    Confusing Poop...

    My dragon is about 2 years old and all of sudden her poop has become runny and smelly(er). First thought was obviously parasites right? Wrong. Fecal test came back totally clear. She only goes around once every couple of weeks and the last two have not been solid at all. Looks like chili with no...

    Brumation?

    I have a female, 1 year/3 months old. Over the last 2 or three days she is going into her hide early at night, well before the lights go off, and going right to sleep. She is also getting up later than usual after the lights go on. She is still eating and pooping, but sleeping a lot more...

    Lethargic after laying eggs

    My beardie is just over a year old. For the last few days she has been laying 2 or 3 eggs at a time and then yesterday she laid around 20 at one time. Last night she was her usual self, but today she is pretty lethargic, not really moving from her basking spot at all. Kind of napping on and...

    Is this safe?

    I saw on a different site that shelf liners can give off fumes that are bad for dragons. I bought this at Lowes. Just wondering if it’s safe. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Duck-Solid-Grip-20-in-x-12-ft-Gray-Shelf-Liner/1003086522

    Unexpected surprise......

    So I got home yesterday after work and as I do, said hi to the kids and dogs and went to up to my daughters room to check on Rascal. She's a little over a year old. She was in her hide on the cool side, which is strange, as she doesn't spend a lot of time there. She was squirming a bit so I...

    UVB center or off to the side?

    I had the UVB light in the middle of the tank but she was never under it as her favorite basking spot was off to the side. I moved directly over her hot spot. Does it matter where the UVB fixture is? Should it be over main her basking area or was it fine in the middle?

    Yellow Fungus?

    I have turned into a bit of a beardie hypochondriac…….noticed some yellow coloring on the eyelids and on the side of her head. Could this be the dreaded yellow fungus or just normal coloring?

For the longest time big huge poops once every 4 days or so, and about 3 weeks ago she started she going everyday or two and they are a lot smaller. Sometimes the urate is the size of pencil eraser. Should I be...

    Picky Eater.....Anybody Else?

    Does anybody else have this problem? Rascal is about 10 1/2 months old and is a pain to feed. Seems like she will change her mind as to what she will eat constantly. When I first got her it was crickets because they are readily available. Did some research and switched to Dubia Roaches and that...

    UVB placement question

    I have a Arcadia t5 12% 24 uvb fixture that is positioned in the middle of the tank, but her main basking area is off to the left where the light doesn’t quite reach. Will she find the uvb when she needs it, or do I need to move the uvb?

    Vitamins and Lighting

    Kind of confused here. I have read conflicting reports on giving whether to give her D3 supplements in addition to the proper UVB lighting. Some have said the proper lighting will provide all the D3 the dragon needs, and others have stated you should do both. This is my setup. Arcadia ProT5...
