I realize that temperature is very important for egg development. I have heard that it should be in between 82 and 84 F. Will they not incubate well in regular soil or is a perlite/vermiculite mix necessary? I have not been able to find this stuff without some sort of additive or MiracleGrow...

My favorite girl just layed her eggs. The substrate is currently a mix of sand, soil, and perlite. However, I just noticed that the perlite I got has been enriched with MiracleGrow. I have a bad feeling about it and I think it might be harmful to the developing embryo. Any comments? Any knowledge?

Does anyone have any reccomendations for a well priced scale to weigh the beardies? I'm not looking for anything fancy, just something that will work :]

Here is my newest little guy! I can't wait for him to grow up so I can see how beautiful his colors will become. I love his white stripes on his back and his golden eyes.

My girl is gravid with her second clutch of eggs. She is fat and healthy, of course, and has everything she needs (proper lighting, nesting box with soil mixture....) but she has been digging around for about a week now and I have been able to feel her eggs for a while. My other girl lays pretty...

I have a sub-adult translucent that seems to be perfectly healthy. However, it was suggested to me that translucents tend to have genetic problems. I have noticed that he is built differently; very long and thin with little muscling or flesh. Can any one provide more information on this subject...

Hello all! I just got back home (Texas) from living in Canberra, Australia. I was attending college at the Australian National University, taking courses in Biology and Ecology. As a Wildlife Biology major, I took every opportunity to see what kind of critters I could find. Being a lizard lover...

To make a long story short, my 10 year old male beardie named Sjdnei escaped from his cage during the night. Never happened before. I have 5 dogs that sleep in my room, three standard poodles, a miniature poodle, and my brother's South African Mastiff. So when I woke up to find him gone, I...

Hello All. I have been building a big enclosure for my dragons and I am a paranoid owner :). I Stained it on the outside. I tried not to put too much stain where the dragons will come into contact with it. I am also planning to line the walls and the floor with sticky tiles. I have read some of...

One of my little babies has a nipped tail and a nipped toe. Should I trim off the mangled and "dead" tissue with a scalpel and what should I use to clean the wound?

Does any one have any suggestions for identifying baby dragons. I have seen it where people put different colors of "paint" onto the beardies tail. I was wondering what kind of paint this is and when it is safe to put it on them. Thanks!

My first clutch (and only clutch) of eggs hatched last night. The first one to hatch was "little Runtie". The second one to hatch was "Blue". Out of nine eggs, seven were fertile and hatched. Five of them are lively little buggers. Little Runtie and Blue are the ones I am worried about. Runtie...

Ok. My seven eggs just hatched last night. They are still in the incubator and they are quite lively. I am going to put them in a ten gallon terrarium with paper towels. What should I feed them and when should I move them into their cage? I like detailed information. What other advice can any...

I was wondering what I should worm my dragons with, how much of it, and how often. My big male is not keeping weight on like I would like him too while the female is pretty fat. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I just got a blueish translucent baby about a week ago. Does any one have pictures of their translucent dragons that they can put up... or any information about how they came to be? I want to know all I can about them! :D I'm exited to see all of your trans. Here is my baby Ryo. (Bloodbank...

Here is our Brazilian rainbow boa named Poobah. He is one year old and the sweetest little thing. He likes my bed too much.

This is pics of me and my second dragon, Sjdnei. He is a big cutie and I love him. ;D

My brother and I built this about a week ago. It was fairly simple and we used scrap wood around the house. The frame was an old rabbit hutch. The Hardware cloth and staples are all we had to buy. I am going to put them in it for about an hour at a time until they get used to it.

[b][color=#FF0080]Hello everyone! I am Jo Marie and I have four dragons, Sjdnei, Odette, Citrine, and Ryo. Soon there will be more because babies are on the way. I am also the momma to three standard poodles, three boas and two horses (along with all the other farm animals). I have had dragons...
