    Yellow seepage on back

    I have a 6 year old male bearded dragon. His tank has a tile floor, Repti Sun UV light and basking light and rocks. It's the same enclosure his entire life. He is in shed mode. There's a section of shed on his back where's there's a yellowish goo. I've given him a bath to try to help the...

    When to change food quantity based upon age?

    Our BD is 13 months +/-. He didn't grow for 4 months (was stuck at 12" until Christmas). I switched his crickets to the next bigger size in late Jan. and he's grown a little over 4" since Christmas and is now about 16.5". How old are they when they usually stop growing? I've had read that...

    Leapin Lizard

    I see all these stories of dragons loving their baths. Not so with Norbert. He will marginally stand still for a few minutes, then jumps at the side of the bathtub. Twelve months later, he still hates them. He's been having a few more baths lately, which he hates, because he's been dragging...

    Cleaning a beardies tail

    Norbert sometimes poops and drags his tail through it. I can tell when this happens because the poop is spread out over his viv. Fortunately it's tile, so easy to clean up. I put him in the tub when I know this has occurred to clean off his tail. It seems like some of it won't come clean and...

    Black bearding and shedding

    Our beardie is about 9 months old. He's finally started shedding again after not have had a major one in about 4 months. He's been in an almost continual state of shed for about 3 weeks. His tail and legs are on their third shed. Since this started he's black bearding several times a day...

    Private Messaging

    I'm rather new to the whole PM'ing thing and not sure if I've done it right. I sent a response back to a PM I received, but it shows it sitting in the outbox. When I sent it, it said that it was sent. However, there is nothing in the "sent" folder. I can't see any settings that might be...

    Accurite Temp Gauge

    I have one of these thermometers on Norberts basking spot. Naturally, he's decided to poop on it several times. It will no longer stick to the basking spot. I've tried 2 sided carpet tape, and it holds for maybe a day. Has anyone had this problem and solved it? I really don't want to keep...

    Really, really stressed dragon

    Our beardie is almost continually hiding. He had been very outgoing until early September. Then he started hiding more often in his log. Last week the house alarm accidently was set off and apparantly rang for 5-10 minutes before the alarm company turned it off. The same day the dishwasher...

    Weird sleeping habits

    My 6.5 month old beardie likes to sleep in weird positions (at least to me). He's slept in the vertical position hanging on his bricks. I thought that was strange, but at least his body was straight. I thought when he burrowed into his blanket it was cute. My daughter thought he'd gotten out...

    NORBERT PICTURES

    I introduced Norbert a few weeks ago but have finally figured out how to post the pictures. Hit preview and wallah! I'm just a stupid engineer who's great at Autocad and other things, but apparantly need to learn a lot about the web and photos. I'm getting there. So if this works, here he...

    NORBERT HAS ARRIVED

    We picked up our beardie a week ago Sunday. He moved out of temporary housing into his new habitat this evening. This is our first lizard. He's around 8 weeks old. Our only other pet is a goldfish, which isn't very interesting. We kept the class dragon over Christmas and decided a dragon...
