Hi everyone! My little guy is doing great now! His color is still changing a bit but it's not a severe a change as before. He's also let me pick him up the last couple days without running away! I'm pretty excited about it, and he seems to be alright with it. Thanks for all the help, and...

The thermometer has a little black plastic thing coming off the suction cup...not sure if that's considered a probe or not. The temperature is being taken right where the top of his basking rock is.

We had the wrong UVB bulb in about a week ago, but I was informed of that and shut it off....We are still waiting on the arrival of our Repti-sun 10.0 to be shipped to us since none of the pet stores around had it in stock. Should be in today. The basking side is around 102 and the cooling side...

Hi! Our little guy seems to be changing color. His stomach, when he's in his tank, is a black and white patterned color, but when we take him out to feed him, it's all white. Then when we put him back, it's back to the pattern again. Also, He get's more red out of his tank when he's feeding, but...

His appetite varies. Sometimes he'll eat like 8 crickets at a feeding, other times he's good after like 2. He generally eats about 8-10 total on a daily basis. Really still doesn't like any greens, but we offer them so maybe one day he'll surprise us and chow down on them!

Hi everyone! Just thought I'd write and let you all know that our little guy is doing great now! He's so hyper now it's crazy! He was even swinging on the vine we have in the tank and swimming in his waterdish! Thanks for all the help, and n00bness, I'm sure yours will perk up soon enough. We...

Hi everyone! Our little guy is doing MUCH better today! He's lively, running around, eating crickets and just seems happier. I'm glad I got that bad UVB shut off when I did! He was even just sitting on his rock looking around instead of sleeping in his cave! Thanks for everyones help and...

Hi everyone! Well, we woke up today to a very happy dragon! He came out of his little cave and has only had a couple small naps so far! He's eating, running around and now he's sitting on the edge of his water dish, half in, half out! I guess that UVB was the problem for sure! Thanks for all the...

We have a Reptisun 10.0 ordered from the Pet Store in our town. They didn't have any in stock though so I've been told he'd be better off with no UVB until the new light is in rather than using the bad one. I tried the squash but he doesn't like it! Or atleast he just pretended it wasn't there...

Lol...thanks for the enthusiasm! Let's all just hope this is the problem so he can be healthy and happy real soon!

I'll definetely try out the squash idea. I have a 10 month old baby that still loves squash so I have it around the house all the time! I shut off the old UVB I had in about 2 hours ago now and he's coming around already. He's still really lethargic, but he came out of his hideout and is...

Ok. I just checked the site and PetSmart does have the right ones, but they're $49.99. No big deal though, I'd rather pay a little more so that he has the right one! My bf will be buying it for me after work so I'll make sure to stress that he needs the Repti-sun, not reptiglo! I'm not sure...

We do have a regular basking bulb. I'll shut the UVB off right now. I just called PetSmart and they have them for about $20...unless they gave me the wrong price? I really hope this works for him because I feel bad for him! Do you think I'll notice a change in behavior just from shutting off the...

Ok...so apparently I DO have the wrong bulb. It's a ESU Reptile UVB. Someone messaged me about it and it caused serious problems with her dragons and when she change it to the repti-sun 10.0, she saw immediate results. The behavior of her dragons (lethargic, loss of appetite) was identical to my...

Lol...most of them seem pretty dim-witted for sure! I just called PetSmart and they helped a lot more. Found one, and put it on hold until I can get there! Thanks again for the help! Do you think I should just shut off the one I have now? He probably won't get the new one turned on until later...

I just talked to the Pet Store where we bought the first bulb and he said that the Repti-sun bulb is just a UVA bulb? Is that right or is there one that's UVB? I could probably just go to a different pet store, just thought I would check and see what you guys thought first.

Thanks to everyone that replied! I will shut the bulb off and take it back to the store today to replace it with the Repti-Sun one! I hope that it works for this dragon too! I'll keep everyone posted!

Ok..I just said that he wasn't falling asleep while eating, but he just did...but he only closes one eye for the most part first and it looks like he's sleeping. He'll open both though when I come around, but he sits around with one eye closed. Also, we haven't had his poop checked yet. I'll...

He's been pooping every day since we got him. The crickets are usually the size of in between his eyes but he'll eat the odd few that are a little bigger. I put him in his feeding spot just about 10 minutes ago and he's only eaten one. He's not falling asleep this time though. Just kind of...

Hi everyone! My beardie is around 7 weeks old or so now and he seems to be sleeping alot. His temps are all right within the perfect range, and we do have a good UVB bulb...not exactly sure what it is, my bf bought it. He came on here and made sure not to get the kinds that people were warning...
