So I brought our BD on front porch to sit in sun and was reading when the next thing I know he hops off my lap, runs to corner, and next thing I know he’s crunching on something. When I told my husband he said you know the exterminator was here yesterday so that could have been a dead/dying...

Thank you. Yes - that’s partly how I figured out it may be dehydration because the urate started turning partially orangish-brown and I read that was what caused it. The white part has been getting less and less since then so I’m hoping we caught this in time. We did try dubias once before and...

So I posted a couple of weeks ago about our BD who seemed to possibly be going through relocation stress from upgrading the enclosure. Well whether or not it was the new tank that caused the lethargy and other symptoms, we’ve been told after bloodwork that she is dehydrated. So...these are the...

Ignore the dome light on back left side - that one's empty, and we only use one side of the dual fixture on the right (to house the mercury vapor bulb). The left side is the long UVB tube light - is it okay that it sits on top of the wire or could that be the issue??

So an update (and hopefully a photo of it works). Took her to vet this afternoon with stool sample. Negative for parasites. Don’t know if I’d already mentioned this but we had noticed some twitching on her abdomen, and I mentioned that to the vet. He said possibly this is due to pain? So anyway...

So I can’t figure out how to post a picture. But we did replace bulb with just a regular 100-watt lightbulb and it didn’t seem to make any difference. He hid all day today and most of yesterday. If he won’t poop tomorrow to take sample to vet how can they test it for parasites? We took a sample...

So my son upgraded his dragon to a 75-gallon tank about 2 weeks ago, and ever since then for the most part we have been dealing with his dragon hiding in his rock and basically having to drag him out for basking. The only things changed are obviously the larger tank (although it’s on a lower...

Great - thank you for sharing

They’re both on top because we couldn’t figure out a way to mount inside - but we cut holes in the screen to allow the heat and uvb to get through (know that’s weird but it’s worked so far). Am hoping to figure out another way with new tank but not sure how. It’s a pain dealing with hinged lid...

Right now in our 40-gallon tank we have a 100-watt mercury vapor bulb (MVB) in a dome fixture as well as a ZooMed ReptiSun 10.0 UVB T5HO tube light (22” long). Can we make these work in a 75-gallon tank? If not will we need to get rid of these fixtures and get new or maybe just change out...

It’s a ZooMed Reptisun T5 HO 24-watt 10.0 UVB tube light...I’ll try to upload a picture.

Okay - that makes me feel better. At least I do know better than to pick at it ? Thanks so much!

But it’s already been like 2 weeks - is it okay to stay like that as long as it takes I guess??

Thanks. He’s she’s before but it never seemed to take as long as this has. At what point should I get worried it’s not coming loose fast enough??

Got it - thanks!

So my son’s bearded dragon started looking a little lighter colored on his head a couple of weeks ago, and he wanted to sleep in his cave more during the day, plus he looked a little grumpy. He finally shed some on his chin/under his mouth, but the top of his head continues to just be discolored...
