    No poop for either of them :( :(

    I just moved my bearded dragons into a new environment, but neither of them have pooped at all for the 5 days they have been there! Ive rubbed both of their bellies and in the larger one I can feel a large hard lump at the bottom of their belly... but he is still eating fine, his crickets and...

    Beardie troubles :( not eating, due to housing?

    Hello I brought 2 bearded dragons about 4 months ago, and was told by this awful petshop that they were both girls. The petshop is awful for many other reasons, and their complete lack of good advice and even general knowledge on bearded dragons. Im pretty confident I have a good setup for the...

    bathing my beardie

    water should be warm but not hot. test it with your wrist to see the temp. water up to their front shoulders, head not in water. put a washcloth on the bottom of the bath or bowl you are using so he can grip onto it. for about 15 minutes. it takes a while for them to get used to it but its very...

    Something is wrong with my Beardie

    Tubes are really easy to fit anywhere, even on the side of your tank! How big is your viv? Tubes are really the ONLY way to go, more specifically, ReptiSun tubes are. Your beardies refusal to open his eyes is a way of showing you that he is suffering. It could be an over exposure to dangerous...

    bearded acting weird after he ate kale!

    Is the lump hard or soft? Is is poking out of his belly or on his skin/anywhere else? Kale is safe for dragons. He may have just eating too much at once and have his belly poking out because he is full, my baby gets this sometimes, is usually nothing to worry about. If its passed in about 2 days...

    Advice?!

    They do indeed have hides, I had to buy a new one for the new enclosure because they both used to share one in their old enclosure. (I did buy two, as well as having two separate basking areas, but they always used to sleep/bask next to eachother, so I had to buy a larger one for them to share...

    Advice?!

    Hi all, im just wondering if there is a problem with my dragons. I have 2 females, both about a year old, and were housed together and growing fine until I decided to separate them recently. I share this 'soupdragon' account with my sister Liz and my cousin, who decided to create an account...

    Cranky while shedding?

    Both my 3 month old beardies are shedding, and everytime I try to pick them up to give them a soak they are having none of it. Keep running away, and act cranky. They sometimes do this at other times too. Just refuse to be handled, run away and hide under a tree. Ive only had them for about 3...

    spike is sick

    Hello! Everyone on here is here to help, but can you help us by answering some important questions? What UVB light do you use? Flourescent tube, coil or compact? What brand is it? How close can the dragon get to the UVB? Is Spyro (or whichever the bigger dragon is) male or female? What do you...

    please help

    The bulb is about 20 dollars, and is extremely important to have for the dragons, even more so than the viv right now. If you could hold off on buying the tank for a few days or so and get the UV sorted first then im sure your beardie will benefit from that greatly. The bulb is a flourescent...

    please help

    As Tracie just said, its a dangerous bulb to use. In the first reply to your question I said to replace the bulb, go to petmountain.com :) Its speedy delivery. The REPTISUN 10. (NOT reptiGLO) is the best one to get. Turn it off for now, its best to have NO UV from that light for a few days than...

    please help

    Has he been eating regularly? When hes in the bath rub his tummy a little to help his bowel movements. Make sure the water is nice and warm and he is soaking in it for about 10-15 minutes. And check the temps under his basking light, if hes eating well but not pooping then it may be because he...

    please help

    If the water is clean and its a light mist it shouldnt bother his eyes. Mine get sprayed about twice a day and now they even open their mouths to drink from it! Its a suggestion incase they aren't noticing the dropper. If any eye problems occur, although I doubt they will, then stop misting him...

    please help

    That all sounds pretty good to me. Try using tiles as a substrate, they are easy to clean, not dangerous, and wear down his claws . I used the water dropper for a while, but found the spray works really good because it actually covers his entire head and he realizes he is getting wet and starts...
