My beardie has a lump on his tail that the vet thinks is either a tumor or cyst. He wants to go right ahead and take it off. We have surgery scheduled for 1/29 and I’m honestly really scared about the anesthesia. Looking for some reassurance/other owners whose beardies have been fine after going...

Hello, I took my bearded dragon on a blanket on the roof to play. (It’s enclosed, we live in Brooklyn so there’s not many other places for him to be active) and he ate a spider. I tried to pull it out of his mouth but it was already gone. I’m really scared it was infected of venomous. The vet...

Hello all, I just ordered some water crystals for my dubia roaches and it came with this roach chow. Do you think it is healthy to feed them or I should just stick with fruits and veggies? Thanks!

Hey all! Since the days are getting longer, should I be keeping LJ's lamps on for longer than 12 hours? I have heard some do this and others do not. I am not sure of the possible up/downsides. Thanks!

My dragon has been on antibiotics for almost two months and is not showing an improved WBC count. The vet still does not know what exactly he has and we are going in for an EPH Monday, to see if we can determine what the WBC are reacting to. We switched from the antibiotic Excede to Fortaz...

His WBC count got even higher and they want to do an EPH to determine what the cells are reacting to. They also suggested I continue antibiotics in the meantime which I’m very scared to do

I’m still VERY suspicious that he is not feeling well…still. They are very vague with me and said they “found nothing in the blood culture; he’s not septic.” We will being going in today, in about an hour, so I will be sure to get the answer. His nighttime temps are 75-80! I will let you know...

Hello! My bearded dragon, LJ has been fighting an infection for quite some time now. In late November, I brought him to the vet for an impaction. While we were there, I also had them take blood and they found an elevated WBC count. They took X Rays and do not think he has a URI, however, will...

I have both digital probe thermometers and an IR temp gun! His appetite is good! He eats his salad every morning and gets 10-15 Dubias every 4-5 days (Sometimes I switch it up for BSFL). Superworms as treats. I replaced the hammock with a ramp and he seems to be basking again!! It resides...

So, today, I moved his hammock and replaced it with a ramp that resides slightly lower and has a larger surface area. He seems to like this alongside the 150watt!! I think despite the hammock being very low it was still a little too close. He jumped onto the ramp immediately and basked for over...

Here’s his enclosure!

I can attach an image when I get home from work!

What do you mean switch the bulb rarely?

I’ve tried mounting it and then it fluctuates a lot throughout the day. The middle temp then also drops. He also doesn’t like to sit under the 150watt.

100watt: Basking is 98-104 (takes an hour to reach proper temps in the morning). Leaves middle gradient at 87-91 150watt: Basking is 105-107 with middle gradient at 90-95 Oddly the cool side always stays at about 78

Hey all! I’ve been using a 150 watt heat bulb for some time, however I noticed my beardie started avoiding it. Since this, I switched it to a 100watt - which he seems to like better. But it’s not getting his enclosure hot enough. Does anyone have any tips? When I mount the 150watt bulb, the...

Hello! I currently live with a roommate, who has a cat. I just stumbled across information that states cat germs can be highly infectious to beardies. My dragon and the cat are not allowed to/never interact. However, the cat sheds A LOT. I am always vacuuming, there’s never been fur in his...

Yes. He has a piece of decor under his UVB light where he reach its effects from like 7.5-8” inches away if he is standing up tall (9” if he’s laying down) and then in the areas it’s not under the decor piece, it’s farthest length is 12”!
