Thanks Karrie! I got everything moved in. Basking temp isn't quite what it should be, so I'll be running out for a stronger bulb shortly. Unfortunately, she is definitely stressed. She's now hunkered down in her hide.

Hi everyone! I just received Cookie's new tank! I am moving her from a 4ftx18inx18in Carolina Custom Cages glass enclosure to the 4ftx2ftx2ft Zen Habitats wood enclosure (pictured above). I am BEYOND excited for this upgrade and want to talk out some details with you guys! This will be a lengthy...

Thank you. She does seem fine... she’s basking currently. I’ll stop panicking and just be sure to get a decal done in case of parasites.

This morning I saw a wolf spider in my home office. I don't like to kill them, so I left it be. A few hours later, I crawled around on my hands & knees looking for it. I didn't see it anywhere and figured it moved on. So, I then let Cookie out for her runaround time. Unfortunately, she spotted...

I really like the idea of setting them up to free roam whenever! Maybe I will work on getting my office setup so she can just use that whole room as she pleases. I could block off any tight spaces and set up an extra basking light or two, and build a little ramp for her to come in and out of her...

Hi all! It's been awhile since I've posted on here. Cookie has been doing great and she is an absolute delight! One thing - she's EXTREMELY restless. She's always been pretty active. When I got her, I actually selected her because she was the only one of the group that was running and jumping...

Hi all! To get to the point, I’m wondering if Cookie will be ok without UVB for one day. More details below. We are in the middle of moving, and I’d like to bring her with me to our new house while I’m getting some things done there tomorrow. She’s been incredibly restless lately so I think...

Hi all! Despite my best efforts, Cookie will not drink from a water bowl or even from her baths. So, I've been hydrating her with a dropper (which is adorable, but not ideal). I've been considering getting a small water fountain for her tank to see if she might drink on her own from moving...

I gave her the first dose of her treatment the day before yesterday, and she already seems to feel better! She loved the meds... tasted the first drop and then tried to eat the entire syringe :lol: This morning she is very active and her colors have lightened back up. She happily chowed down...

I certainly will! They gave me Panacur and said to give her .25cc today, again 14 days from now, and then a third time 28 days from now. They will do another fecal test two weeks after the third dose. They did not give me any other information. I'm wondering if you know of any possible side...

I found out today that Cookie has pinworms. I just got back from picking her meds up from the vet, and now I’m wondering what I can use to disinfect her tank while she’s being treated. I plan to remove everything from her enclosure and soak all furnishings, and also replace her reptile carpet...

Hi! Thank you for your reply. After I posted this, I gave her a bath, which she defecated in and the swelling was immediately gone and has not returned since. However, my vet just called me about 15 minutes ago to let me know her fecal sample came back with pinworms. I'm going back there in a...

Hi everyone. I took Cookie for her first vet visit the other day, just for a checkup. I drove an hour to a reputable exotics vet. To my delight, he said she looks perfectly healthy! He asked me questions about my setup and how I feed her, and he said everything sounded perfect and that he could...

Hello all, I'm looking for information regarding what a healthy weight range would be based on length. Does something like this exist somewhere? I'm having a hard time because everything I find seems to vary wildly. I suppose it depends on the individual dragon? I just want to make sure my...

Yeah, I definitely like the idea of a mesh carrier. Not sure why it hadn’t occurred to me before posting this. When she gets hyper she will definitely squeeze herself into some funky spaces! I do hope she will enjoy the new views on the trip though!

Thank you!!! I actually did some more reading and saw that many people like to bring them along in mesh pet carriers for the car ride. I think I may do that just for safety (in case she decided to get crazy and try to wedge herself under the car seat or something). I had considered bringing a...

Hi everyone! 4th of July is three weeks away, and every year our family heads to the beach for a few days for fireworks and family time. This year, however, I have Cookie. We'll be at our beach house for 5 days, so I cannot leave her alone. My nephew (a fellow BD owner) usually feeds her/keeps...
