This morning she's doing 100% better. Her beard is normally colored, along with her feet and most of her tail. She moved off the blanket she was sleeping on and is resting her front legs on a log under her basking spot. Normally she would get either some crickets or superworms - should we...

We gently picked her up and gave her a nice bath. She raised her head and moved her legs just a little bit. Much more hopeful than I was a short time ago. I am feeling more confident on her recovery. Thank you for the help

Thanks for the quick reply. It was not a far fall the top of her rock perch is only about 16 inches and her weight pushed it out from the back of her viv and she slid head first and was wedged behind the rock and between the rock and the back wall of the viv. There was some blood from her nose...

Sub Adult dragon slid head first down between wooden viv wall and a Grout covered Styrofoam rock? When I pulled her out she looked as if she was bleeding from her nose slightly. Her beard and front feet were slightly blackened. I don;t know how long she was head down vertical but I did not see...

I have heard rumors that it is illegal to import roaches to Florida? Is this true, anyone in Florida raise their own feeders. I am getting tired of stinky crickets...

I almost have an enclosure finished for my dragon. I am in florida so night time heat is not a worry. I just loaded some pictures but I will try to describe? I have a 2'x4'x3' tall box. In the top of the box I wired one outdoor electrical box with the directional arms for flood lights, and on...

I was under the impression that dragons liked and needed to thermoregulate? Move from hot to cool high uv to low. I thought this went for heat and light and uv as well.

Thanks for the information. I have the self ballasted Mega ray 100 watt, and I will be sealing the interior of the viv and building a fake rock basking perch at 12-14 inches away from the bulb. Petunia is only 8 weeks old now and will be in her new home soon.

Have the new enclosures built for our dragons (three) ready to go with MVB. I have been getting crossed signals if I should continue to supplement with D3 when the dragons go into their new homes with MVB lighting. One source stated no more D3 and another stated that you need to supplement D3...

Does anyone know a good place to find really nice beardie and Chameleon christmas ornament?

I have been washing with warm soapy water, rinsing then spraying with Nolvasan. It is a cleaner that is used to disinfect and sanitize vet's offices. I got a 1 quart bottle at Tractor Supply (farm supply store) for about 20 bucks and you mix three ounces to a gallon of water. It smells nice too...

This is not really a DIY but I thought I would share. When my wife first got her Panther Cham we had a difficult time collecting crickets. I went to wal*mart and purchased a small handheld vacuum. We use this exclusively for crickets, vacuums up exactly how many you need! I call it the Cricket...

That is my worry. I was planning on a 4' x2' x30" enclosure. With multiple basking spots, and multiple hiding spots. They are small now and in a 40 together i guess we will see if they stay friends? THanks for the information.

Recently my wife and I each purchased a female dragon. We both got females because we thought it would be easier to raise two females together. Two questions. 1 Should we keep them together in the same enclosure? 2 if so what size would you recommend for that enclosure?

Well, currently my biggest problem is after I put crickets into the cage. They seem to hole up in the very fancy and expensive drift wood logs I purchased at the local pet store and then come out late at night when everyone is a sleep. Do I need to find different backing spots or is there some...

Thanks for the quick reply. I just built the stand for the tank that they are in now and researching plans for how we will build their permanent homes. I will most likely be starting on the first one in the next few weeks and ill do my best to get them done ASAP. They belong to me, my wife...

My biggest concern would be reaching at least 145 degrees for a few seconds this is the temperature at which Salmonella is killed.
