The vet said that it looks as though the lump is only growing up and out, and not internally, which is a good sign--even though it affects Stella's balance, she confirmed that as long as she's still eating and acting alert during those times, maybe she's just slowing a bit because it's winter...

I've had my rescue beardie Stella since last summer, and when we got her, she had a small lump on her back, the previous owner said it was a retained shed he had tried to pick off and it had formed the lump (when we got her it was the size of dime, and barely raised). She's at least 5 years...

Has anyone else had problems with finding an escapee (roach) every once in a while? They must have gotten out last time I cleaned the tubs, I'm just hoping the two I found (both males) were the only ones!! That would be something to explain to the landlords! The fam is doing well, the newest...

Alright, here are some pics ! Sorry it took so long to get these up! Stella update: she's received three injections of Baytril...the vet said the growth hasn't gotten bigger...the swelling is down but the size itself hasn't changed...if it gets bigger or she stops eating...then we need to...

So I have been MIA from the board for quite a while...things were crazy with a new puppy, graduate school, writing a thesis, and student teaching! So! I'm back (I hope) and with some exciting news...the zoo is now up to FIVE beardies! We adopted our most recent addition last week, and his...

She's a pit bull mix...with mini eskimo, terrier, and who knows what else, but she is a handful already! Our other dog is gradually getting used to her, and they started playing together almost nicely :D Sped, or fatty as we call her :lol: had made such a turnaround that even I'm...

thanks! I like 'em too :-) :D

Things have been crazy lately! All the beardies are eating salads like crazy :-) I'm super happy about that! Sped wondering why there aren't any crickets raining down! Bruce with his new set up. It doesn't look like it, but he's gaining weight! Stella checking things out Herman...

I'm glad that someone else can see they've gained weight! It's so hard for me to notice since I see them everyday...but at least they are pancakes ALL the time anymore, they actually have something in their bellies! I was wondering how long I should keep the handling to a minimum, I want to...

They look great, congrats! Sol sounds like my Bruce, and Elara sounds like my Stella! Bruce is always trying to get our attention and get out of his viv, and Stella has never shown a stress mark, even at the vet's office when she got an x-ray. It sounds like they have a great home now, and I'm...

Bruce and Stella had their checkup at the vet yesterday--they each gained 50 g or so... (Stella lost the liquid in her tummy, so she was the same, at 300 g), and Bruce was also up to 300 g. The vet put Bruce on a dewormer for pinworms for two days on, two weeks off, two days on. Panacur? The...

They definately move around in these big tanks--although Saturday Stella started acting like she was getting sick (maybe a respiratory infection?) so we upped her basking temps and over night temps, and moved an air conditioner (got one from a friend) to their room to lower the humidity--she...

Everybody had baths last night, and my brother (who is working on an art project) asked for some close up shots of different parts of the lizzies.... P.S. Herman fell asleep on me for the first time last night :-)

So I decided to condense my seperate posts about all my beardies into one! Here goes.... Herman came first--he is about 2 1/2 months old (going by what the breeder said when I got him (supposedly 2 weeks old), and 12 inches long including his tail. He's a friendly guy, and likes to explore...

thanks for the advice!

I just moved my baby beardie Herman to his 75 gallon viv, with a nice big branch in it-- (the branch is maple, and was soaked for 45 minutes in a bleach solution, it's too big to put in the oven)...he's been in it since yesterday, and today we noticed tiny black bugs all over the tile in his...

So I WAS going to get 40 gallon breeders to move Bruce and Stella into and get rid of their old vivs...BUT I found two GREAT deals on 75 gallon tanks on craigs list, and spent the last two days driving around to get them :-) we cleaned them last night, and are now cleaning the tile we had in...

Yes, I agree about the handling too--right now I only pick them up to take them to the bathroom for a soak, other than that, they are left alone (except for feeding times). They have been handling crickets and a few small medium sized superworms fairly well (normal BM once a day) and I...

thanks for the advice! I turned their basking lights off for the day, and the temps stayed within a good range--also had a fan running to keep the air moving :-) I'm hoping to get the 40 gallon breeders tomorrow and get rid of the huge stinky wooden ones that are currently making my house...
