    In Case Of Fire..!

    I always thought I was the type that was prepared for ANYTHING.. Until today.. when my apartment building caught fire. I can't impress enough how important it is to have a plan in place for evacuating your pets!! It was something I'd not considered until the moment I was awoken from a sound...

    New Greens, what do you think?

    Hi guys, I'm looking for opinions on these greens - I grow herbs & veggies in Aerogardens in my apartment, and these are some varieties offered in their seed kits. Their "Mesclun Mix" includes mustard greens & endive, which my dragon loves, but also adds "Tatsoi" a form of itty bitty Bok Choi...

    Mold in worm jug.. Ok or not?

    Hi everyone, I did a search and found a quasi-helpful thread in the Feeders section but it looks like it kind of died in Jan. after only a couple replies, & I'm interested in this one. Since moving into an apartment, all dreams of roach breeding have escaped me. I hate hate hate pet store...

    Shedding & Ravenous!

    Hi guys, My boy (just over a year) has always been a steady eater, eating both bugs & veg since he was a little kid. & he is in great condition (I call him a fat toad) even after his early brumation this past winter. His whole life he's been an every 2 to 3 day pooper - & they are ENORMOUS...

    Chives?!

    Hi guys.. So I'm in a panic & I hope it's not for a good reason.. but.. I have an Aerogarden at my apartment & it's growing a bunch of herbs that are ok for dragons, so when my boy sauntered up to the greens and decided he wanted to eat some I didn't argue with him. He had a few bites of basil...

    Baby Star Lettuce?

    I was looking into growing this type of deep green nutritious lettuce.. It is not on the beautifuldragons chart & I can't (it's been a long day so maybe I'm blind.. haha) find a way to contact them regarding their opinion on this food. It's very nutritious for people, & knowing it's a dark leafy...

    Won't eat silkworms?

    So I'm all excited to get my first shipment of silkworms for my little guy, I offer him some this morning, & he was completely uninterested! He licked them a few times, watched them intently like he does his other live feeders, then just turned his head & backed away like "I'm SO not eating...

    Aerogarden?

    Has anyone used one to grow food for their BD? It's winter here & since I'm an avid cook my boyfriend got me an Aerogarden for V-Day so I can grow my own herbs in the house. I immediately wondered if I can give some of what I grow to my dragon in his salads - save a lot of trips to the store &...

    Housing a *few* Dubia?

    Hi guys, I've finally mustered up the courage to at least -try- roaches. Not that I'll be snuggling up to them anytime soon, but what's best for Brock is my highest priority. :) To wean myself onto this endeavor I was planning on ordering a small lot of Dubia to see how it goes. I don't want...

    Waking from Brumation

    Hi everyone! So I posted a bunch of times in a panic back in November about my 9mo male going off food and getting lazy. After being reassured by all of you (and finally, his breeder!]) that he was going into early brumation due to an early growth spurt, I kind of let him be. He was in and out...

    Supplementation during Brumation

    Hi guys, I'm familiar with the normal supplementation schedule of Ca w/D3 5 days - vitamin blend 2 days. My question is.. how do you supplement a spotty feeder? My 7month old is in an in-and-out brumation (335grams) and will sleep for days then wake up ravenous. He's more likely to be...

    Oh, brumation again.

    Hi everyone, After posting a few times in a small panic about my boy, I've decided he must be attemping to brumate. Even at just under 7 months. He was 330 grams when I weighed him at the end of last month, and after speaking with his breeder I've learned that his line tends to try to brumate...

    7mo lethargic beardie.. Worried :(

    Hi guys, I posted a few days ago under "Enclosures" because I thought it was a heat issue, but I'm getting worried. Roughly 2-3 weeks ago I noticed a decrease in my boy's appetite and activity level. He is as active as normal when I take him out, but will go to sleep in the early afternoon if...

    Keeping it warm in winter?

    Hi guys, This will be my first winter with my beardie and I'm becoming concerned about keeping him properly heated. I've had snakes for years so the UTH is my best friend, but beardies aren't in contact with the ground all the time so I'm worried about heat loss. We keep our house relatively...

The pictures aren't the best but from the looks of it he is emaciated and dehydrated.. 3yrs old per the owner but about the size of my 6mo old. Can anyone help...

    The "Morning Poof"?

    Hi guys, I've noticed every morning after basking for an hour or so, my boy does a full-on black beard poofing display, throwing his head back and acting all badass.. But he's not directing it at anything or anyone, he's usually facing the wall on his basking rock. But it's literally every...

    Scared of strangers

    Just curious if others have noted this same thing.. My guy lives in my bedroom which is where my boyfriend and I spend most of our time when we're home. As he's been growing, we like to let family see him when they come by, to see how big his gotten. If I or my boyfriend hold him he is always...

    Insect & Rodent Feeder Supplier?

    Hi guys, I know a lot of us have multiple reptile companions so I thought this was a good place to ask: does anyone know of a good source of both feeder insects and frozen rodent feeders? I'm looking to cut down on shipping costs for my crickets/worms/rats and was curious if anyone knew of...

    Where does your beardie sleep?

    Hi guys, I've gone for the "naturalistic" look in my Brock's cage, and he has always slept on top of his highest rock, seemingly very comfortable. He snuggles into his sleeping spot for the night & stretches all his arms and legs out behind him. Lately, when I take him out in the later evening...
