Yeah cuz even with supers he's been like no 😑 do you have any recommendations to keep him comfortable while he's going through this? He's been annoyingly picky and doesn't wanna come out of his hide!

Hi everyone! Has anyone noticed their beardies brumation pattern switch as they get older? Drogon just turned four. I mentioned in earlier posts that he was extremely picky with food lately. We've been having an unseasonably cool spring/summer here in SC along with more cooler rainstorms. Now I...

LMAO! Don't worry I wouldn't include any buggos. Just good ole greens and fruits. XP I've tried everything and he's just becoming a stubborn old.bastard lol. I don't want him to get any nutrient issues or eat too much protein. Think it's okay?

That's the thing I've been persistent for years and he's getting pickier as he gets older. At this point I just want him to be healthy and not get any nutrient deficiencies. Karrie I've tried everything including different veg and he's just not about it!

Drogon is about 4 now :) I was going to use this since I just tried to feed him a nice salad with small mealie beetles and went right for them..I tried sneaking some arugula in his mouth and he made an almost growling noise like he was annoyed lol 😆 Do you think making my own dragon green...

Oh he's being typical all right. Made him a nice salad and he went straight for the bugs. Every time he was chewing I snuck in some argula and he made a weird growling noise like he was annoyed 🤣 I wasn't gonna force feed but just use the drip syringe method or make my own dragon smoothies and...

@xp29 @KarrieRee Hey guys have you tried critical care herbivore mix? A friend says she uses it when her dragons don't wanna eat greens

So bugs with the salad are okay? Honestly I think it's the only way he's ever gonna eat some veg. I chop the veg really small so he accidently eats some when aiming for a bug 😂

Here's the thing: he's so damn lazy that he'll only take bugs from my hand. I put them in the salad bowl and usually he'll take them, especially if they're supers but today he was like .___. no. Usually I top them with mealworms or mealie beetles but he hasn't budged. Idk what to do!

I did have some hornworms that he enjoyed. Oddly enough, I even put some supers on top of the salad since i was desperate and he just looked at it like -___- Im just so lost.

I will. I do also provide natural UVB every day, so what other suggestions do you have

Hi Everyone! This year, Drogon had a rough shed that put him in a bad mood and he's been having issues with his diet since March. When I took him to the vet, she suggested only providing greens and giving him more baths for pooping troubles. He's been okay with baths, but he just won't eat...

Oh okay :) Ever since I did a tank upgrade, he seems to really love laying in the sand xD In all seriousness, this year's shed seems to be stressing him out, poor baby.

Hi everyone I've noticed that during drogons shedding, he's been lying in the sand like this. I'm kinda worried. Do you think this is just shedding behavior or something else?

Yeah I'm gonna pick up a 75 watt bulb. I have a 100 and it gets up to 105 in basking at times

Is avoiding basking normal too? His temps are within normal parameters but he just wants to hang in cool areas

Thanks for the quick reply! Yeah he turns four in a few months so he's not new to this! Doing bath time now and my neck just got ripped up 🤣

Hi everyone! Just curious but do your dragons get super sleepy during shedding? Drogon is currently shedding on his back and belly. He's not into eating much, is avoiding basking for long periods of time, and everytime I take him out, he keeps falling asleep on my chest. I've also noticed it...

Aww thank you so much! He really is like my son and I love him with my entire heart 💜💜

Thanks for the suggestion! I actually just moved his basking bulb a bit and it's staying at a stable temperature :)
