    Before and After

    Hey everyone, I just thought I would share some pictures of the changes I have made to my Bearded Dragon's Vivarium over a course of a couple of years as a result of reading posts on this website.

    Reptisun 10.0 Close Enough?

    I have a ReptiSun 10.0 (24in) for my 36in long enclosure. The fixture does not have a reflector so I was wondering if anybody on the forums could let me know if my fixture is close enough to my bearded dragon to allow for proper calcium absorption. Please let me know if it is too close as I know...

    Need Hornworm Info

    Does anyone know how long a hornworm stays in its adult caterpillar (4inches) stage because I'd like to be able to make 1 order of worms (due to shipping) with two cups and have them last for up to two weeks.

    Feeding Routine

    Can someone give me a healthy diet for a bearded dragon that will consist of Superworms and Salad. I'm thinking 5 superworms a day with salad, with the superworms being dusted with calcium 5 times a week and vitamins 2 times a week (possibly an occasional goliath worm). Is this a healthy feeding...

    Superworm Size?

    How does the "don't feed anything bigger then the space between their eyes" apply to a superworm? Because I'm feeding 2 inch superworms to my bearded dragon when the space between her eyes is only 3/4 an inch. (Or is this rule just for crickets)

    Normal?

    When my beardie poops, after she has finished I notice that the flap of skin covering her "exit" does not return to its origninal position immediately. I just don't want to mix this up with a prolapse because I never saw this before and this has been happening often. I can't post a picture cause...

    Controversy on Supers?

    I am feeding my beardie supers as a staple because they are extremely easy to take care of. I have heard that they are a good staple and i have heard they should only be treats. So which is it for a beardie over 16 inches because i am currently feeding mine about 6 to 5 each day (she is 18...

    Do Scales Grow Back?

    My beardie just started shedding her tail today. Before her shed she had all of her scales intact. After she had shed half her tail i noticed something strange. Two scales on her new half of her tail had seemed to have never formed. As you can see by the pic below it looks like scar tissue...

    Beardie Closes Eyes

    Even though my bearded dragon is getting less vitamins than recommended, due to the UVB bulb that is too small and too far away (fixing this now), she keeps closing her eyes slowly like they hurt, then holding them closed for a few seconds, and finally re-opening them. Previously i had a Solar...

    My bearded dragon opened her mouth to vent and i noticed that the back of her mouth had yellow areas. Now her mouth is mostly the healthy pink except for the two sections of skin that hang down from the top of her mouth (thats where the yellow is). I was just wondering if it is uncommon for...

    Does anyone know where i can get a Reptisun 10.0 holder that goes inside the cage. It looks like a regular hood for the reptisun 10.0, but without the actual hood. It looks like this: http://i778.photobucket.com/albums/yy66/WaveCaver/Bearded%20Dragon/070820103724.jpg...
