She fell from about 4-5 inches, and her name is Iccarus. The name fits well because she used to try to jump onto her lights, if they hung too low in the tank. I actually had to move them to on top of the tank because of it haha

Thank you! She hasn’t started black bearding or anything (I’ve never seen her black beard, so I would’ve noticed if she did), is that how they show they’re in pain too? I didn’t know what to look for regarding pain symptoms or anything, but she seems okay on the outside.

Hello! I was feeding iccarus this morning, she got confused thinking I had food and bit me. On reflex, I lifted my hand up and she held on and kind of fell after letting go. It was about 4-6 inches fall, and she’s been active and running around (like normal) since, and she’s been letting me pet...

Hello, I recently gave my beardie some olive oil on the nose because that’s worked in the past for impaction (think I gave too many mealworms). She shook her head to get it off, and I’ve always kind of worried about this: can it get in their nose and cause issues? It doesn’t look like it did...

Ah okay, the way my beardie does it seems random, but that makes sense that they would stop if it hurts. Thank you!

Yes, but what’s the difference between her rubbing and pulling it off and me pulling it off? Or do they naturally regulate when they pull it off?

Hello, Just start off, I’ve never “helped” my beardie shed. I’m just curious, why is it that when they’re shedding we can’t help, but they can just rip it off? For example, my beardie is doing a full body shed right now, and this morning used her claw to pull off a piece of shed from her...

I waited a bit to respond, just to see what it was. Today, she’s shedding her entire body and arms, and the pinkness seems to be gone. Probably was just the shed then! Thanks for the help!

Hello, Probably been posted before, but my beardie has some pink skin on her inside elbow. When I say pink, I mean salmon pink. I came home from the gym, she was normal before, and now it’s like this. It’s the first thing I saw when I came in, that’s how bright it is. Other side is not like...

Okay, thank you! I’ve known theyre flexible (she tends to bend her fingers in weird ways) but I had no idea they were that flexible!

Hello, Now my beardie loves sleeping in weird positions. I’m no stranger to that. But this morning just after the lights turned on and she woke up, she was just standing with her leg backwards. I touched her and she moved it back to normal instantly and hasn’t done it again, but should I be...

Okay, thank you very much. I have to wait about a week for my next paycheck to arrive and order those things (the stores around me don’t sell them), will this setup cause any issues for that amount of time?

Hello all! This is my first post after using this forum for months making sure my beardie is healthy. Her name is Iccarus, she is about 8 months old (I think?) and healthy when I brought her for a checkup to the vet (an exotic animal vet specifically). My main concern is I recently moved her...
