    Vacation enclosure

    We're going on a week-long vacation in a few months and I have no choice but to take my ~10 month old boy Goetta with us. I've been scouring the internet for ideas on travel enclosures, but I'm seeing a lot of mixed responses. One option would be a large storage bin, which I already have one...

    Swollen toe/leg

    Goetta is about 5ish months old. He's very active, eats well, and poops well. I noticed last week he had what looked like a swollen toe. Today I was examining him after his shed and I noticed a size difference in both his back legs. At first I thought his leg was swollen so I started freaking...

    Beardie only wants to syringe feed

    I've had Goetta since November 2nd and it's been a whirlwind. He's still a lil baby and he had some pretty gnarly parasites which caused him to stop eating.

    Thinking of euthanizing my disabled beardie

    (4x2x2 enclosure, t5 UVB, temps ranging from ~80 to ~107) My girl is just shy of 2 years old. She was born with a pretty severe disability being that her legs don't work. She's never been able to walk in her life. I adopted her when she was a few months old knowing that she'd struggle but I...

    Displaced by Hurricane Ida and beardie struggling

    Some backstory on Fugu: she was a customer return to PetSmart and the people that had her managed to mess her up so bad that she's never been able to use her back legs normally. I worked there at the time and I really bonded with her so I adopted her. I'm gonna guess she was about 4 months old...
