So my beardies favorite form of enrichment is looking out the window but sometimes I have 12 hr work shifts so I can't let him out to explore as much as I'd like. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for cage enrichment for when I'm gone?

Hello, I have a 1.5 year old male beardie and he's always been a lazy boy who refuses to eat much salad so I wanted to get some feedback on my viv to see if anyone had any suggestions to see if there may be something bothering him or to make him more active. It's a 4x2x2 zen with an Arcadia...

So I posted here yesterday because I took my beardie to the vet yesterday for a wellness exam and he was fine, then he started blackbearding and acting funny. As of now he looks even worse, black beard closed eyes that are sunken in, won't eat anything. I attached the bloodwork from yesterday...

So I took my beardie to the vet today for a wellness exam and bloodwork and he was fine. I think maybe he was a little overstimulated though, when I brought him back home he was fine for a while then suddenly while basking he started gaping and blackbearding and freaking out. I put him in his...

My 1 year old beardie has been spending more time hiding lately, in the morning he'll go straight to his hide and falls asleep early. I plop him back in his basking spot and he'll stay there for a while normally. Besides that he's eating and pooping normally. He should be done bruminating at...

Hello, my 1year old beardie has been having hard urates lately, sometimes reddish colored. His poops are otherwise ok, he goes about once a week. He's in a 4x2x2 enclosure with hot side at 105F, and cool side at 80F. He has a reptisun 10.0 UVB HO mounted 12 inches from the basking spot inside...

My 1.5 year old beardie has been semi bruminating since November and I thought he was starting to come out of it but he's gone back to going to bed at noon again. I live up north so the sun still sets pretty early this time of year so I was wondering if anyone else had beardies that bruminate...

I’m pretty sure my 1 year old beardie is semi bruminating right now he’s lazier than usual just basking in one spot all day and falling asleep earlier. He’s still eating his bugs but is not big on his salad. He’s been having some trouble with undigested poops and having fewer poops. He used to...

so I did a fecal float on my beardies stool since I treated him for coccidia about a month ago and he's still having some red/hard urates although the rest of his poop is well formed. I attached the image of a few small circular things I saw under the microscope, not sure if they are coccidia or...

My beardie is 1 year old, he's 19.5 inches and around 400 grams. I've had issues with him since I got him with coccidia and salmonella. Unfortunately I got him tested for ADV and he came back positive despite the fact I got him from a good breeder. Anyone who has had beardies with ADV have any...

Hello- So I don't keep a dubia colony or anything, I just have a bin with egg cartons I keep them in when I order a few hundred at a time. I feed them left over salad greens since my beardie is not the best about eating salad. They get moldy in like two days, I keep having to clean the box out...

So I have an 11 mo old beardie who more recently seems to be a lot more chill than I'm used to. Like as a juvenile he would run around the viv a bunch but now a days he has no interest in leaving his viv and he just lays in the basking spot nearly all day. He still eats and poops normally. He...

Hi I just have a few quick questions I was hoping to get some advice on 1. My beardie is about to turn 1 and I know they don't stop fully growing until 1.5 so I'm assuming I should continue feeding him feeders 2x a day dusted with Ca 5x/week and multivitamin 2x/week until he's 1.5? Just want to...

During the daytime I've been using a t5 HO reptisun 12 in from the basking spot and a 75watt zoo med basking bulb. I'm having to dim the 75 watt basking bulb a lot to get the right temps so I'm worried the tank isn't bright enough. I've never tried just using a regular household bulb/flood light...

Hi- So I have a 9 month old beardie and I just wanted to check and see if his behavior is normal. Some days he runs around a bit and is a little crazy and then other days he just lays in his basking spot all day and goes to sleep early. Is this usual behavior for a juvenile? Just trying to...

My 9 mo old beardie had pinworms and was treated with panacur. He's still having diarrhea two weeks later, is this just do to the panacur still? Should I give it more time before rechecking a fecal? Viv info: 4x2x2, reptisun 10.0 HO T5 in the viv 12 in from basking spot, hot spot 103 cold spot 85
