    Butterworm Weight

    This is going to sound weird but can anyone weigh a butterworm for me? I’m trying to see what weight it’s equivalent to in crickets ? A cricket is .25g each.

    Black Solider Fly Larvae

    I’ve decided to switch from crickets to BSFL but now I’m unsure of how many to buy (I have to buy bulk online) because I don’t know how many she would approx eat a day. Right now she eats 20-25 1” crickets a day (I offer more but she doesn’t want them) without her salad (she gets picky and...

    Switching From Crickets

    Hello I’ve raised my bearded dragon on crickets (since 5 weeks) and raw foods (last 2 months she started to eat) escarole, prickly pear, mustard greens etc. I’d like to switch her over to some other type of live food but wasn’t sure exactly what I should give her. I have to stop crickets...

    Baby Shedding

    So when I first got my Beardie her tail was shedding without her body. I’ve had her long enough now that I’ve seen her body shed minus the tail, her tail shed alone with no sign of any other body part ready to shed, now it’s just her arms and legs getting ready to shed without her tail or body...

    UVB Making Basking Spot HOT

    I recently got a new uvb (reptisun t5 5.0 HO) to go in my 55g tank. It’s a good distance from her basking spot area but the surface temp of the decoration is 123f and I don’t know what to do. I can’t rearrange her tank to still have her spot hot but not too hot. It’s mounted on the very top...

    Size

    I have had my baby for 2 weeks and have weighed and measured her. I feel like shes very small compared to every other beardie her age that I've come across. Is she considered small? At 11 weeks she was 25g and 7.5 inches. Its been 3 days now but I dont have the scale with me (blizzard and I cant...

    Phoenix Worms

    I'm looking into feeding these from the original site. I have a bunch of questions! Do they have to be from that site? They seem expensive compared to the $25 for 1000 crickets I pay INCLUDING shipping :shock: Are they good to feed exclusively to a 3 month old beardie? She LOVES crickets but...

    CHE Not Helping

    I recently got a 100 watt CHE per the suggestions here and its great for overnight keeping her air temps around 75. However during the day her tank doesnt get past 80 air temp on the warm side, which is what it was without the CHE. The tank is a 55 gallon with ceramic tile substrate and a 100...

    Temperature

    I recently got a 55 gallon upgrade for my baby, the hot side is only measuring 82.6F and I'm not sure how to make it warmer (her basking spot surface temp is 100-105 depending where). I have a small heating pad from my 20 gallon on that side but its not helping I guess. The substrate is ceramic...

How do I get the 200 huge crickets out of the mix? or atleast half of them, some could be...

    New Beardie Owner

    I have a almost 10 week old dragon and I’ve kinda been winging it when it comes time to feed her! I got 1/2” crickets shipped to me, so based on that how many and how often should she have? Is there a way to tell she’s hungry? At first she hardly ate but now that she’s been with me a week she...

    Stick On Thermometer Stuck

    My tank came with three thermometers stuck in it. I'm assuming they thought it was a good idea however they're dials and I don't trust them after reading the pinned up post here. How in the world can I get them off without harsh chemicals that could hurt my baby dragon? I tried to just peel but...
