    Anyone in SE Michigan want roaches?

    My beardie will not eat the roaches. They are reproducing like crazy and I don't know what to do with them. If you can pick them up, you can have most of them. I'll keep enough to breed again and see if he will eventually eat them. Bummed...

    When will he wake up??????

    Zig started partial brumation in October. Then late Jan went to sleep for a week at a time. Two weeks at a time through Feb. He woke up the other day and I thought it was over, but no. He didnt get up the next morning. Guess he was just thirsty. When does this end????????

    Should I get another dragon????

    I found a dragon on Craigslist that needs a home that can give her more attention. The owner says he feels bad that she wants out and to be held all the time and he doesn't have the time for her anymore. She will come with her tank and "stuff". How much of her stuff is correct, remains to be...

    How do I get a stool sample if there's no poop?????

    I want to bring in a stool sample just to be sure that Zig is parasite free still (last one done in July/August) but since he isn't eating much, there's no poop!!! Do I bring him in then? Also, do I have to give him baths if he drinks well from a dropper? I've been doing both.

    First dark beard!!! @ 3 months?

    My boy Ziggy was on the deck with us today (on a leash) and he dark bearded! He is only 3 months old! I didn't know they did it so young. Well it was so cute and, of course, completely frightening (hahaha NOT!). It only lasted a second so I couldn't get a pic. But, I had to share. :)

    I am trying to out together my dragon's bigger viv and I want a 36" fluorescent fixture to house a 36" ResptiSun 10.0 tube, and can't find one.
