    General Tso a year later (and his first ever beard)

    yeah I'll have to remember to get some pictures if him in his normal moods. It's the only beard he's ever given us so it warranted a photo op. He's normally very bright with gorgeous blue sidebars, clear nails, etc. Howlingale sent me a beaut.

    General Tso a year later (and his first ever beard)

    Got lots of info from you guys on how to properly raise these wonderful creatures. Thanks a lot! Not really a forum crawler I guess, just an info sponge. Anyway, thought I'd regail you with a year-after story. General Tso. Born almost a year ago, (bred by Howlingale Dragons). Here he is...

    General Tso put on his big boy pants!

    Okay, he doesn't wear pants... Anyway, just for fun, I went and measured General Tso the other day. He went and grew up on me! Last time I measured (not too long ago) he was 15". Now at 5.5 mo's of age, General Tso is pegging out at 19" :shock: (oh and he's GORGEOUS in color!) I'll...

    LOL Beardies - The Official Thread

    I checked again just to make sure, but catz aren't anywhere on the suggested nutrition guides posted here. I don't think they'll make a very good staple. :mrgreen:

    IT"S FINALLY DONE!!!!! (now with pics 09/14)

    they certainly didn't SEEM to like it at first lol. Style or not, they stopped eating for two straight days. Normally, I get a bit of a chuckle out of alarmist-type freaking out over a hunger strike, but when it's YOUR dragon it's different! lol. Genereal Tso NEVER misses a meal, and when I...

    IT"S FINALLY DONE!!!!! (now with pics 09/14)

    alrighty. snapped some quick pics of it a few minutes ago. I guess it wasn't "this evening" so much as "tomorrow morning" lol but at least they're done. They're uploading as we speak, but photobucket seems to take so long on this computer I don't know if I'll be able to post them tonight or...

    IT"S FINALLY DONE!!!!! (now with pics 09/14)

    yeah.... tomorrow lol. I can snap some teaser pics, but the actual inside deco and whatnot isn't set up yet so the "grand tour" will have to wait.

    IT"S FINALLY DONE!!!!! (now with pics 09/14)

    ....and you guys get to wait for pics bwahahahahaha lol I went over and finished up the wiring on my viv I was having built. I was so sure I was going to have to redo it a few times to get it right, but I wired the timer, dimmers, lights, CHE's and everything up and it all popped on perfectly...

    To all newbies, my stupid mistake!

    just to let you know I did the same thing. In fact, maybe one worse. I didn't even have a acrylic cover on my light. I placed the fixture over a pane of glass that was built into the hood I used at first (was built for a fish tank) So yeah... They got nifty blu-ish light and zero UVB for a...

    DIY MVB Fixtures - Safe, Easy, & Cheap

    I can't remember the name of the guy on here who was an electrician, but he actually put together scematics for my setup to help with the wiring. Worked like a charm! Mine has 6 "lights" in all. 2 spots, 2 CHE's, 2 flourescent all wired to 4 "switches" 1 timer, 2 dimmers, and one auto-dimminng...

    new beardie viv from the ground up: picture log!

    Correction: technically, though you need it for aesthetics, it's not very good for your beardie. Although you won't really notice it most times, it can interrupt the beardie's sleep patterns. It's generally advised that they have total darkness during their night cycles. This isn't always...

    male and... male? DOH

    maybe it'd be easier than I thought lol. Apparently, Mushu scratched Jamie last night while I was away. Not on purpose of course, but he was being ornery and in his haste to run free across the bed, he gave her arm a good scratch. hrm.... now to help him plot his escape... lol

    male and... male? DOH

    I wish I could just sneak in an exact copy of Mushu that happened to be female without Jamie noticing lol. Mushu is Jamie's fave (and the one she picked out to begin with) so I'd get an ear full if I decided to do anything along the lines of replacing Mushu lol. and I'd get even more of an ear...

    male and... male? DOH

    well the beardies are still young but now old enough to tell the sex. General Tso was purchased from Howling Gale Dragons as a probable male. Yup. Pores on the legs, double bumps on base of tail... male. Mushu was purchased from a local "reptile specialty" pet store. Probable Female...
