My grandmother would feed her greens. That's about it. She's to scared to do anything else for her lol

So when I went to check on rufus she was tucked under her log. I bathed her for about 30 minutes and she really perked up. She became active and bright and overall her normal spunky self. I believe this to be dehydration. Do you guys think so? She's very healthy but I was away for 2.5 weeks and...

I always loved reptiles from a young age. My parents wouldn't let me get one but when we moved, I worked hard on school to get an anole. After we moved to a big house I was leaning toward a uromastyx. But I found beardies who were so cute and I loved them. I waited several months until summer...

I mean she wouldn't just let her hand get burnt right? BTW its 98-105 on the rock.

It'd a normal rock from what I hear heat rocks are bad.

Hi all. I recently bought a new rock for my beardies tank. She loves sitting on it. However, it does get hot. My temp gun has not arrived yet so I'm thinking that it's in the 105 range. She sits on it must of the day but when she does she kinda raises her right hand and stands on the back of her...

Thanks for all the help. I will try the new veggies. :blob8:

Well I noticed my beardie doing the poop dance. She left me a big surprise. So no undigested things and no blood. It wasn't runny or smelly. I guess it must've taken forever for the poor girl to pass all those supers. I notice a huge boom in activity! I'll stick to bugs once a week no more than...

Ok. I will try that. Thanks for relieving me about her not being impacted but rather taking forever to pass a lot of supers. I mean she would be super sluggish and have no appetite if she was impacted and I would have felt hard masses in her belly. You were awesome and so helpful. Thanks! :D

99-104 degrees. I make sure to hold it 2 inches away as I saw your earlier thread on the subject.

How can I get her to bask more? I'm afraid if I always put her on the basking spot she'll stop going on her own.

She basks daily but not for hours like other people say. I guess shes boss and she knows how hot she wants it. She spends a good amount of her day in the warm end beside her basking rock.

Yep. Thanks so much for the help. I'll continue with baths and hold off supers. Thanks! :D

Oh cool! Yeah I think she could use softer foods. Its kinda my fault as I just overloaded her with supers and its been taking like 10-12 days for her to digest BC theres so many she ate. But she is acting normal and has no hard lumps in her tummy. Adults just have a slow metabolism and the fact...

Thank you so much guys. I really appreciate the help. Will try horn worms. I just don't like that they grow so fast. I hope they're not too big for her.

Yeah. I thought it couldn't be impaction just cause her belly feels empty per se. There aren't any hard lumps. And I also heard that when impacted they won't eat out move. But she's eating and active. I'll just try the phoenix worms. The Hornswollrms seem tough to take care of lol.

Hi there. I agree with cutting back on the supers, but I think it does sound like she just had a little too much supers. I'll cut back to once a week and I'm looking to try phoenix worms as a staple. I only have one dragon so its not too expensive. Her cool side is about 80, her hot side is...

Hi thanks for the quick reply. Do you think it is an impaction? Or just her taking a while to digest her worms. I mean she is really active always and she is a voracious eater for both veggies and worms. If it was an impaction, wouldn't his poop be bloody and wouldn't I feel a hard lump(s) in...

So my beardie is about 5 years old now. She has always pooped only 1-3 times a week, but I've only had her since she was about 3. She has always been on the schedule of insects once a week and veggies the rest. It has come to my attention that insects (especially super worms) take a lot longer...

Its been 1.5 months and there's no infection. Its healing well. Thanks.
