I wrote this letter to my bearded dragon Liz who we had put to sleep last night after a long battle with MBD and constant egg laying. It's long and sappy and I don't really expect anyone to read it, but if someone does maybe they can relate to some of the feelings I have right now. And it...

Hey everyone, I have a beardie named Liz with MBD who I've posted about many times on these forums. She's been laying clutches of eggs since December, and right now she's in the midst of trying to lay. I had my wedding last weekend, and my husband and I went on a mini vacation for a few days...

Hey. Has anyone ever dealt with getting rid of bed bugs while having a bearded dragon? Unfortunately I'm being bitten by something so I'm having someone inspect my apartment tomorrow. If they do find evidence of BBs, they will likely need to treat my apartment with a spray. Has anyone had this...

We live in a two bedroom apartment and recently had to get the floors redone in one of the bedrooms. Our apartment has the bedrooms on one side then a long hallway that links them to the kitchen and living room. Our bearded dragon stays out in the living room. We didn’t make alternate living...

Hello, Some of you may have read my posts in the past about my bearded dragon Liz who has MBD and often struggles to lay her eggs. Unfortunately she's also prone to laying many clutches of eggs (her record was 8 in a row in 2019) and it just takes such a toll on her. Right now it's been a...

So I recently got a new oven and today I turned it on without thinking about the fumes. My kitchen and living room are one big room, and my bearded dragon's tank is in the living room. After about five minutes, it really started to smell like chemicals so I shut it off and opened all the windows...

My bearded dragon Liz is very prone to laying lots of eggs--one year she laid 8 clutches back to back. She normally starts laying the spring or summer months and is done by September. However, the past few days she's been extremely restless. She won't stop running around her cage just like she...

Hey everyone! So my girl Liz has had issues with constipation in the past. We recently started giving her pureed veggies such as squash because we heard it could help her go. It seems to work and she absolutely goes wild for it! She gets as excited to eat her pureed squash as she does worms. The...

I have a bearded dragon who is trying to lay eggs at the moment. In the past we've always used sand in her lay box, but she recently got a lot of sand in her eye and we don't want to risk it again. I was wondering if someone could give me advice on what type of soil to purchase for her lay box...

My bearded dragon has eggs so we have been putting her in her lay box lately. She got some sand in her eye today and didn't want to open it so we were trying to flush it out with water. I told my husband that he could try using saline solution and I guess he misunderstood because he used contact...

Hey everyone! I recently learned about yellow fungus and of course I freaked out and was wondering if my beardie could have it. I took a peak at her stomach and this is what it looks like. As you can see, there appears to be some scales that look darker than the others. I can’t say that this...

Hey everyone. My beardie Liz is five years old and has been through a lot. She has MBD and has laid many clutches of eggs in the past. In 2019 she laid 8 clutches in a row, last year she only laid one. She started showing signs of laying about a week ago so my husband and I have been putting her...

Hey everyone! I've posted on here before about my bearded dragon Liz. Anyways, I wanted to ask about pregnancy and owning a bearded dragon. I just found out I'm pregnant and I currently live in a studio apartment with my husband and bearded dragon. We are moving in May, but for right now I'm...

Hey all, Hope everyone is staying safe. My bearded dragon Liz normally eats collard greens, but due to COVID-19 we have been relying on grocery deliveries and I have to be a bit more flexible. I was giving her some dandelion which she normally likes, but I was running low so I put some cilantro...

Hey everyone. So my bearded dragon had diarrhea today. Part of it is somewhat solid, but overall it's pretty runny (the way she pooped it out made it clear it was diarrhea) and covered in brown liquid. There is a urate that looks kind of broken apart. Part of it is white and part of it is not...

Hello. I've posted about my bearded dragon Liz here before (https://www.beardeddragon.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=248583). I took to her to the vet about a month ago because she wasn't wanting to eat vegetables (only bugs) and wasn't pooping often (every few weeks). The vet ran a blood test...

I took in my bearded dragon Liz about six months ago, after she was diagnosed with metabolic bone disease. She was living with my family before that. At the time, she was walking very strangely and crossing her arms. She also wasn't pooping very often, but I think this is because they didn't...
