Hi, not sure if this is behavior or health. I've seen posts and threads about dragons that haven't brumated before and I know that you can keep them from brumating but I'm wondering if they can skip a brumation on their own. Boga has brumated the past two winters and it's now almost January and...

Boga's in shed and part of her foot shed quickly/easily but around her toes there's been some that's taken longer. I fully admit to poking at her toes each day to see how it's progressing but I haven't pulled it. I lightly scratch with my nail, barely any pressure. So far it's not ready so she...

Ok, I used a candy cane to weight down a string to play with my cat knowing she would just chase it, not eat it. Boga was out and ran over to play and chomped down on the cane. It broke and before I could grab all the pieces, she grabbed one and chomped again. I shoved my thumb in her mouth and...

Hello! This morning, to my absolute horror, one of Boga's light fixtures broke. And not just quit working, flames literally shot out of it. No one was hurt and aside from the broken and burnt light fixture, nothing was damaged. Boga was curious but unharmed. Did I miss something vital in my...

Boga's been in shed this past week, so I've been monitoring her for shedding issues (and also because I find it fascinating). Yesterday everything was normal, I figured her belly would be shedding fairly soon as the color was about right. This morning I picked her up to check and there was a...

I'm going to redo Boga's back wall. I figured I'd take the appropriate sized wood and then glue smooth rocks on it. Is superglue ok to use? I also want to make her a sort of shelf - she wants to be up high in the cool area, plus this would let her use more of her space. So I have the basic...

I sent a sample of Boga's stool into the vet when this first appeared and he said there were no parasites. I thought maybe it was just something from her salad but I haven't given her anything red as a test and she still has this odd rusty coloration at the end of the urate. Her behavior is...

Does anyone know what this is coming from this adult? I noticed it when checking on their food/water. I haven't tried to remove it because I don't want to hurt him and for all I know, it's a normal part of his anatomy.

I have discovered after many trials that Boga simply hates mustard greens. She will not eat them here or there, she will not eat them anywhere. She will not eat them with bribe foods, she will not eat them with cool dudes. /end Dr. Seuss jokes. I've offered them alone, with other greens, and...

This is one of my favorites. My sister got a mini replica of the Crown Jewels when she went to London like a decade ago. I found it and let Boga wear it: This one was taken before I got her rock wall background up.

I've read the list of toxic insects for beardies, but are there any roaches that are toxic or shouldn't be fed to beardies? I was looking at Cape Cod Roaches and there were a lot of cool looking roaches I wouldn't mind getting. Some of them are marked "display roaches", but while I like to...

Hi! Boga had a longer shed than usual and I wasn't too worried until today. The tip of her tail has a notch in it. At first I thought it was loose shed, so I ran my thumb over it to see if it would flake off but it was a definite dip. There's no blood, no fluid discharge, and she doesn't seem...

I’ve noticed that after I play with Boga outside of her enclosure, she tends to lie down as if she’s tired. Since I take her out after dinner, I thought it was because it was close to bed time. But today I had her out while her tank was cleaned and she laid down and turned down her hornworms...

Hi, Boga's on Albon for coccidia and I've read lots of threads about giving them soy yogurt to help keep good gut bacteria, but I haven't seen suggestions on how to offer it? Yesterday I let her lick it off a spoon, she wouldn't take it that way today. So I dipped some bugs in it and she was...

Hi! I'm a long time lurker, first time beardie owner and this is my first post. This is Boga Louise, named for the lizard in Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith (because I am a Star Wars nut) and for Louise Belcher (because of her claws and the episode "Mutiny on the Windbreaker"): I put...
