    How long can a Bearded Dragon go without UVB?

    Hey. So, my Bearded Dragon's UVB bulb just blew. Stopped working. I'll be getting a new one soon, but it may not arrive for a week at least. Will he be fine for that long without it? And should I still offer Calcium supplements while the light is off?

    Only poops in bath?

    My beardie as of recent has only allowed himself to poop in the bath. I'm not sure if it's because he just prefers it, or if there may be an underlying issue. When he does poop it's big. What you'd expect from holding it in for a week and it's well formed, solid white urate with very little to...

    Bearded Dragon active but not eating

    For the past 5 days or so, my year old Bearded Dragon has been completely off his food. Sometimes he may take a bite out of his morning salad, but nothing else. He has a D3 10% Reptile systems UVB bulb, though it's going to be replaced after Christmas as it hasn't been changed in roughly a...

    How to kill leftover feeders?

    I have a few tubs of wax moths (Formerly wax worms) and darkling beetles (Formerly mealworms). I don't want to feed them to my beardie, the beetles as a just in case scenario and the moths because they will get everywhere if I open the tub and those things can devastate bee hives and I don't...

    Bearded dragon no longer interested in greens

    For 2 or 3 weeks now my beardie has not been interested at all in greens. He goes crazy for any insects, locusts, mealworms, morioworms, waxworms, anything so long as it moves. He's almost a year old and used to eat a whole bowl of greens from day one, but now he just kinda looks at them. He'll...

    Poop looks unhealthy

    So my beardie left out this for me to clean up today. Normally his poop looks like this, but his urate isn't all runny (I think it's urate mixed with poop making it brown), normally it's pretty solid, more like a chalky texture. I think that this could either be down to heat (My room has been...

    Good temperature to take a beardie out on a harness?

    So I live in Scotland, and if you've ever been here you'll know it's not exactly the most reptile-friendly country, but as it's just turning summer, what temperature should it be to take my beardie into the garden on a harness? He's 6/7, maybe 8 months old, I'm going to take him for his first...

    Veggie/fruit list of what's OK to feed rarely?

    So my Beardie is 6 months old and i'm trying to find out what he likes and what he doesn't like. I'm feeding him watercress and rocket salad as a staple, completely avoiding anything red and leafy. Today I tried him with a small chunk of my breakfast banana and he really enjoyed it, I'm certain...

    Why do beardies want attention?

    Just thought of this. Why do they want our attention so badly, so often? They always seem to seek us out when they get bored of running mad. Mines patiently waits at his glass when he's bored and if I don't notice he scratches at the wall until I pay him attention. For an animal that lives a...

    Never thought I'd protect a locust

    I come home from school, and see a locust moulting. "Oh dear!" I thought "They will get too big for my beardie soon!". I used to own praying mantis, and the locust shedding reminded me of them, so I decided to watch. About half way through the process, a smaller locust appears. It begins to bite...

    Impaction or overreaction?

    Accidental rhyme in the title. So my beardie has recently went into shed. He normally runs around his tank but he's recently just been sitting wierdly on his log. He moves when he gets fed and suddenly becomes his usual self, but when feedings over he returns to his log. I noticed he hasn't...

    Mood swing?

    So my bearded dragon, Odin, suddenly decided to change his temperament. He is normally a very chill dragon, resting on my chest and arms no problem but occasionally does bolt a bit before stopping, letting me catch him with no hassle. Today he apparently decided to hiss at my dad while I was at...

    On hide beetles...

    So as we all probably know, with crix comes with hide beetles. I want to know if these beetles or their larvae will make my beardie sick, because while I won't try to deliberately feed mine some, it's inevitable for them to crawl inside the tubes of the cricket keeper I use (helps me with the...

    Weird poop (With image)

    So I'm sitting there on my chair playing games with the tank behind me. I turn around and my beardie has released this thing from his bowels. Can anyone explain why it's so... Odd? Why there's yellow, and why it's such a light brown? Don't know his exact age but he's still small. I think he's...

    Hate the feeders

    Here's the problem; I am absolutely terrified of crickets, locusts, and all that resemble such. I'm not too scared of roaches, but the dubias they sell at my local pet store are far too big to feed my 2 month old beardie. silkworms, hornworms, and other staples not resembling crickets or locusts...

    Scarily relaxed beardie

    So about 4 days ago I got my first bearded dragon, Odin. I don't know exactly how old he is, but I think it's around 2 months. So I expected him to be really stressed and I'd have to leave him for a few days, but no. He instantly climbs in to his enclosure, starts basking, I leave him for an...

    Meet Odin!

    This is my first bearded dragon, Odin! The name not only comes from the god with the same name, but also a shortened version of "Ohdahviing" from skyrim. He's a red/citrus colour morph, and has a small kink in his tail that the store owner explained was a birth defect since hatching. You may see...

    How to keep locusts small?

    So today I got my first bearded dragon, Odin, he's a baby and we bought him from a specialised store, he has a bit of a bent tail, but according to the store owner that's it's a birth defect he had since hatching , and it doesn't seem to bother him. I've had no real problems (Other than him...
