    Ridley is doing well, eating good, and active, I've continued the syringe dropping water / proBiotic Reptophilus mix each day drops on nose and getting approx. 1ml to 2ml a day. We go back to see the vet in early January for a follow up. A small update to say thanks to you all for the help...

    Seeking Advice: Concerns about Health Findings in My Fostered Bearded Dragon, Ridley

    @AHBD Thank you. Based on the information I gathered, the vet didn't seem to have a clear idea about the nature of the mass. She didn't mention anything specific about it being a tumor. After the vet visit and the fluids he seemed himself, he's been quite active and running around a lot today...

    Good Breeders?

    @Claudiusx - My very first dragon I got him at 5 months old from Phantom Dragons phantomdragonsinc.com after reading online comments stating similar that they are reputable breeders and breed healthy dragons, and it was the main reason why I purchased from them. I had my boy's bloodwork done and...

    Weird mouth shutter behavior
