I have a year old leatherback... He was very lethargic for a few months, didn't pass a poop for a month, wouldn't eat a thing... I assumed he was brumating but he lost quite a bit of weight... in the middle of summer. But now that it's winter and colder he's decided that he's going to be hyper...

You didn't? Well he's got this really weird looking almost puncture wound on his hand and two long cuts, then a ripped scale on the inside of his finer =/ I try to examine his paw and he starts flinching it away rapidly like he's in pain ; Hissed at me once too.

Hello all, Been a while since I've been here but I'm back with some Pancake problems again. So just to start off I keep my 10 month old beardie in a 75 gallon under a SolarGlo mercury all-in-one bulb 160 w (I think that's the big one?) It's a UVB bulb but the mercury is what creates the heat...

So I had to leave for literally two days-- But I left in the late afternoon after feeding and tending to my beardie, left my parents a care sheet-- ALl they had to do was turn his lights on and off and give him a salad- Came home the next night. And it's like I came home to a very different...

AHH it makes me happy to know you guys care so much of my lil panqueuque <3 He had no serious injuries besides a week of stress, and he's chilling out on my leg watching the living room life. C: Here are some pictures of him currently!! And this is his tail c: It she very well, stuck to...

I've seen a lot of people using tile- did you use caulk?? Just wondering if they're a permanent fix on the tank or if you slide them together and fit them nice and snug? I have a stand downstairs I'll just have to take apart and put it back together.

Hello Kerrie!!! Thanks for replying!!! I have a Solar-glo bulb in a deep dome dish- It's a mercury bulb so it emits UVB rays and heat all in one! I made sure to read up on research for them- They aren't the best I guess because they're very sensitive to being bumped or moved around, but they...

Hi!! So- I know my tank isn't the closest thing to being as gorgeous as a lot of other people- But I'm doing the best with what I can afford. So this is Pancake's set up- It's a 75 gallon tank, I have a Solar-glo lamp and bulb that I just learned I spent WAY too much money on. His...

As far as I can see, he was never bit! But in the picture he had deep claw gashes on his tail. He also had a deep gash on his cheek next to his eye, I think my cat was testing him out. So, Pancake is enjoying being cuddled as a spoiled baby...

Yeah-- but you know, accidents happen-- and we can learn from our mistakes!! He is all scabbed up and healthy again, and his tail is shedding now! A mistake I've definitely learned a TON from lol! And there are so many people willing to help on this site with a ton of good information. All...

Hey !! Just wanted to post a hopefully final update!!!! It's day 3 from being attacked and his wounds are scabbed and look to be healing up really nice! Granted it's harder to tell on his tail thanks to his shed. No discoloration in his tail and he's using it just like normal! Here's his most...

Thanks! He's quite the boy <3 I'm assuming no bathing because it might get unwanted bacteria in the wound? Would running under water still be ok? I get to work a 15 hour shift tomorrow so I'm going to have to call them at work.

Thank you everyone for all the help!!! Now I know a closer reptile vet to drag him to for any future complications!!! ^^ As an UPDATE::: I gave the vet a call today and told them the situation, and I'm still waiting for them to call me back. They asked of I'd like to run him in for a dropoff...

Thank you, (also thank you to everyone above), I'm calling our local vet downtown asap in the morning. I know sje doesn't do reptiles but I'll take your suggestion. It's not like i'm asking for a surgery- literally just the meds. Maybe she can swing something =/ And yeah- I live in Wisconsin so...

Judging by the title you should know what happened... I have had Pancake for 2 weeks, he's a 6/6.5 month old now and I've learned he likes to make a pretty big mess with his poop. SO I was in the middle of cleaning the tank- lid off. Left my room, door shut to call my dad to pick up more paper...

OHMYGOODNESS!!!!!! Kevin is such a gorgeous boy!!!! Eep! I showed my mom and she loves him! Hopefully one day Pancake will be as big and beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing your beardie blessing !!! X3

OHMYGOODNESS!!! I'm so happy to see so many people actively replying and offering any sort of tidbits of advice and information! Ig makes me feel so much better to know that each Beardie is different and, honesly, I feel quite a bit less stressed. So a little update- I decided to name him...
