Just curious about other people’s experiences with how much water their beardie drinks. Mine has never drank from a water bowl I doubt he understands it. I discovered recently he likes drinking water dripped on his nose so I’ve been offering him water dripped from his nose daily and I feel like...

Hello, My beardie has been holding his left eye closed on and off recently. He will open it when something gets his attention but then closes it again. Otherwise the eye looks normal, and he's fine otherwise. I have a reptisun 10 uvb HO with a regular hosehold bulb basking light and no colored...

Hi my beardie just ate a stink bug he seems ok. I was going to go get some activated charcoal just in case but what kind should I get?? I was going to do the activated charcoal parsley thing.

So my 1 year old male beardie seems to have been having the spring crazies the past few weeks. Normally he's content to just chill and bask and wander around outside a little but now he's constantly moving and wanting to be let out to run and he tires himself out by 4 pm. Is this just normal...

Quick question, is there a difference between the Arcadia desert 12% and 14% UVB tubes? Which one is better...

So Rango decided to run around on my desk and somehow got a couple streaks of black marker on him. I tried washing it off with soap and water but it didn't work. Any suggestions for beardie friendly cleaning products that may get marker off?

Hi, paranoid beardie owner here- just a quick question about semi brumination. My 1 year old has been on/off bruminating since November and a few days ago he got active and then went back to sleeping all day. Since it’s March I thought he’d be coming out of it by now? Is this normal behavior...

Past few days my beardie has been really restless at night just moving around at night and sometimes sitting up at night. I thought he was maybe being kept up by light so I made sure it was super dark in his room but no luck. Is this something to be concerned about?

So I have a common question about getting Rango to eat his veggies, he's a year and 3 months old so I know he should transition to more veggies now but he really hates his salads. I've tried adding fruit (he picks it out), dusting with bee pollen, various "salad dressings", and adding bugs but...

So I just got a solarmeter and currently my reptisun T5 HO is in a reflector about 12 inches from the basking shelf I have and for the most part the UVB in the tank is fine except directly under the UVB tube the solarmeter is reading up to like 13 which I know anything above 8 is probably not...

So I'm just paranoid but my 1.5 year old beardie lately has been acting lethargic, basically he doesn't run around and act crazy like he used to and he mostly just lazes around under his basking spot all day and falls asleep early. Weird thing is though that he still really wants to eat his bugs...

Hi I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for parasite prevention, like are there any feeders that are better than others that have lower parasites? Or are there any supplements that can help with parasite prevention? My beardie had ADV and he's totally helathy besides the fact he just...

So I've been searching for ways to make my terrarium brighter since it always seems to be too dark and I was wondering if anyone had tried this LED/UVB hood combo? T5 ReptiSun® LED UVB Terrarium Hood | Zoo Med Laboratories, Inc. Like it seems like a good way to make the tank a lot brighter but...

So I'm baking cage decor and using ammonia to clean my beardies tank to kill the coccidia, but I was wondering about my room. I let him run around the floor and on my bed and I guess theoretically he could have coccidia on him so do I need to steam clean my floor/bed as well?

So I would love to use silkworms as a staple sometimes because they are pretty healthy, however, every time I feed them to my beardie they give him diarrhea. How do people who use silkworms as a staple keep them from having diarrhea?

So my 11 mo old beardie has been treated for salmonella with ceftaz injections. And he’s been off it for a week or so now and his poops are more solid but now he’s acting totally wild/running around and not eating. He’s about 19 inches and 375g and his weight has stayed fairly stable. I have to...

We're having a heat wave in Mass right now and since it normally doesn't get that hot up here my house doesn't have AC. My viv is way to hot, I have just one 50 watt basking lamp on right now so the hot spot is a good 100 deg but the rest of the tank is still 95 deg and I can't figure out how to...

My 7 mo old had coccidia in his fecal two weeks ago, I treated with ponazuril and luckily the coccidia are gone on his current fecal. He got better for a few days and started eating again, but now he's back to being lethargic and not eating. So I did another fecal and it came back with high...

My 7 mo old has coccidia and I just finished his last dose of ponazuril a few days ago, I've been steam cleaning daily. I've also been giving him acidophilz to help as well. He is still trying to go to bed half way through the day which is unusual as he's normally a very active little guy. He...

My 7 mo old is getting treated for coccidia right now and I've been steam cleaning the cage daily and whenever he poops I try to remove it as soon as possible. My question is, sometimes he doesn't poop before I go to work and I don't remove the poop for a few hours, will this make coccidia...
