Ive managed to rescue a female Beardie (who is now named Hope), she is fairly skinny and in need of some TLC and feeding up but the issue i have is that her nails are completely curled under. Their not cutting into her but i can imagine it being uncomfortable for her. We dont have any...

Hi guys, Ive recently moved out of my parents house where my parents where home all day due to being retired and often had Liz out and entertaining her during the day while i worked and then i did the same in the evenings when i got home. I moved into a house with my lovely girlfriend and we...

Hi Im getting an Arcadia D3 UV Basking Light, but im unsure if to get the 100W or 160W version? My viv is 4X2X2, the basking light is mounted internally and would be 13" away from basking spot. i can move the basking spot over though which would increase the distance to bulb. Can anyone...

Hi Guys, ive been waiting two weeks now for my Arcadia D3 MVB bulb to turn up only to be told they dont have them in stock and arent sure when Arcadia will send it out. Im very anxious over Liz as she has been without UVB for a long time now. They offered me a Zoo med MVB as an alternative but...

Hi Does anyone know of any vets in the UK, preferably in Lincolnshire, even better if their in Grimsby, that deal with Beardies? I have rang round loads but cant find a vet that knows anything about beardies, or even reptiles in general. Any advice would be great

Since we had the issues with the two mega ray bulbs Liz has had her eyes closed. we replaced the MVB with a spot light until the arcadia one arrives hopefully today. she picked up a while ago but now shes keeping them closed again and sleeping all the time and not eating much. Last time i saw...

Has anyone used these bulbs or know anyone who has? im on my third Megaray which has caused issues to poor Liz again :( im switching bulbs until hopefully the Megaray issues are over with. Someone on my other post recommended D3 UV BASKING LAMP but i havent heard of them before. They are...

I recently had to buy another Megaray 100W Self Ballasted MVB from kimboreptiles (the only UK supplier for Megaray MVB) Liz immediatantly started showing signs of health issues by being very lathergic and keeping her eyes closed all the time. I listened to the advice of everyone on here and...

Hi, my cousin (Ben) has asked me to come on here and ask about his beardie. He keeps Maximus (his male beardie) on sand like i do. but the difference is i regularly clip Liz's nails where as he doesnt. The problem is that Maximus's nails have started curling round. some of them arent to bad but...

Hi My partners uncle is looking to start a new set up from scratch. He is wanting some advice on the kit he will need lighting wise. He will be having a 36" x (15 or 18") x (15 or 18") viv but im not confident enough to give him advice on the lighting kit that he will need. we are UK residents...

Can someone give me some advice please? i USED to buy the bags of like 500 or 1000 crickets offline. store in a big storage box with a mess lid. i would feed them veg and fruit and have water available. Generally they didnt live to long, i think that was the temperatures but my problem was...

Can anyone give me some advice please? Liz has closed her eyes today and gone very limp and sleepy. i pick her up and she opens her eyes then closes them again. she was very cold because she had been laid in her hiding spot so i warmed her up on her basking spot and she is still the same. She...

Liz has scratched her glass sliding doors fairly badly in her "glass dancing moods" that she often gets into. Does anyone know if theres a way to remove the scratches from the glass? they afrent deep ones so im hoping there is a way to remove them as it makes her viv look less appealing.

Hey guys I know through experience plus many books and advice, that putting two beardies together is bad, but that was a male and a female. How would a 2 year old mellow tempered female react to a younger female, maybe 8 month old? Is this still best avoided? or will females get along if no...

Has anyone used this as a flooring? I have sand currently and have had no issues with Liz but her nails grow out of control. I know you all recommend tiles but they dont look so attractive in Liz's viv. While shopping i spotted the bird sand sheets that get put in cages, it got me thinking...
