Holly, I was very saddened after reading the news about your...

    ...right into the toilet

    Some of you people will know from reading here the bad luck i have been having with the dragons i have attempted to befriend. First there was Pete that died from a self induced crash diet, then there was Stuart, that unfortunately was taken by a hawk from my back yard. After a short time to...

    STUART TAKEN BY HAWK

    It was a beautiful sunny warm day this morning and i went outside to have my coffee on the backyard deck and decided to take my dragon with me to enjoy some natural sunlight. My backyard backs onto 20 acres of woodland and the deck is mostly open to allow maximum sun. I put Stuart in his little...

    keeping odour in check

    My dragon is alone most of the day till i get home from work at 3:00p.m. and she has at least one dump that is usually fermenting in her enclosure. Opening the glass door to clean it up usually triggers a gag reflex in me and i'm sure she is trying to contain herself from bursting out laughing...

    stuart

    Stuart passed the head this afternoon and seems to be fine. Maybe i should pull all his teeth out and puree all his food from now on.....i could call him "Gumby"

    update on Stuart

    I came home from work today and she seemed to be fine. She had a poop ,but, i am not sure if it was the remains of the babies' head. She swallowed the head rather fast so i am assuming that it went to her stomach in one piece. I will keep checking for the next few days till i am sure she is...

    hic-ups

    My 5 month old female has had hic-ups now for the better part of the day. She will hic-up about 3 times a minute. She is not eating but has had a poop today and seems to be alert to her surroundings. Any thoughts?

    He did not make it

    Just a short update about the issue i was having with my dragon the past 3 weeks. If you read my post about "now i just wait till he dies i suppose", in the ER section, it will fill you in with the problem. Although i tried everything to help this little guy he just did not want to eat. He died...

    now i just wait till he dies i suppose

    It's day 17 now with no food. He just sits and basks most of the day, drinks a bit. All his needs are up to specs. I had him to 2 vets and both said he was fine, fecal was fine also. Not much else i can do.

    vet says he is ok

    but.......it has been 14 days now since this new BD has eaten anything. He is about 6-7 weeks old and has not grown at all. All of the required specs. are up to snuff and i am running out of ideas of what to tempt him with as far as food goes. I even warmed up his baby food with water and...

    1 week

    Update on my 5" long nameless dragon. It is becoming very active and alert and when i come home from work it catches sight of me and starts to do a few "donuts" in this viv. It is then that he gets his salad, he gets all excited till he sees what it is then goes back to basking. He still is not...

    "bum shuffle"

    I also gotta ask this , the new dragon is standing on my chest looking at me and lowers itself so it's belly is resting on me. It looks content and it's eyes start to close. I pet it from snout to the base of the tail and it's almost lights out. Just before total zzzzzzz's it does this "bum...

    maybe i spoke too soon?

    A few days ago i was singing the praises of my newly acclaimed dragon, how i did not have any of the problems some members here have. It was a case of him/her fitting right in to the new environment. The dragon is about 5" in length including the tail and on it's second day it was right at home...

    did i luck out?

    Finished the enclosure on Monday of this week and went out today to pick up my dragon. This morning it was -15F where i am and i was more than a little concerned that this youngster would freeze to death before it even made it to it's new digs. I have been reading a lot of posts here about the...

    basking angle

    Not sure if this question belongs here or in enclosures but, i see a lot of pictures here in which the dragon is basking on it's tree or rock and the said basking area is on an angle. I would say the majority i have seen are set up this way with a few basking pods that are set up horizontal. Is...

    $527.96 and counting

    I have asked a lot questions here about the ways of the dragon, some of them rather out in left field, and with the research and info i have gleaned i have decided to get a dragon. This past week i have been on holidays and have started building the enclosure. I have decided to make this palace...

    the clutch runt

    After much reading and asking questions here on this forum i finally took the time to visit a privately owned exotic pet store in my area. I talked with the owner about some 3 month old dragons she was offering for sale and she mentioned that the enclosure i was looking at contained dragons that...

    voice recognition

    Is me again with another question to ponder. This time, i wonder if the dragon can recognize different tones in the speech of it's owner.If the owner is pleased with the dragon and a soothing tone is directed to it , or, if the owner uses a different tone, such as, being stern with it, balling...

    freezer burn

    I watched a video lately about a dragon crawling down a man's arm right into the open freezer door of his kitchen refrigerator. He allowed it to climb right onto the frozen boxes of food. The dragon continued to crawl right to the back of freezer and sit there. You could see the frost on the...
