Hi all! I have a large bin of dubia, a mix of small, medium and large. Though mostly medium to large. Probably maybe about 100? Not that much. Anyways, I’ve been trying to gutload them by providing them vegetables, greens and on the occasion small bits of fruit. But it doesn’t seem like they eat...

So, I have a maybe 3 or 4 year old female beardie (as the vet guessed) with MBD. Got her about two weeks ago now. She’s also rather underweight and maybe dehydrated too, judging by how wrinkly and dry she feels. Also is missing 4 toes, though that’s not terribly relevant I guess lol. Anyways...

Hi all! Today I’m going to be on the hunt for safe top soil so I can make a digbox for my adult beardie. I think she may be gravid. Anyways I know it needs to be non-fertilized and organic(?) but I need help just with knowing the specific ingredients or contents I guess that I should be...

Yesterday, my beardie pooped in her enclosure, and she immediately started going crazy, just restless, climbing up and down stuff. I cleaned up the poop shortly after that and she seemed to calm down. Today, she pooped a tiny bit, I cleaned it up immediately, and she still just has been going...

Hi all! I unfortunately made the mistake of giving my beardie too many bugs, and the salad she once loved she no longer wants to touch because, you guessed it, she just wants the bugs (albeit I did get her to eat a few leaves today..) frustrated with myself over it, a s I just want her to be...

Hi all! What do you guys use to put on top of your tank to keep cats off of it? Just need a temporary setup for this as the cats are just my friend's. But I want to start setting up. What is the most effective? I jsut want to avoid cats possibly knocking over the heat lamp or causing stress to...

Hey all. No surprise it’s me lol. Anyways, I noticed some minor yellow coloration on my girl. Top of her nose and a little on her arm. Didn’t see anywhere else, checked her belly and all that, seems normal. But just wanted to be sure as I’ve heard of yellow fungus, and just wanted to check if...

Hey all, it’s me (as always) searching for some advice on how I can make an enriching yet easily accessible enclosure set up for my rescue beardie. She’s got MBD, and is missing some toes. She has trouble climbing up some surfaces sometimes, though is able to get onto her flat/thick driftwood...

Forgive me for how many posts I make on here guys lol I just am so cautious about everything and want to do the best possible things for my beardie. anyways, quick backstory. She’s maybe 3-4yrs old according to the vet. Has MBD. Missing 4 toes. Was found in a Petco dumpster. So that’s why she...

Hey all!! I just recently got a rescue (maybe 3-4yrs old, has MBD) and I’ve noticed she’s got some gnarly nails. I’m looking at this one in particular though. She’s already missing 4 toes (1 from each foot)so she has trouble climbing sometimes, and I want to help her however I can, and so of...

I have a Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 UVB T5 HO Reptile Terrarium Lamp, 24-watt inside the ReptiSun 24in hood cover. Currently, it's sitting on top of my mesh lid. But I want to make sure my dragon is getting proper UVB- so was wondering if I should place the UVB inside the tank, and if so, how?? And...

Hey all! So last night I was trying to untwist a basking bulb from the lamp cover (specifically Fluker’s clamp lamp 8.5) and I was really struggling to get it off. And then suddenly instead of the bulb coming out, the whole like ceramic base at the bottom came unattached from the rest of the...

Does anyone have a photo reference of how you should set up your heat lamp(s) and UVB tube? Like positioning wise on top of the mesh, where everything goes? Like how far back or forward or etc the UVB goes, and then how far the UVB should be from the heat lamp, etc… curious and also wondering if...

Hey all! I heard halogens are more cost effective and last longer— struggling to find any in local stores though. What kind of halogen bulb would fit in a 8.5” Fluker’s lamp? Very clueless on this all lol. And where can I find them?? Links would be appreciated!

Hello all!! I am looking for a timer for the lights for my enclosure so that they will turn on for the morning and off at night automatically.

Hi all, I have a 50 gal (36 x 18 x 18) tank, and will be getting a baby beardie here soon this month. However, i am really struggling to figure out what basking/heat light(s) to get. I've just read a lot of different thoughts on the wattage, for example. I'm not sure what to do. I am thinking...
