    False Bearded Dragon

    I had to stop in my local pet shop today. I took a look around and he had a 'false' bearded dragon. He was beautiful and looked like a baby beardie with a true blue beard. I asked the owner about him but he wouldn't tell me much. About the only thing he told me was that they don't get as big...

    Which thermostat?

    I live in Kansas and our temps fluctuate a LOT. For example, right now it's 44 degrees outside. Last week it was around 80. It sure makes it hard to keep the tank temps correct. I'm looking at thermostats online. There are a couple brands in the $25 range. (affordable since I need 2) Is there...

    Here we go again

    I brought home a guy in really bad shape tonight. He had been living in a house with no heat. His enclosure was on the floor in the dark hallway. He had no lights at all. I knew about him, he belonged to a friend of my sister. They talked of giving him away a few times, but the kids always...

    Bearded Dragon Food

    When I got Frank, he refused to eat crickets. (You can read about him here viewtopic.php?f=3&t=100762 ) He picked at the greens but didn't eat a lot of them. I found he LOVES superworms. I put them in his salad and he does get some greens when he is eating the worms. He eats 4 or 5 worms a...

    My introduction and Frank's story

    I am a first time Beardie owner. This site has been wonderful for me! I've been reading since Saturday. Frank's purchase was definitely not planned. My nephew and I were checking out the pet store in the mall when in the back we saw a tank with a dead lizard in it. The poor guy was covered in...
