    Getting a CAT...any precautions to take?

    We've had Po for 2 years. She is perfectly fat and healthy being the only 4-legged critter in the house. We have a friend who has to give up her 5 year old cat due to her significant other having allergies. We offered to give him a good home. We want to know if there are any major...

    Picky picky eater!

    Po has decided to be the pickiest eater EVER. About a year ago she decided crickets were to fast and she was too lazy, so we switched to supers. LOVES them. Then our local pet store stared carrying hornworms, and eventually, lobster and dubia roaches. She cant get enough of the hornworms...

    Split nail!

    When taking a close look at it, even touching it to see if either side was loose, caused her some pain. Both pieces seemed pretty secure still, but it's not bleeding today, which is good!

    Split nail!

    I had originally posted in the Behavior section because we initially didn't see the injury to her nail, and she wouldn't let us near her. We have a large hutch that we renovated about a year ago for Po's enclosure. She's about a year and a half old. We have the "shelves" lined with reptile...

    Sub-Adult suddenly not eating, being aggressive

    Here's a picture of her little nail. It doesn't seem to bother as much tonight, except if you handle her hand (obviously). I've never really checked for eggs before, but feeling around her belly and pelvis I'm feeling no obvious bulges that could be eggs. She's old enough to my knowledge...

    Sub-Adult suddenly not eating, being aggressive

    We got home this afternoon and Po was nice and calm, like nothing happened. We had some cuddle time, then I noticed her nail. It appears that while burrowing and clawing around in her cage this morning, the live tissue from the nail got ripped from the black pigment/dead tissue and had bled a...

    Sub-Adult suddenly not eating, being aggressive

    Po is a year and a half old, we got her when she was about 2 months old. She's never been fussy about being handled. I would go as far as to say she loves to cuddle and she loves the attention. But today she gave us a scare. Sometimes when she's near a shed she won't eat for a couple days but...

    Acting CRAZY...coming into spring?

    Po is a over a year old and this is her first spring as an 'adult'. We live in a colder climate so it is just starting to get warm here, and for the past few days she has been acting CRAZY. I have to wonder if its spring fever or her mating season or something. She is frantically glass...

    Beardie woke up and decided not to eat...for 3 days.

    We took Po to the vet this weekend and it turns out she is positive for protozoans. The vet wasn't specific for what type, but she went one de-worming treatment and is going back next week for another treatment and follow-up. She has been a bit more willing to eat, though it is slow...

    Beardie woke up and decided not to eat...for 3 days.

    Po is a little under a year old. She is in a large tank with a UVA/UVB lamp and a basking lamp, and her temps are normal. She's been happy in her tank all winter, but for the past couple days she has REFUSED to eat. She usually eats supers with the occasional hornworm (she can't get enough of...

    Impaction? Beardie not pooping!

    It's been about 2 days since my last post on Po. We've continued to offer her salad and feed her applesauce and olive oil. We've also given her oral fluids and daily baths, and... No poop. She is starting to feel a little skinny, as she's been getting nothing but fluids and applesauce for...

    Long time no poop

    The same thing is happening to my little girl - she's 8 or 9 months old. Try sugar-free applesauce mixed with a little bit of olive oil. We thought she might have been impacted and that was suggested to us.

    Impaction? Beardie not pooping!

    We never used substrate - only carpet. We gave Po a bath, a mixture of apple sauce and olive oil, and a few hours later she proudly presented us with a nice little poop. It was small, but healthy looking. Tomorrow we'll give her some more of the mixture with hopes she can produce another one...

    Impaction? Beardie not pooping!

    Our vet works in a wildlife center and we are waiting for him to call us back. He's a little hard to reach but he's the only tried and true herp vet in our area. We noticed the temperature in the tank drop when the weather changed, and currently its around 85 degrees on the warm side. We are...

    Impaction? Beardie not pooping!

    Po used to have regular poops every 1-2 days. Suddenly as the weather started getting colder, she stopped eating crickets and veggies entirely. We grew concerned and switched Po to new feeders several days ago. We got her superworms, mealworms, and a hornworm to try on Sunday. She GLADLY ate...

    Is your dragon sleeping too much, not eating enough? READ ME

    Little Miss Po has had a smaller appetite over the past month or so - about 10 crix a day plus veggies. One thing has changed since I last posted on this thread - she is not eating ANYTHING. She is 18 inches long and we estimate her to be around 8 months old. I'm not sure if weather is a...

    Is your dragon sleeping too much, not eating enough? READ ME

    I too am a first time beardie owner. I don't know Po's exact age, but we think shes under a year old. She's 18 inches long. She's been steadily eating less and less (from 60 crix a day as a hatchling to around 10) but though not loosing any weight. Her poops are around every 2 days. We've...

    What material to use for floor?

    We're building Po a new viv from this guy here! In efforts to be creative, we found a hutch that we stripped down and cleaned up. We have the original glass doors that we plan on using, and were going to enclose the top and back with some kind of screen like this...

    Entering Sub-Adulthood...Metabolism change?

    Po is about 6-7 months old, and has grown EXPONENTIALLY! She is 18" long, and filling in very nicely (I don't have a gram scale to weigh her). Last time we took her to the vet she got a clean bill of health. She previously had pinworms and slight MBD. Our vet de-wormed her and prescribed a...
