    Black sensitive scales

    So my boy Bell has had some black irregular scales for a while now. I've been told by other beardie owners that it's most likely just blemishes or beardie acne? I had hoped that they would dissappear or at least look better after a shed or two but they haven't. Recently I have noticed a couple...

    Sufficient uvb

    Hello and thank you in advance for your help. I have a 2 year old beardie named Bell. I have been using the arcadia 14% dragon 34" uvb bulb for the past few months. I realize that most most people advise putting the uvb inside the enclosure (which in this case is Dubia.com 4x2x2 pvc) and I...

    Oatmeal substrate

    So I've been keeping my roaches in a cricket keeper with oatmeal as substrate. Naturally they eat this as well as the food I give them. My question is this; is this going to cause any ill effects down the road? I know it's better to gutload your feeders with what you would want your beardie to...

    Does Shed Ease work?

    So I've recently been looking into products to help my beardie shed. Does shed ease work? The directions say to mix 10ml per 16oz of water, but what happens if you use more than that? Is it going to hurt him if it's too highly concentrated or will it just penetrate easier? Also could i mix it in...

    Non-bioactive substrate but still soil

    I recently upsized my beardies enclosure. I want to give him loose substrate without going bioactive. Can I do a sand, soil, clay mixture WITHOUT having to add isopods and other cleanup crew? Btw I'd love to add a medium sized fountain/pool in one corner but if humidity becomes an issue I'd most...

    Beardie furniture

    So I want to get my beardie some furniture. I've been thinking about cat trees specifically. Anyone have any ideas or recommendations? Right now I have a small dog bed on my dresser and its perfect height for him to sit in and look out the window. I was looking online at some wall mounted cat...

    Bindweed?

    Hi I have a a question. I've been thinking about bindweed. Apparently its edible for bearded dragons. Do you think this is something that I could use as ground cover in a viv? I dont have a bioactive setup but I would like to at some point soon. This stuff is pretty hardy. Its viney and seems to...

    Over Deworming?

    So I've been thinking about parasites. If I suspect that my bearded dragon has parasites(I know that they naturally have low levels) can I administer home treatment? Is it possible to OVER deworming a bearded dragon?. I've been looking at dewormers on amazon and would like to have some on hand...

    Zoomed Reptisun t5 HO terrarium hood 10.0

    I'm currently using the 12" version with a 10.0 bulb. Does this HAVE to be inside the vivarium? Isnt it high output so that it can sit in top? It seems made to be outside the viv as there's nothing on it to help suspend it. The screen has small rectangular holes but i wouldn't call it a fine...

    Please critic my enclosure!?!

    Hello I have had Bell for a full month now. I believe he is 2 months old as he is 9". My main question is "am I letting him get too close to his lights?" He basks here often and likes to sleep there too. (he is up on top of his hammock)
