    substrates??

    I wouldn't recommend loose substrate (sand, reptile litter, anything in small pieces) for any dragon under 16 inches. Tile is easy to clean and naturally files the beardie's nails down so they don't hurt you, I've heard people get it from Lowe's or Home Depot. I'm sure someone can tell you what...

    You know you're living with beardies when...

    You know you're living with beardies when the first thing you do in the morning is turn your beardies light on, then go "AWWWW" at whatever they happen to be doing. You know you're living with beardies when you fantasize about getting them a new tank or new food and get dreamy-eyed the way...

    my Nessie sheds

    I'm pretty sure that beardies will continue to shed even when they have finished growing. She seems small, she may still be growing, just too slowly for you to notice. One of the more experienced BD.org members will surely be able to answer this more sufficiently :) either way, it's nothing to...

    Powersun Bashing - What's The Deal?

    One thing I don't think the Powersun provides is consistency. From what I've heard, seen, and experienced, the Powersun gives out more faulty batches than other successful lights. ReptiSun and Mega, on the other hand, can be trusted more often, IMO. I do agree, the Powersun gets more bad rep...

    Stunted Growth

    I agree with Peera, we can't be sure. She could start growing steadily, sky-rocket randomly, or stay a tiny lizard. Either way, she sounds perfectly healthy, so what does it matter if she's a little shorter than the rest? :)

    Got a New BD.. Is this Impaction?

    I wouldn't worry right now, it's only been a day. Give it some time. Also, 6-10 crickets isn't many at all, so it could affect the time it takes for him to produce stool. After he settles in he should start eating much much more. Give it a couple more days before you worry. If you can, you...

    Dragon Food Pellets

    The pellets will be sufficient to fill him up until you get new PW's. I wouldn't recommend them to feed for a long time, but if you're at a shortarge of live feeders for awhile, it'll be perfectly fine. Personally, I'd just let my beardie live on salad for a few days.

    currents

    Currants are raisins. They're made from a dark, seedless grape. Wizbee is correct. Your beardie can enjoy them as treats. :mrgreen:

    New family additon

    Generally, leaving a dish of water in the tank is frowned upon because it raises humidity levels, which beardies are sensitive too. A soak once or twice a week in lukewarm water up to his armpits will suffice for hydrating your beardie. He will take in water through his skin and his vent. I...

    You know you're living with beardies when...

    You know you're living with beardies when you wake up hours before you have to because you want your beardie to be ready to digest properly when you feed him. :x You know you're living with beardies when your stomach is growling up a storm, but first you have to cuddle your beardie..then feed...

    A 2-part post! A Scare and a Trip!

    That reminds me of when I set Thor down on my bed for three seconds and found him under my dresser a whole lot of panicking later! He thinks he's so sneaky. :x Have a great trip! Take lots of pictures for us. :)

    irwins first blackbeard

    Oh, I remember my first time :shock: I went downstairs for a long while, and when I came back upstairs I saw that Thor had ransacked his tank (knocked over his plant, knocked down his hammock, scratched up his substrate) and was black bearding on the far left side of the tank. Once I came in he...

    Tiny bugs living with my crickets?

    They're awful, trying to land on my hands while I father crickets for Thor. I keep the window by the tank open in an attempt to get rid of them.
