the tanks apart then put them back together...

You really shouldnt feed them bugs at all, except as a treat. I even think that 5 a week is way too much. They can get really sick from eating too much of it. Just because they love them doesnt mean that they can eat them and be healthy. I dont give mine bugs at all, the treats I give are...

I realize this is very old, but if you still need the info a great site with good caresheets is deerfernfarms.com, also the repticzone.com forums has a forum for uros and its the most informative and knowledgeable forum I've ever found for uros. Most of the people who use that forum have owned...

You really should never ever put your uro and beardies together..not because of the fighting factor but because they are very different species and both carry different diseases. Even if none of them are sick they can still be carrying some type of illness, that if say a beardie gave it to your...

It can be done. I know alot of people who do, but say it would be best if they were clutch mates or purchased at the same time. The original uro might not let the new one stay in his/her home. Also, its really hard to tell the sex of uros especially if they are younger, so its not the best idea...

I think that is a really good idea. I would rather have it fake to look like mushrooms instead of real ones just because of the possibility of pieces breaking off and getting eaten or molded or something-keeping in mind that they wouldn't be just shelves that something sits on and thats it, they...

Gotta ask, do his nails ever get stuck between the bamboo? Also wondering since you used liquid nails to glue them and that is part of the basking spot do you get fumes from the glue and heat? I really love the way your ramps look, and I love the backing, where does everyone get that??

If its under 7 or 8 inches it needs to be on paper towels, tile, or some type of non particle substrate, after theyre big enough playsand or tile. If you use sand make sure everything in the tank sits on the tanks floor, not on top of the sand- they dig alot and could dig under the rocks or...

He probably won't eat very much at first just because of stress and being in a new home. Just keep offering veggies every day, maybe even twice a day, and don't handle him at all for awhile. Uros seem to like bright colors so chop up some orange and red bell peppers to put on top of his salad...

You can think of it in 2 ways, if you leave your tank the way it is then it will be a huge change for the beardie, but it will get used to it faster. You could add wood to help him/her get used to the new environment with something familare but the wood chips arent very safe at all. If I were...

Hey everyone! Nobody has posted on this part of the site for a long time, so I thought I would liven it up a bit and post a bunch of pictures of my girl and her new tank. The tank isn't brand new, she has been in it for a couple of months already I think. Always heres some pics enjoy! This is...

We'll have to start an underground reptile breeding/trading system.. The thing that I really don't understand about this is that the reptile community is in a way saving all these reptiles from different countries...Having them brought over here and then breeding them to establish a group here...
