    What is going on at ReptileUV?!

    Has anyone heard from ReptileUV lately? I ordered two Megarays on July 22nd and have yet to receive them. I've tried getting in touch with John numerous times on email and tried calling today. I just want to know when to expect them! Absolutely no response. So my dragon has been sitting...

    Dubia troubles...help!

    My colony is doing quite well, numbers wise. But in the past month I have noticed them getting really smelly. Smells sort of like stinky feet and garbage mixed together, and it's getting worse. I've cleaned the bin a couple times now so I know it's not a cleanliness problem. The colony is doing...

    Free Superworms - Lake Forest, CA

    So I ordered 500 superworms from Great Lakes HW, and Gobi has absolutely no interest in eating them. I'd hate to see them go to waste. Any dragon/reptile owners in Orange County want them? You can have them free, just have to come to Lake Forest to pick them up. They are gone.

    Does anyone know anything about this product? http://parazap.com/index.htm I finished treating Gobi for pin worms and just got back his fecal check results. Still has them. Ugh! The vet is telling me I don't have to do another round of Panacur, but I hate the thoughts of allowing the...

    Surface Temps vs. air temps

    Surface Temps vs. Air Temps So which are you supposed to measure? I have a temp gun I've been using and have been measuring surface temperatures on various spots in the viv. So do we want air temperatures to be 105F at basking spots, or surface temperatures? -Phil

    Dubia Age...can you tell?

    When you get too many male Dubia, it's good to feed the extras to make the ideal ratio...seems to me that you would want to feed off the old ones first, and let the younger males have a go at the girls. My question is: Is there any way to tell old ones from young ones?

    Question about Stuart McDougall's False Rock Recipe...

    Has anyone who has used this recipe had any issues with high heat and the foam melting...or any of the materials reacting negatively with heat?

    Little Pink Around the ear holes...

    I think they are ear holes... :wink: Anyway, my beardie has little touches of pink near the end of his lips, right under and a bit around his ear holes...he's had it since I got him, just trying to figure out if its just some natural coloring or something else. He's a normal phase.

    "Pet Store Bulbs" vs. Regular Bulbs

    I'm just curious... I was at Lowes in the bulb aisle and they had a ton of variety...They have all the same sizes, wattages etc. that would fit in my dragons light fixtures... My question is: Is there a difference between the pet marketed bulbs and the ones you can get for house hold use?

    How can you tell when your dragon is hungry?

    I've had him for a week now, and been feeding him 3 times a day. He'll eat 4-5 crickets per feeding. Sometimes the way he looks at me or somehting in his body language tells me he's still hungry. Are there certain behaviors that they exhibit when they are hungry?

    Just got a dragon, just joined the forum.

    Hey All- My wife surprised me with a bearded dragon for my B-day and he's sitting here next to me basking. I was planning on getting one soon, but wasn't quite ready yet...had to do some panic shopping at the pet store the next morning. I thought it would be prudent to join a forum for...
