Hey all! Meeko and I have been visiting his grandparents (my parents lol) and my Dad picked up a bearded dragon food sampler pack from the pet store as a treat. There’s pellets and canned mealworms that I know he can’t have much of, but there’s also a ZooMed Tropical Fruit Mix In in Papaya...

Hi all. I sadly had to have my Beardie, Hades, euthanized. He was only 4 months old but was very sickly during his life. From constant impaction that resulted in paralysis of his back legs, to a respiratory infection that wouldnt go away to gout. He was a PetSmart lizard. I decided it was best...

Hi all. Hades was badly impacted for the past two weeks and was dragging his back legs. So I finally took him to the vet about two days ago. She gave him an enema and he ended up pooping a huge amount. She recommended soft worms such as butterworms, waxworms and hornworms for the next little...

Hi all! Hades has been impacted for two-ish weeks now so I finally took him to the vet today. No amount of warm baths, apple sauce, or olive oil was working for me. The vet was very experienced with beardies and gave him a warm bath and then opted for a mineral oil enema (I know the controversy...

Hi guys! Hades has been dragging his back legs which are clearly about to shed. He has been fine up until this point and has been eating, pooping, etc. Regularly. He’s in a 40 gal with a 150 watt basking bulb and a T8 10.0 ReptiSun UVB mounted underneath his viv lid. The bulb isn’t even a month...

Hi everyone! I’ve had Hades since the beginning of July and everything has gone well! I bought him from PetSmart (I know) before I knew better and he eats really well. Dandelion greens, butternut squash, crickets, and occasional mealworms. The crix are dusted in calcium multiple times per week...

Hey guys! Hades just got over an injury and I was looking at his legs. Do they look swollen to any of you or am I just freaking out? Excuse his shedding. Always super worried about gout.

Hi guys! Yesterday I got home and Hades (~3 months old) was limping and refusing to put weight on his back leg. I took him to the vet today as he was limping. X-rays show no fracture and he was given a shot of metacam. He was given 5 more doses to take for the next 5 days. His appetite upon...
