    How do you guys keep your dragon’s tank warm in the winter?

    I live in VT, my beardie is presently in brumation, I would prefer he brumate in my winter but...anyway I use 150 watt heating/basking bulbs in the winter and I do have 2" thick insulation board against back of tank ( which is on desk near a window). My tank is 48 x 24 x 24, I am thinking of...

    Missing beardie- need help ASAP

    I'm in the US and my beardie has been brumating for over 3 weeks now, maybe she found a hiding place to brumate. When my boy is out and about he tends to stay near the walls if he's feeling nervous. Do you have anything near the walls that she could hide behind or under, any permanent...

    Dubia roaches

    Finally got the bsfl, put some in his salad and he did end up eating some salad with the worms, but when the worms were gone he was done eating. How many of the bsfl should I be giving him? I did order large but they are still pretty small. Do I put them in his salad daily? Thanks for any...

    Dubia roaches

    He really does not like the salads, he will only eat a small amount each day and has gone many days without eating any of it. I put bee pollen on it but that makes no difference, I tried putting dubias in it and he picks them out and leaves the rest. I will try bsf when I get them, any other...

    Dubia roaches

    Thank you, I was worried about gout but had the understanding that dubias were the best protein source for beardies. Now that I know he should only be fed insects 2-3 days a week I am wondering if the schedule for supplements should also be changed. I have been giving him calcium without D3 4...

    Dubia roaches

    He gets horn worms as a very occasional treat and he is pretty resistant to salads most days. If he gets the roaches just 2 or 3 times a week how many should he have on those days?

    Dubia roaches

    I just switched Obidiah to dubias. He is 1 yr. And 1 month old, 465 grams and 19 1/2" long. I have been told by one fellow owner to feed him 10 a day and by another to only feed him 4 or 5 a day. Both said to get the large size (3/4"). He LOVES them and will stand around after I feed him...

    7 month old only eating every other day

    I have a probe that measures both temp and humidity on basking spot but not a probe that only measures humidity. Right now I have 3 large water bowls in his tank (120 gallon) and that is not enough. In warmer weather I struggle to keep humidity down and now I can't keep it up. I will look...

    7 month old only eating every other day

    Yes you helped me with those shortly after I got him. Those are on point and I do have a solar meter so I know the uvb is still good, I have been having trouble keeping the humidity up, it is usually around 10-15 so I have been misting the tank and him acouple of times a day. He also is just...

    7 month old only eating every other day

    My beardie is 7 months old, 333 grams and 18 1/2" long. He has started eating every other day recently and I was wondering if that is normal. I still offer live food every day and put a salad in his tank all day, but every other day he does not eat anything.

    Question about giving meds

    OK for anyone with the same question I called my vet for clarification and she said it's 2 weeks after the last dose - so if I gave meds on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday the next dose would be due 2 weeks from Thursday.

    Question about giving meds

    My beardie is on meds for coccidia. The dose is once a day for four days, repeat in 2 weeks and repeat again 2 weeks after that. My question is: is it 2 weeks from the first day I started the meds or 2 weeks from the fourth day? Or does it not matter.
