I'm setting up a new house for my juvi beardie. I just bought a 55 gallon aquarium. I believe it is the standard size. It's pretty deep (20" maybe). I would like to use one bulb to heat. I was thinking the megaray, or t-rex. Which size would be sufficient, 100w or 160w? I dont want to...

My girl is about 8 months old. Her nails have a slight curl to them. Should I be clipping them? If so, how often and is there a certain technique/tools I should use?

my Juvie beardie has been going to bed earlier and ealier. She used to go to bed at 9:30, now she down to 5:15 in a few weeks! Any ideas. My setup is pretty on par with what is recommended on this site, and I use a timer for the lights

My beardie wont eat veggies (5 mos old). A local breeder suggested not feeding crickets for a few days. He said she would eventually eat her salads and then I could resume the crickets. He said I could try squash babyfood to stimulate the veggie appitite. Opinions?

Got another fecal done on Tuesday. THe coccydia is gone and the parasites are better but not gone. Doc said this is common and difficult to get rid of. Put her on Panacur .2 cc every 2 weeks for the next 6 weeks. good news is she poops in her bath so this should help prevent her from...

anyone made any outside temporary enclosure for sunbathing? If so how and post pics please!

I know you are not supposed to feed mealworms, but I talked to a breeder today that says he thinks Frankie is big enough to start the very small ones. Anyone use these? She's tried a couple and she loves them!!!!! I know they are suppose to be bad for them. But this guy said they are a great...

Just to be correct, could someone tell me the temps I need and the humidy level. I'm at 60% humidity, I know that is high. Are there little dehumidifiers for cages? My apartment is very old and it always feels a little damp, specially when it is raining for 2 days straight (I hate Ohio!!!)

Hello. Frank is about 8 inches now and weighs 17 grams. He eats about 15 big crickets and does not seem to have digestion problems with them. Poops once a day. Has some greens everyday but not much. How many crickets should I dust with the vitamins/calcium d3?? All of them, 5 days a week?

my reptisun tube is now placed about 5 inches from my bd's fav spot. Is that too close? He has been a little inactive, so I moved it from 12 inches to 5 inches.

Hello. I have been posting in other topics and it was suggested I post here. My baby beardie is not eating well (I think he is about 2 or 3 months old). Since I got him 3 weeks ago he eats about 10 crickets a day. I have gone through tank setup already. Temps r good, correct bulbs, tile...

Frank is a few months old now. He never really ate more than about 10 crickets a day. He seemed to really enjoy his greens. But lately he eats about 2 crickets a day and no greens (except for maybe on bit I hand feed to him). Pooping everyday but not much. Giving him a bath everyday for 10...

Just wanna know how you guys make them and attach them. They are just so darned cute!!!

Does anyone use the zoomed (yellow) temp gauge? It has a probe I placed on the basking spot. Using a 50w halogen flood light at 15" from basking spot. Getting 92 degrees (after about 30 minutes). Does anyone think this reading is right? WIl it take longer to get hotter?

So I have to ask, what's up with the stuffed animals and "blankies"? I see so many pics where they seemed comforted by either, is this because they are raised with these items, or does it have to do with the "softness" or warmth. Just wandaring cause my baby beardie doesn't have anything like...

so I've had him a week and he seems to be settling in. Getting used to being handled. He is much more active than when I first got him. Eating about 15 small crickets a day. Thought I'd share pics of his first active exploration... I don't know if they can see colors, but he seems to be...

So went to Lowe's and got slate tile ($4) for the bottom of my baby beardie cage (30 gal). Had my measurements with me and they cut them for me...Just 50 cents a cut!! Then found some outdoor cement decorative rocks ($7) to build him a "cave" (cooked them first to kill parasites). And bought...

Last night my baby went without any light. THe temp measured 65 but he took 3 hours to wake up this morning and seemed very lethargic. This may be normal, but I will need to purchase something for winter anyways. I have the red light, but it seems to keep him up. Has any one used the Hagen...

Okay, I have a 30 gallon tank for my baby, what lighting do I need? Please me specific. RIght now I have two silver heat lamp domes. One has a 100w dayglo bulb. The other has a Reptiglo coil bulb UVB 10.0. I have heard this bulb is useless. Can I replace it with the compact ReptiSUN...

Hello everyone! My name is Krystal and I am a brand new mommy of baby beardie lovingly named "Frank" (by my husband). I don't know how old he is, but by his size I'm guessing a coupIe months maybe?? I got him a few days ago. I guess I am a nervous mom, I've never owned one before but I have...
