    Juju needs help

    Hi, I haven't been around in a while, because things have been going fine with Juju, but I'm getting progressively more worried about him. Since last fall, he hasn't been eating much, and doesn't EVER defecate. I've taken him to the vet, and the vet says his husbandry seems excellent. They did...

    Creating a...Duplex?

    Hi all, I'm wanting to make a 2 tank stacked forever-home for my Bearded Dragon and my Uromastyx. Their treatment and diets are similiar, but not exact. (for example Uro's need about 10 degrees Fahrenheit warmer). Sooooooo many questions. I've glanced around at other questions previously...

    wrong bulb?

    Hi I bought a 100w MVB (long story, I thought it broke and tried turning it on every now and then and 5 days later it finally worked) but now my bearded dragon doesn't bask. I've heard this may mean he doesn't like the bulb and to take it out, but I wanted to make sure he's just not hiding...

    eye bugging?

    I've seen this perhaps a couple of times with my beardie, but this time I got a closer look than most and it's freaky! He rolls his eyes up and closes them and... his eyes just bulge! I think I've heard somebody on BD.org mention thing once, so does anybody have an idea what this is that my pet...

    somebody adopt this cutie...

    Hi I was looking around on a adoptreptiles site I found on a Tortoise forum, and it has other lizards, bearded dragons included. I came across this cutie named Twister who has MBD, and is just a youngin! She's in NC and I wish I could help her, but honestly I'm just learning how to take...

    Northwestern Berks Reptile Show

    Is anyone going to hamburg, PA for this show on June 13th? I've been thinking of going and have visited their site (http://pythons.com/hamburg/vendor.html) and want to go there to buy an adult female beardie. I wanted to know if anyone was going, was in WI or Midwest and wanted to arrange some...

    pretty sure i'm mad right now.

    I was working so hard on making Juju's new cage amazing. I've done everything from getting a 55g tank, slate tiles, to switching to sand, to switchting BACK to slate tiles, to buying a T-REX MVB bulb, and a deep dome to match. so all the substrate I've used does not work as good as the crushed...

    really dumb question.

    I am a very protective beardie owner, and when it comes to feeding, I'm conservative. For example I won't feed him what I deem 'too many crickets' because I don't want him to get a belly ache, etc. I know, I know, I probably could relax a little bit, but at this one subject I have been at odds...

    outdoor enclosure advice

    I'm looking to, since its nice and sunny and warm for the summertime, an awesome way to mix bathing and just hanging out for an outdoor inclosure. what i'm looking for is to be able to bathe him while I hang out on my back porch (really nice, I live on the second floor of a duplex and have a...

    did I make a mistake?

    So i've been experimenting with substrate in my new 55g tank. First, I put down paper towel and 12inx12in slate tiles. After a week I just didn't like how the whole thing worked out cleaning-wise. So, then I bought some play sand from Walmart (sorry I don't know the brand, I'm terrible), and...

    doesn't touch healthy food (ugh)

    Basically, I fought out that lettuce is NOT a good thing to feed my beardie, so I bought some Bok choy. I don't think he likes it, he barely eats any of it. I think he's getting skinny, help!! -sam

    any other uro owners out there?

    I have a uromastyx named Spot, and I want to take the bestest care of him! This site has helped me so much with my bearded dragon Juju, I don't want to go anywhere else! I'm concerned about his diet/temp/coloring/size.... -sam

    Home is well underway

    If some people have noticed, I've been trying to make my Juju's home better. He's 2, and was living in a 20 gallon long since I got him when he was 3 months old. UVA/B tube, 100w basking bulb, crushed english walnut shells sand-type substrate... well, Juju's upgraded (most of the way) He's not...

    dandelion greens?

    I'm not sure if I'm just being too literal, but when saying dandelion greens, you're talking about the dandelion flowers leaves? the weeds? I don't know of anywhere that sells them at least, and I don't think I should pick dandelions in case they were sprayed. anyone care to guide my confused...

    'sun' bathing behavior?

    Juju, since i've put him in a new, bigger cage, has been acting strangly. He eats less, and doesn't poop much. Under the light, he closes his eyes, but will open them if i say his name. I heard somewhere that that could mean the light is bothering his eyes, but I don't think the basking light or...

    wierd bath experience...

    I gave Juju a bath today and he did things I've seen other people post, but i don't know why. for one, he used his front and back legs to 'scratch' at himself, or was it to put water over his body? He also poo'd, but i knew that could happen (tho it never did before) and he also ran at a...

    mouth gape and hand spasm?!

    I came home and he's under his basking light with his mouth open. he's also moving his 'right hand' around but not the arm. i'd show a picture if i knew how... -sam (ps. i'm sorry if this isn't a disease or something i just don't know what it is.)

    MVB?

    What's a MVB light? I am looking at buying a larger tube UVB light, and I just wanted to make sure I get something right. Also, if the brand is something else than Reptisun, is it bad? It was something sounding similiar, but when I look it up to check on the store webpage it isn't there. but it...

    Snugglies? Mine isnt :(

    I'm not sure if it's just my beardie, but he doesn't seem as affectionate. He doesn't like being held, unless it's dark (he'll fall asleep on my chest), but only if it's dark. I can't picture him snuggling cloth at all, since whenever he's out he's CONSTANTLY moving. (on that point, I'm afraid...

    starting a new tank

    Since i've started posting here, I've found out I really need a larger tank. So, I'm getting a 55gallon one! yay! I'm buying the things I need to set it up (i'm giving my lighting and stuff for the trade), and I figured i'd try to be smart and ask for advice on all specs of my beardies new home...
