I made a post a few weeks back about how Dovah would only eat his proteins with tongs. This is still true. He will pick at his veggies if you don't tong feed them. Well, work has changed, and I simply don't have time to tong feed him. I really need help breaking this habit. Please, this has...

I'm positive that all of you know how stubborn a beardie can be. I have made several posts about my boy, Dovah, and his unwillingness to eat anything. After vet trips, different feeders, different techniques, and just shy of 8 months having him, I finally have realized why he is such a stubborn...

I've had Dovah since November. He was born sometime in September of 2018, so he's an adult now. He is an extremely picky eater, and he hates a LOT of things. He doesn't like bee pollen granules (can't find the powder, but that might be my next experiment), doesn't like mustard greens, doesn't...

My boy seems to avoid the color red on foods. Now, im not concerned about this. I'm just curious if anyone else has seen this? He goes out of his way to avoid red foods lol

This sort of goes along side my previous post, "Vegetarian beardie?" where I asked if 4-5 dubias is enough per week for my 1 year 5 month old boy. He looks at them, but doesn't seem to have much interest. I have offered phoenix worms, butter worms, and hornworms in the past. He only seemed to...

Dovah has been super happy for the past two and a half months! He's a super sweet boy, thanks to hydrotherapy. I've been having to force-feed water every once in a while, no big deal. My question is this- he's nearly an adult (1 year, 5 months). However, whenever I offer him any dubias (the...

I woke up to a burnt out bulb that I've had for less than two months :banghead: . Thankfully, I had some spare halogen lights. They'll last until my new bulb comes in. Also couldn't get my enclosure to lock for a solid 5 minutes :twisted: Finally I was able to wiggle it in place. DIY's aren't...

I have no doubt that Dovahh is in brumation. It's that time of the year, he's sluggish, and spends most of his day sleeping on the cool side of his tank (ranges from about 75-73 degrees most of the time). I am a new owner, and I've never had an animal go through any form or hibernation/...

I'm planning on making the switch to bioactive for my ball python, Bendy. Does anyone have any opinions on Josh's frogs products? Specifically plants, ABG mix, drainage layers, and their bioactive kits? I know the BioDude is very popular and well known, but if I can save almost 1/2 as much...

Dovahh celebrated his 3 weeks home by leaving me a large stinky present :lol: . I finally got in those Dubias, and decided to go ahead and give him a few. Well one escaped me, ran off of my tongs, and into Dovahh's cage. I've never seen Dovahh run so quickly! He was quite the happy boy. This...

Today marks Dovahh's second week home with me. I very quickly learned that gut loading BSFL is making my entire basement smell, so I'm going to switch to dubias. In total, he has eaten maybe a cup of greens and maybe 15 BSFL, 2 hornworms, and 2 superworms. On just about the first week mark, he...

I'm not familiar with reptile nails in general, and Dovahh is my first and only beardie/ reptile with nails. I recently got him a week ago, and last night, I tried to cut his nails because they're very long. A few of them started to curl under his feet! I tried to cut them, but the quick...

Dovahh was on a diet of Dubia roaches with his previous owner. After a while of talking, my mom is going to allow me to get dubias for him! With dovahh being my only lizard, I'm not quite sure if breeding will truly be worth it, especially since he is a juvenile. He is showing signs of...

First off, sorry if this is the wrong section! Today marks Dovahh's first week home. He turned one this September, and as the US midwest slips into winter, I believe he is showing signs of brumation. I have no fecal sample to have tested, he hasn't really eaten much, maybe 1/2 a cup of salad and...

In general, does anyone prefer to dust their salads or their insects for juvenile/ adults?

I did a quick search on the site and didn't quite find what I'm looking for, but forgive me if this has already been answered. I think I may have killed my insects :banghead: they were in a mini fridge, but I forgot to change the temp. His insects don't smell, so they might just be hibernating...

This question is about the same bearded dragon referred to my first post, New Baby. He arrived today via FedEx. All was well, however, he did soil himself in the bag. I did what I could to give him a warm bath to clean up, but the poor little guy was panicking. I dried him off and put him in his...

Hi! This is my first post, but I've been reading posts on this site for a while now. Today I got my baby, Dovahh. By "baby," I mean he was born last September! He is in a DIY cage my grandfather and I built. The dimensions are unusual- but we were able to work with free materials! He is in a 38"...
