Okay, I need some major help here. My beardie is only eating if I force the food into his mouth. I mean I have to force him to open his mouth to eat it. What is the deal? I have a fresh new repti sun tube 10.0 bulb. I keep the temp around 100*. He has slate tile as his substrate. I let him out...

My beardie is not eating anything but superworms. I have also noticed that there are tiny bugs walking on his log. How do I clean/get rid of bad things on his logs. They cost money and I cannot afford to keep replacing them. And, if he does have a parasite, I am going to take him to get him...

Okay, now my beardie is not eating his fruits/veggies. I am going to ask a few questions and make them short so hopefully can get some answers on some of them. Thanks in advance. How high should his UVB bulb be from his cage? I have a lot of mesh on my screen. I leave the lights/heat on for...

Sorry, if this post has already been posted, I just do not have time to search through all these threads. My beardie is only eating superworms right now, he will no longer eat crickets, hopefully it is a phase or something? As for mealworms I don't feed him them because I hear they are bad for...

Hey all, remember this: I am new to beardies. With that being said, I am taking a 2 week trip and I cannot take him with me, what do I need to do? I no know one in the state I live in, So asking a friend or neighbor is out. Basically the only thing I can do is either pay for him to go to a place...

Hey all you beardie loveers, guess what, mine is not happy. Now that may sound crazy to some because it is not like he can talk and tell me he is not happy, but I can just tell. Help me! I don't know the reason. I will tell you the guy who sold it to me has told me that it could be becuase we...

Hey, My and my man do not know what size cage should we get. We only want to buy once. We have a 36in long one now but our beardie never goes to one side of it. We are thinking the 36L by 18W by 24H. but the other one is cheaper. do you think 24L by 18W by 24H is good enough? Is that too short...

Hello. I just got my beardie about 7 months ago. He is doing fine as far as I can tell. My problem though is this, I am getting ready to take a trip to Texas from Maryland. I will have to stay in a hotel one night. I have two human children. Anyway, I was planning on taking him in a portable big...

I was wondering why my beardie always stares at me with this blank stare. He also recently has started to open his mouth at me; and let me tell you that I am a naturally jumpy person and it really freaks me out. It is like he is not happy or something. What can I do? I have two small kids and...

Okay this is my first baby bearded dragon. I wish I would have gotten him at about 6 months so maybe he wouldn't seem as fragile and maybe already have a better routine down. But I am having problems getting him to eat, although he loves crickets and mealworms. But those are the ones I should...

Okay our baby Buddy is counting on us, can you please help? I was the one who posted about "Is UVB lighting safe for baby beardies?" Here is my story: We got Buddy at 3 months old about two weeks ago. He seemed active at the pet store and healthy. We brought him home to a 30 gal tank and had...

I just got my 3 month old dragon 2 weeks ago. He was fine for the first week, now his back legs are shaking, and today he felt as if his whole body was quivering. The store guy told me that I should not use UVA/UVB lights until the beardie is at least 6 months old because it could make his eyes...
