reptisuns don't emit heat, so you'll need a heat bulb for that.

When we experience severe weather and natural disasters, we mainly concern ourselves with basic needs of ourselves and our pets. When it comes to our pets we worry about food, shelter, and with reptiles heat and uv is one of our major concerns. But there is one thing that many people...

One the right side, second from the bottom, inbetween the frilled and skink. Also on the left, 3rd from the bottom, the one with the red head and yellow body, just above the BD and the red/black skink (?). I've seen the first one, but for the life of me I can't remember the name. Edited...

I found this while looking at the vendor list for the next reptile show. http://www.lindasgonebuggie.com/ Not sure how good they are, but seem to have decent prices. They also have some nifty value packs with a mix of different worms. Just thought I'd share.

I've been meaning to do this forever. I find myself often wanting to post pics in other people's threads, but I don't want to steal them. so hopefully this will get it out of my system. I'm going to start with their hatchling pictures and work my way up. This will probably be pic heavy...

Could anyone give me a link, or tell me more about the history of breeding and care of bds? I got my first dragon in the 90's so I know a little. I only know about the local scene and what I read in reptile magazines. internet was limited back then, here more so than other areas. Even the...

We are seriously considering getting a blue tongued skink. We (err I was) torn between a uro and a skink but we decided a skink might be best because of the similarities in diet. We already have a roach colony going (I understand they can eat them), and we're going to be building some...

I suspect Bane might have eggs. She's been really packing on the grams lately. I don't feel any eggs, but her stomach has gotten significantly larger in the last few weeks. What's the likelihood that she'll have a problem using the same laybox that my other dragon used?

She started about 45 min ago or so. Her normal bedtime is usually an hour ago. I think she keeps falling asleep. Should I just leave her in the bin overnight? I know I'm supposed to feed and bathe her when she's done, but what if it's really late? Any other advice, I'm a bit of a worry...

I know this probably belongs in the other reptile forums but those don't seem to get a lot of traffic. Many years ago, I remember reading about a monitor in reptile magazine and for the life of me I can't remember the name. It was a large one, like 6ft in length. One of the distinctive...

My dragons were treated for coccidia last month. They had me worried for a while, and were doing better. But Bane has stopped eating on me again, and she's starting to lose weight. And she is always trying to hide under her newspaper. I haven't resorted to force feeding again just yet, but...

I thought they were getting ready to brumate, and we took them to the vet just to be sure. Good thing. They both have coccidia. Astarte has it really bad. She said the whole slide lit up from it. So they got some antibiotics for that. I am probably going to have to order a probiotic...

Bane hates baths. He never grew to tolerate them. He's always spends the entire time trying to escape and making a huge mess. I've tried various methods to get him to like it, but nothing worked until today. I managed to trick him into taking a bath! I put a pan of water right in his...

We have an appointment scheduled for tuesday and I think my dragons are starting to go into brumation. They both slept most the day. do you think it'd matter if my dragons weren't conscious for their check up? :lol: And what would happen if it turned out one or both had parasites or...

Bane has 2 wrinkles in his beard and I was just wondering if this was normal. I've tried to look it up, but the only thing I find is dehydration, but I know that's not the case with him. He is at a stage where he's getting wider, and his beard is quite large. He actually has a pouch that...

I've been trying to educate myself, but it seems like all the guides on the subject focus on if you actually breed them. I have no intention of ever breeding. I understand they have different dietary needs when they're gravid, but how do you know that they're gravid if you haven't mated them...

Astarte is 16 1/2 inches and 265g today! I got her on March 4. She was 5" and only 6g. Skin and bones. then This is her today. It's hard to even get a full picture of her Look at that big ol' belly on her. Try and guess what she's been up to No wait! what are you talking about, I...

I have a little bit of an ant problem right now. I just noticed a few managed to find the dragon's salad bowls. I already keep the tank pretty clean, in fact I just cleaned everything the other day, and I clean up the little messes daily. Can anyone recommend a safe repellent, and how...

It's been a rainy day here, and now my dragons are pooped out on me early. It's not common for them when the weather is gloomy. The basking light doesn't go out for another hour. What does everyone here do, keep the lights consistent, or turn them off and let them crash out?

I caught Astarte puffing her beard out. She stopped as soon as she noticed I was looking. then she started acting like she was hunting something. She was walking really low and slow. then in a burst she takes off and nabs a parsley leaf. then she proceeded to attack a piece of banana...
