Hi Guys, I posted a month back about Gandhi, my 6 year old dragon who hadn't pooped for 6 weeks. .... So here is an update and still some questions! 3 weeks ago he went to the vets (who has some experience with reptiles, my nearest reptile specialist is 60 miles away). He took an Xray and saw...

Hey guys, my 6 year old beardie is very lethargic. He always brumates. Back in march he woke up and was active for a month then went back into lethagic mode and has been that way for 2 months nearly. He hasnt pooped and thats what i suspect to be the problem. Ive given him baths, rubbed his...

Hey folks. Gandhi has just been for his yearly vets appointment and fecal sample. Mites showed up in his fecal although the vet said, 'well, it doesn't say what type of mites so i guess it could be house mites, which are everywhere'. So not particularly helpful! He gave me some panomec which i...

Hey Guys. A couple months ago I thought Gandhi was going into brumation. He had all of the classic signs of it. I had a fecal sample done just incase and it turned out he had pinworms. They have been treated and he has eaten a bit since but now he hasn't eaten for a week and is showing all the...

Hey Guys, Gandhi Is one and a half so this is the first winter he could have brumated. I've read the article on brumation and he is showing all the signs but I just have a few questions ..... Obviously I want to know that he's not just ill! It has dropped about 5 degrees here in England over...

Hi Guys. I haven't been on for a while but I just want to run through where i'm at with Gandhi to see that everything's as it should be. He's recently turned 1 year old. He's been in a 4x2x2 viv with tile, Reptisun 10 and basking spot of 103, cool end 80. Meseauring temps with a digtal probe...

Hey Guys, I noticed that Gandhi has had a dark patch on his beared for a couple of days now. It doesn't seem to be bothering him and everything else is completely normal. Here is a picture of it. Does anyone know what it could be?

Hey guys, Gandhi hasn't been eating the same amount as he usually does for about a month now. He went off crickets completely and the only thing that he really likes are superworms - he will eat 1 or 2 waxworms or locusts in a week. He won't usually eat everyday and he's only eating 4 or 5...

Hey guys. Just wondering what everyone does with their beardies if you have a power cut? It's looking quite likely and just thought id make plans because I won't have the internet if that happens!!!

Hey Guys, I'm just wondering about different surfaces that I have used as basking spots. If i use his fake plastic log then the basking temp is higher than if I use a stone (Using the same Watt light) - That's pretty obvious really as different materials conduct different heats .......... But...

Hello, I've had Gandhi now for 5 months (He's 8 months old). I read the article on uv again last night and I got a bit confused where it said not to use a certain type of household bulb: 'The natural daylight household bulbs that are of a bluish color should not be used due to their Neodymium...

Gandhi has gone off crickets so I tried him on superworms and he loves them! (He's 19 inches long by the way). I just have a few questions about them. 1. Are they good as a staple diet? I've looked through previous posts but couldn't find a definite answer 2. How many should I let him eat in a...

Hey guys. Gandhi is 8 months old now and there haven't been any problems up till now. The past week he hasn't eaten very much at all. He usually eats 30+ med/large crickets a day but never many greens! The past week he has been eating 3-5 a day and the past two days he hasn't eaten any. I...

A couple of weeks ago I made a post that said Gandhi wasn't basking alot (temp 105-106) but the hot area where he was spending most of his time in was 103 and the replies I had was that he was probably just happy hanging out at that temp and I shouldn't worry. But then he was opening his mouth...

Hi guys - Today a couple of times when Gandhi has run over to his food bowl he did what looked like a really quick arm waving thing - But it looked uncontrollable like a seizure type thing - any ideas what this could be? Gina

Hey Guys - Just wondering if anyone can tell me the best humidity gauge to buy? Gina

Hey folks. Just wondering if you could tell me how long your beardies spend in their basking spots a day? Gandhi only goes there after eating for about 20mins. He spends most of the time up the hot end but not under the basking spot. Temps are 107 basking and 84 cold end ( using digital therm)
