Oh wow! Thats good to know about chives. I just looked at Beautiful Dragons and saw the potential toxicity warning for onions. No kidding about dill being tasty. If I can ever get mine to grow, I might just eat it all myself :) I think I will try that basil idea. Do they ever tip the plant...

Oh basil, thats a really good idea! Do they just tear off a piece when they want to eat it? I have some oregano, dill, and chives growing right now in the window. Maybe I can try giving them some of those when the plants are big enough :) I think wheat grass may be the "pet grass" they sell...

hey guys. I recently bought a small planter of wheat grass from my local farmers market, cost be about 2 dollars. So far my beardies really like it as an occasional addition, and its supposed to be really healthy for them and humans (I tried some, and not surprisingly, it tasted like grass!)...

Thanks guys! I fed him some today, and he seemed to like it.

Are brussel sprouts ok to feed occasionally to your beardie? I didn't see them on the beautiful dragons nutrition content page. http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/Nutrition.html I know they are related to cabbage, so they're probably fine, but I just wanted to make sure. My little one...

Just a remark on having a baby in a big cage. I have mine in a large cage, and he doesn't have a problem with it. I actually expected him to have a few days of adjustment period after moving from a 10 gallon into what is about 100 gallon (its fairly tall), but he got used to it almost right...

Thanks guys! It turns out there was food in there, but I didn't order the cups. I guess they give them enough to last for a little while. Now if I can only get my baby beardie to eat them :x He is much more interested in crickets....

Hello all! I ordered some silkworms from Mulberry farms last week, and they are coming in the mail today. I just realized that I didn't order any silkworm chow or food with them (I know, duh!) I don't know if they will last the time it will take for me to order food from Mulberry farms...

Yea, my little guy is awfully chubby too :) I wouldn't feed him romaine, it doesn't have enough nutritional value, but collard greens are good :) My vet told me that the more variety you can give them, the healthier they will be. I usually do some kind of greens with veggies (shredded...

Haha thats hilarious :lol: Brak always gives me a pissed sideways look when he is in his bath. They are funny guys :) Thats great that your dog is so good with your reptiles! It sounds like he could almost be a babysitter :) Seems like a really good dog to have with other pets. My cats...

Awww, she looks really happy :blob5: :blob8:

Thanks for the responses! I think I will wait a few months and introduce them (through the glass) and see how that goes. If it goes ok, I may do an outside introduction with them both on leashes and my husband handy. I guess I will just have to wait and see on that one. I am hoping eventually...

Well for one thing, it kind of sucks just being able to have one of them out at a time. I work a lot, and I try to take them both out a lot, especially the little one (I am trying to get him more socialized), but I feel like I don't give them enough time. I am not planning to introduce them...

Hello all! I got a new baby a few weeks ago, his name is Odin. My other beardie- Brak, I have had for about 2 years. Brak is a very good beardie, he is pretty mellow and even lets the cats sniff him and lay next to him (to a certain extent lol). He is about 21 inches long. The new baby, is just...

No problem :D I am just passing on info others gave to me. It's hard if you go just by what people say at petstores, although you are lucky to have one of the better ones near you. Make sure you take the crickets out of her tank at night, the not only keep her up, but they will nibble at...

Your UV light should have the type written on it, can you check? A lot of the UV lights they sell in petstores arent very good. The best type of tube light is ReptiSun 10.0. You could also look into getting a Mercury vapor bulb when you get a larger tank (you need a 40 gallon or larger, because...

Congratulations on the new beardie! :blob5: :blob5: Just a few suggestions: That is good that her tank situation is temporary, the tank should be at least 40 gallons for an adult. I would look on craigslist, or build your own if you are strapped for cash. I got both of my tanks on...

I am not sure, it's not on http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/Nutrition.html It seems like it would be too hard for them to eat. I would definitely not do it unless you know for sure its safe. Maybe email someone at beautiful dragons?

You say its your last chance with premium crickets? What happened before? I order from them all the time because I am in Georgia, and usually my shipment is there the next day. I have had (mostly) good experience with them, although I did get a weird bug in with an order one time. Also, I think...

If you do keep feeding them in their own cage, I would recommend you stay with crickets that are a good amount below the largest size that they can eat (like you seem to be doing now). That way there is less of a chance that they will do major damage if you miss them (but I know you will do your...
