    trimming a dragons claws question

    I cut Ziggy's nails with a normal nail clipper. she just sits there and could care less. just make sure you are in a well-lit room, cause then you can see the little vein. but if you just cut the very tip off, then you shouldnt be near the vein.

    Substrate Question~

    i like the shelf liner idea. do you just use one sheet, or line them up. i guess what i'm asking is whether the poop leaks through or not, because Ziggy usually goes before i get home from school and so her poo sits there for a while.

    Help with getting new lizard

    I would get a twenty gallon tank for a gecko. they are fairly easy to take care of and eat a lot less than a bearded dragon. i would look around the internet for care sheets on each type of lizard you want, and then see which fits you best. Good Luck!

    Substrate for the messiest beardie ever.

    My beardie is pretty messy too, she will poop and then drag her tail through it. i have her on paper towel now, and that works best for me. the repti carpet kinda grossed me out because you have to take it out and wash it. i go through a role of paper towels every 2 weeks. i just use a knock off...

    Can i feed a beardie frozen veggies?

    i am trying to find an easy way to feed my beardie a myriad of veggies. she is small for her age, so i think it is because she isnt really getting as many veggies as often as she needs. Could i buy frozen mixed veggies, (referenced from beautifuldragons.org) thaw them and then feed them to her...

    question about calcium and multivitamins

    i had the same question too. but what i did was mix both calcium and multivitamins in a tall plastic conatianer. then i tap the crickets into there and shake it up so they become dusted. this seems to work fine for my juvenile.

    Food Choices, please read

    Right now i am feeding my juvenile beardie crickets and a variety of leafy vegetables twice a day. but, honestly i cant stand crickets. they smell bad and die really easily. Is there an alternative "meat source" to feed her instead of crickets? i have heard mixed answers on whether they...

    To mist or not to mist? That is my question.

    When i fisrt tried to mist my dragon she wasnt happy and just ran away from the spray. so what i do is take a baby dropper and drop it on her nose until she sticks her tongue out, and then i drip it onto her tongue. i do this every time after i feed her. this way i know she is getting water...
