    Rollie Pollies?

    I have to through my 2 cents in. Bearded dragons in the wild never get so spoiled that they can chose what to eat. However my little firecracker eats Rollie Pollies all the time, I grab her 10 or 20 when I see them and she chows them down. Two weeks ago she snagged two wasps right out of the...

    Tilted Mucury Vapor Bulb

    I've read a couple of places that you should not tilt your MVB. Is this because it effects the amount of UVB put out or just because it will cause it to die prematurely. Also I've been reading about the mega-ray bulbs and a website said it should be mounted 3 feet away, do you think this is...

    My beardies eyes are swollen help

    A couple weeks ago his throat went down quite a bit and then the next day it was big again. Last night his throat was huge and then all of a sudden this morning it was all gone. We'll see if it still there tomorrow but this might have been a nutrition/calcium thing. Since it's happened I've got...

    Is she Pregnant

    So my girl has been digging a lot and she seems to be getting ready to lay eggs, I just had a quick question. She has been going to the bathroom 2 to 3 times a day in small amounts is this a sign of getting ready to lay eggs, like she didn't have room for anything bigger so she goes more?

    My beardies eyes are swollen help

    Unfortunately he wasn't just budging his eyes they were like that all the time, and still swell up a little at night. The Vet said it could be MBD or just malnutrition so we are now focusing on a variety of foods and plenty of sun light we hit 77 degrees today so things are looking good on that end.

    My beardies eyes are swollen help

    I'm sorry about your dragon, we did end up taking Tito to two different vets and finally the last vet told us he thought it could be MBD. This shocked me because our other dragon which is a female who had recently laid eggs was in the same cage as our boy. If anyone would have gotten it you'd...

    Well thanks everyone, As fast as this all happened i'm sure it will be a slower recovery. He seemed to be doing fine today, chased his little female friend around trying to have familiar relations (best form of exercise for him).

    My beardies eyes are swollen help

    He hasn't eaten in a few days, but i'm ok with that because i figure he's going to have to be very hungry in order to try his new diet of greens. I looked online and found a site that said this about silk worms. Contain an enzyme called serrapeptase, this has properties that make calcium...

    My beardies eyes are swollen help

    You see that's the problem he's the same age as the female who is doing just fine, and she just laid 13 eggs two months ago. I've always given plenty of calcium with d3, and i know that people have their own opinions about d3 in calcium vs uvb but the main point here is that the girl who should...

    I'm not at my house right now but his eyes are red, watery & irritated. And the vet didn't do a blood test he just told me that he was pretty sure it was a problem with poor blood circulation and that the medication he used on the last case didn't fix anything. there is a white light and he is...
