Thank you, Tracie. We ended up burying Pac-Man in the front yard under the trash bin. I would have liked to bury him under a tree or among the wildflowers; but, we don't have anything like that in our yard. We scraped away as much of the rocks as we could; then, my son dug a fairly deep hole...

I think Pac-Man has died. Yesterday, he was moving around in his enclosure. He looked like he might have been improving. Today, we can't get any response from him. We tried putting him in a tub of warm water and that got no response whatsoever. My son tried to hear his heart by putting...

Pac-Man's enclosure is 4'x2'x2'. It's plenty big enough. The original UVB set up had to be replaced because the ballast had gone bad. I replaced it with the same type of tube: T5 HO 39W. The original fixture was from ReptiSun. The replacement fixture is from ReptiZoo. I don't recall the...

Two days ago, I checked on Pac-man and he was on his back next to his big rock/cave. I thought he was dead. I asked my son to check him and he came back and told me that Pac-man was still alive; but, there did seem to be something off about him. I was out of food for him; but, had planned on...

I tried using the uvb light that came with the 10 gallon starter kit that we got when we first got Pac--man. But, he went into hiding almost right away. I ordered from Amazon, Repti Zoo T5 HO UVB Lighting Combo Kit, Terrarium Hood with 10.0 UVB T5 Lamp (39W)...

I think the ballast in the uvb light fixture for Pac-man's cage has gone bad. Yesterday, My son came to me and said the light had burned out. I had a new one ready to go. So, he took the old light out and replaced it with the new light. It didn't come on; so, I had him try plugging it in a...

Rango is in third place in his category. I would like to vote for him; but, I don't have a credit card or Facebook account. Good luck to him.

KarrieRee, our town does not have a WalMart. I checked at Fred Meyer and the least expensive food scale was over $30. I did find one on Amazon for about $13. That's the one that I got. It can weigh up to 22 pounds and also has other settings for grams and other measurments. My son and I...

I can't even find endive at the grocery store. I feed my dragon kale and collards mostly. I grow them in my garden plot at the community garden. So, his greens are pretty fresh. I have not even considered trying to grow other greens. But, maybe if you have a place to grow your greens whether...

It's been just over a year since I asked about feeding Pak-man. He is over a year old now. I've cut back on his insects to just two or three days a week. I grow kale and collards in my community garden bed and have been able to offer him fresh greens every single day. Sometimes, he will let...

A sling is a good idea, I used to carry my children in slings; but, you could try a pet stroller as well, like the one in this picture: https://www.precious-pets-paradise.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/p/e/pet-gear-nv-pet-stroller-skyline-closed.jpg

I ended up just buying a replacement tube just like the one my sons both say is flickering even though I can't see the flicker.

Right now I am using a T5 HO 39 W 34" Reptisun 10.0 UVB tube light. Both of my sons can see it flicker; but, I can't. Even if I stare at it for several minutes, I do not see it flicker. If it is flickering, does that mean it needs to be replaced? I was watching Dav Kaufman's Reptile...

I still prefer Paki. That's what I call him; but, others still call him Pac-man. It's okay. I'm the one who feeds him and cleans his habitat. Just a reminder, I brought Paki home on June 10; so we've had him over 2 months. While I did not measure him back then, I guessed that his length was...

Thank you so much. I have a picture of my bearded dragon that I want to post into a more appropriate category. I understand how to do it now. I appreciate the help.

Beardie, thanks for the instructions. They were helpful; I'm not sure if would have figured it out on my own. I've uploaded two photos; but, I'm testing this out with just one. All I see as I am writing this message is a string of numbers and the letters XIMG in brackets before and after the...

I can write a comment, like this one; but, how do I share a photo? Can I drag and drop it into the comment window? My son and I finished making Paki's new enclosure. It turned out okay; but, if we were to do it again, there's things I would do differently. For now, it will work. I brought...
