    Is my dragon saying goodbye?

    I apparently have confused light bulb types in regard to this forum's regular dialect. I thought coil meant incandescent lights. Like my combo heat and UV light for my Uromastyx is "coil" - "a coiled wire that heats up and produces light", and a coating on the bulb to generate UV light. The...

    Is my dragon saying goodbye?

    I would have to remove the screen which keeps the cats out to lower that light. I don't think I can do that. Can you give me an idea of how much the UVB light is killed by going through a 1x1mm mesh? I would like to understand the math. Thank you.

    Is my dragon saying goodbye?

    @KarrieRee As I mentioned before, the male died of unknown reasons. Seemed fine one day, dead the next. I will look in to lighting. @xp29 I understand, might find something mushy and tasty to put in her lip/gums and see how she responds. And yes, I try and give her cuddles and attention as I...

    Is my dragon saying goodbye?

    Thank you for the responses, I'll try to answer all those questions in one post. Feeding: I leave greens in her enclosure and try to hand feed her a leaf each time and worms once a week. She has never had a problem hand feeding or from a dish. I have not tried syringe feeding, I feel force...

    Is my dragon saying goodbye?

    So I have/had two dragons, this is our story: The first dragon I got was a baby male captive-bred and I had it for around 1 year or so before someone asked me to take on their adult female beardy because they were moving. She was a lone captive-bred beardy around 6-7 years old. I kept them...
