    Overfeeding? Worried about Stunt in Growth

    Agree w/ last post-er. Lay off the meal worms as much as possible. not a good source of nutrition and can cause blockage from too much shell etc. And definitely needs to be eating the smaller crickets that are no bigger then space between eyes. I have had the legs from larger ones cause me...

I have two little Dragons out of my clutch of 14 that would hardly eat at all. a cricket once in a while,then wouldn't eat those at all after a while. as calci/phoenix worms were in short supply at the time, I did resort to the meals as it was...

    Food Problems

    Why can't you order online? OR do you know some one who could order for you? They need protein. I've never tried to get them a protein source from veggies. Beans of course are protein, not green beans but . Do some searching online for nutritional values of legumes. Soy beans are high...

    changing diets?

    we also feed chard, especially Dandelion greens since they are good for them anyway, Arugula. I don't worry about leftover greens because we try to eat healthy and that is a regular part of a healthy diet anyway, so we just share all the nice organic exotic greens we get w/ the beardies. My...

    Odd pooping

    Our beardie, Tang (female, almost 2 years old), has had some runny poop the last day or two. She pooped on one of us this evening, and she hadn't been fed for like HOURS... 11 or 12 hours or so even. Usually she poops right after eating. Ok, it was runny, but looked like undigested salad in it...

    how often can they lay eggs

    it seems like getting her spayed is pretty pricy? But once she gets past the 3 to 6 layings, shouldn't she be done? I also see how it wears My female down some (Tang) But then again You can really see the cycle after the first couple times. The obvious digging , but also the day or two just...

    Two Questions

    i will say i read and heard many horror stories about the damage the male can do to the female during the mating attempts. that kept me from letting them get together for quite a while as she is a very pretty tangerine beardy, who cost me more then a regular and I am quite fond of her, so I...

    Two Questions

    Our beardies didn't bruminate at all and they were happy to mate. It also seems like it doesn't take them very long to "do the deed". They probably have mated and you just didn't notice unless you were watching the whole time (don't even leave them for 5 min.)

    Nonviable Eggs after first laying

    Our beardie, Tang, was breed for the first time this year. Her first clutch gave us 18 nice egg looking eggs. 14 ended up hatching and all the babies are great. Every other clutch she has had the eggs look funny. They aren't egg shaped, they are more cylindrical and some are yellowish. Why? Is...
