    Thank you so much for this reply! i have watched lots of videos about getting parasite testing done and everyone said it ranged from 40-80 dollars depending on the vet and when they told me it was gonna be $125 for a fecal, i was shocked. we of course did it anyways because we thought for sure...

    also just a side note, he recently got a new basking rock we thought maybe he's not basking cause they hammock scares him/feels unstable so we got a basking rock with a built in hide, ever since we got it he hides all day in the little cave, could it be brumation??

    Hi, no Adv Testing, all the tests they want to run is gonna cost us money we don’t have right now and unfortunately we were only able to pay for an emergency vet visit and the fecal exam which somehow ran us $125 dollars just for the fecal. which seems much higher than the 70-80 it usually is...

    Beardie wont bask for long

    okay, i'll try to lower... do you think maybe he just doesnt like the basking spot? when we first got him he would crawl onto the branch all the time, but since putting the hammock in to try and get him within the 8 inches he just stays away

    Beardie wont bask for long

    I guess im a little confused here as the thermometer attached to the inside of the tank does have a probe on it, i've looked up digital probe thermometers and mine definitley has a probe. I also know that temp guns are very commonly used by most people who keep bearded dragons to check temps on...
