    Omg...Petco

    When i got back from my frustrating trip to petco, i had sent an email to the corporate office to rant and vent a little. The next day i recieved this email: Now pretty much the whole email seems like a generic copy/paste kind of thing and i expected that to be the end of it. But today as i...

    Guessing my beardies age

    Thats true, but also assuming a reputable breeder. We all know dragons sold at large petstores are pretty much hatchlings.

    Guessing my beardies age

    Its hard to guess beardies ages on size. Growth can be stunted due to poor husbandry. Also depending on what it was being fed, if theres not enough protein in the diet, then growth can be stunted. Chrono is basically the exact size of my Ollie, and his hatch date was 12/16/10. So by going off...

    Omg...Petco

    I always wondered why petco kept all their crickets in tied plastic bags, do they really expect them to survive for a long time in those? The ones i always see are dead.

    Omg...Petco

    Yea, i normally never go near petco but i thought id give it a try this time. itll be my last. From what i hear, the one by my girlfriends house is decent as well. For me its the opposite. The Petsmart is the better one, and usually have LIVE feeders. But unfortunatly they dont have reptiworms.

    Petco.....must i say more? I will, to mad not to vent lol. So today i ran out of reptiworms....luckily a shipment of another 1000 is coming in tomorrow. However since i am at work until 6pm tomorrow, Ollie wouldn't have any worms until then since the mail comes at 3pm. So i decided to call...

    Ollie and Babygirl!

    Well i have a quick update on the little guy, finally got around to getting a new scale from target. Ollie is officially a whopping 28 grams! Hes gained a full 10 grams since i brought him home, so thats pretty much 1g per day. I also measured him the other day, and he was 8.5 inches. I'm...

    need light fixture help!

    i would suggest just getting the under the counter fixture from walmart, and mounting it inside the cage.

    Almost Done!

    I have my reptisun mounted inside the cage, i felt that with it being above the screen i couldnt really get my guy close enough to the light, while maintaining good temps in the cage. I used a 24inch under the counter fluorescent light fixture from walmart, make sure to keep the plastic covering...

    Temp Control Device

    I personally do not have a temp control device on my vivs. At the moment i just check the temps when I'm feeding or walking by, and adjusting wattages on the bulbs. I have heard of people using dimmers on basking lamps, which are pretty cheap. Would basically involve having a high watt bulb and...

    jumping beardie

    My little guy does the same thing. when i go to put him back in his viv, he squirms out of my fingers and tries to run up my arm. He pretty much latches on too, so it takes a couple tries to actually get him in the viv. The strangest thing ive seen him do is when i put his bowl of worms in, i...

    Haha, you should see the face on Babygirl when i have Ollie out for quality time instead of her. I swear i can feel the gaze of the evil eye on my back, and then theres the days when i feed Ollie first, oh boy do i get the stink eye then. I know what you mean about the $$, this past year has...

    Ollie and Babygirl!

    So ive been thinking the past couple days that Babygirl is most likely stressing Ollie out quite a bit. Hes been having pretty dark stress marks, and babygirl would spend her day glass dancing trying to get at him. So today i moved Ollie to a corner behind my bed thats out of view of Babygirls...

    eating ALOT

    What i found to work pretty good, is to find a cheep tank online, like a 10 or 20 gallon. Put a heating pad on the bottom, and cover most of the top to keep the heat in but allow some air flow. All you need is some toilet paper rolls and egg carton for the crickets to climb around on. As long as...

    Ollie and Babygirl!

    Haha, aren't they adorable when they are shedding! His legs were shedding this morning, and all i kept thinking was, "I sure do hope his back is shed when i get home." And what do you know, when i got home from work i saw this from across the room! After i gently helped him remove all that...
