The reptile store in my state watches beardies (for a price), you could check that out!

Put some in a dish and put it in the viv. If they start moving around, then they're fine! I know mine seem dead a lot of the time, but they perk up when they warm up.

I will. He loves the liquid calcium you suggested from there, so I'll definitely order those.

That's what I used to do when he ate crickets, but now he eats phoenix worms. I give him liquid calcium, and he loves that because it's sweet...I just wish there was a good tasting vitamin out there.

Ralph hates his vites, I've tried to dust his worms with them, he refuses to eat them. I've tried to put them on his veggies and fruit....he won't eat that. He actually (at 8 months) won't eat any veggies or fruit at all, so I'm concerned he's not getting his vitamins. Calcium doesn't bother...

This is Ralph showing his tummy and black beard, with acrobatics included. I think the black stripes must be stress marks, because they're only there at certain times. He's kind of turned on and irritated at the same time, he just had his liquid calcium dose and loved the sweetness, didn't...

Hmm...just tonight when I was bathing Ralph, during one of his breakout attempts, he bonked his head on the side of the tub. After that he kinda spazzed out and then went limp. I thought he was dead, too! I just layed him on his favorite basking spot and left him alone, he slowly perked up. I...

Wow! Today is Saturday, so of course I slept in. By the time I woke up and went into feed Ralph, he must have been really hungry. He saw me walk in, and he RAN over to where I was standing and just started staring at me. I haven't seen that much spunk in him for a long time now. I fed him...

This is a reason I'm so glad I switched to Phoenix worms. I could never get all the crix out, and at night I'd always find a few climbing on my poor baby! Now with the worms, I just put them in a dish, he eats what he wants, then I can take the dish out and put any leftovers back in the...

Well, Ralphs new bulb came yesterday, and the Phoenix worms & calcium drops came today. It's none too soon, he's really slowed down even more on the eating. I LOVE PHOENIX WORMS!! I put them in a little dish in his cage when I got home today, and put him right in front of them. At first he...

Thank you so so much for the advice. I can't wait for that bulb to get here!! I'll order the calcium drops today, and take it easy with handling him for a bit. I don't know what all the beardies in the world would do with out this website!!

I tried to get a picture of his tongue, but my camera is not working well. You really can't see, but it was definitely dried out this AM, and still doesn't look right up close....(ignore the cage on the floor, it's an old one my son is probably waiting to fill with a garter snake or...

Thank you so much for responding. I think he may have a problem in regards to the mouth closing. His lower jaw is just slightly more "OUT" than his upper, but he can close his mouth. I'm worried, he must have slept last night with his mouth open because his little tongue was so dry this AM it...

Thank you so much for your response!!

OK, first here are the facts: How old is your dragon? I think 8 months How long have you had your dragon? 7 months How long is your dragon? about 10 inches What is the sex of your dragon? male? What size enclosure do you have your dragon in? 29 gallon (we're in the process of building his new...

I wanted to say that Ralph is doing so much better, he has a lot more energy, and I think the changes have really helped already. Here's a new picture, he's loving the new climbing logs. :P He's still not into the baths, but we're committed to doing it at least 2 times a week. He's still...

Here's Ralph hiding under his pink blankie. He loves that thing!!

Hey there, I love your enclosure!! We're getting ready to build ours, and we want to do the sliding front door as well. My husband was thinking crickets might be able to get out if we do it that way...have you had any issues with that?

Thank you!! I think he's cute ,too. His favorite change is the little blanket. I swear he's always under it, on it, or hiding in it. It's really cute, he's got a security blankie!! The only thing I don't like is that the crickets hide under it. I take it out when I feed him, but there's...
