    Our baby bearded dragon has not eaten or pooped since Sunday

    Hi...I am glad you were able to replace Smaug without having to tell your son. How close do you have your MVB to him? It needs to be 12" from him. You might want to soak him daily for awhile. Good luck Patsy

    Oh No. Bath--cleaner still in it--did vet advise me right?Pl

    Hi...glad your dragon is doing OK. As far as the fecal is concerned...It is rated from 0 - 4, with 4 being really bad. Usually it isn't necessary to medicate unless it is rated a 3 or more. If it is just worms, and not bacteria,protozoa, coccidia, etc, then you can flush them out without...

    Our baby bearded dragon has not eaten or pooped since Sunday

    Hi...Just wondering how your dragon is doing. Were you able to get some babyfood in him? I wouldn't be surprised if he will be better when he has the correct UVB light...no compacts nor coils and no ReptiGlo 10. The ReptiSun 10 long fluorescent tube is great, and the MegaRay or T-Rex Active...

    MY BEARDIE NEEDS HELP! SERIOUS DIARRHEA

    Hi...You can give him a rounded teaspoon of 100% pumpkin once a month. Mine lick it off the spoon. You can freeze the rest...in an ice cube tray, then put it in a baggie to thaw as needed. I would definitely stop the silkworms. Go back to just crickets and greens til he gets back to normal. I...

    New House

    I would suggest removing the hides so she has to stay where it is warm. I don't put hides in my tanks. I feel like if they are hiding they aren't getting enough UVB or heat to keep their metabolism running properly. I wouldn't stress too much if she doesn't eat for a couple days. She is still...

    New House

    Hi...You want calcium without phosphorous. Do you have a farm/feed store near you? I get chick starter there to use for feeding crickets. It is super cheap. I paid a couple dollars for a 5 lb bag last time and it will last me most of a year...I order 4-5000 every 2 weeks. Check...

    my New Beardie, King Arthur

    severe impaction dont no wat to do?

    Hi...You can use a halogen lightbulb or a regular household bulb for your heat/basking bulb. No colored bulbs. And that needs to be on one end of the enclosure right beside your ReptiSun 10 long fluorescent tube UVB bulb. The UVB needs to be replaced every 6 months cause even tho it still gives...

    Help with moving Beardie

    Hi... Pet stores carry a round disc that you put in the microwave, then wrap it in a towel for them to lay on. It stays warm for about 10 hours. If you can't find it, fill a sock with raw rice & tie the end. Warm it in the microwave. You can usually rewarm it at a quick stop or restaurant that...

    Why won't my girl shed?

    Hi...Don't stress. Some shed less often than others. And some shed only a very thin layer that you might not have noticed. Do you soak them 20 minutes up to their armpits at least every other day? With good soaks, again, you may not notice the thin sheds. Good luck Patsy

    housing beardies together?

    Hi...It is the consensus on here that no 2 dragons should be housed together, because you never know if they will fight or not. If they have not been together since hatching, definitely do not put them together, even if they are the same size. There have been numerous incidences on here of...

    thermometer for bath water

    Hi...Happy to help...been there done that!! You can let him stay in the water for about 20 minutes each time. Just make sure the water stays warm. If your house is cool, you might need to add some more water to keep it warm. Good luck Patsy

    need some help not basking alot

    Hi...It is a good chance that the UVB is what is causing the problem. I believe the Arcadia D3+12% is the UK version of our ReptiSun 10. Good luck Patsy
