Hello, I'm helping out trying to find advice. A friend just took in 2 rescues, one of which I am adopting. She took them in last Sunday. The previous "owner" had them on sand, biiig surprise. So anyhoo, they have not gone poo the entire week. She has been bathing them and belly rubbing them and...

Hello all, I just wanted to show off my babies :D I'll start with Miss Nemesis being a ham as always And then there's this guy, feisty little Nachtmahr Got the most new pics of him, it seems like he outgrows his suit every other week Here are a couple of them together (HEAVILY...

Hello all, I will be taking in a new boy soon who has been rescued by a friend. He is nearly blind and he has mbd. He can walk but his legs are...floppy. He's about 10 months old so we are hoping to reverse some of the damage. Now that he has a proper reptisun 10.0, how long should it be left...

Ok, Nemesis has coccidia, not a ton, but more than she should. I'll be getting meds tomorrow. Her viv has wooden walls and glued down tile flooring. I have been told to steam clean, which I can do, but how often? And how do I steam clean wooden walls? Is it safe? Also, she roams my carpet, it is...

Here is Nemesis showing me that puppy dog eyes are NOT just for puppies And here she is enjoying my new heating blanket And here she is telling me that she would like to eat Frost, my corn snake :roll: Here is Mr. Nachtmahr after a dinner of silkworms And here he is just being too...

Ok, Nemesis has always been a fatty, but she is now 19.75" and 724 grams! This is majorly getting outta hand. I only feed her bugs every 3 days and she eats greens every day. She is just the laziest thing in the world (always has been). What can I do? I genuinely think she would eat until she...

I have a 3 month old silkie and he is healthy in all respects, but he just does not eat much at all. He does not have parasites and he does gain weight steadily, just not that much. He is 25 grams (weighed 9.3 grams when I got him 6 weeks ago, so he has almost tripled in size in my possession)...

Ok, I have no idea how this happened but the last half inch or so of Nachtmahr's tail is broken. It isn't black so I don't think its "dead." The part where the break is there is also a break in the skin. I bought some zoo med repti wound healing aid and have been making sure the area stays...

Hello all, I have a baby silkback, Nachtmahr, I have had him for almost a month so he is about 10 weeks old. When I got home from Uni today, I noticed he was a bit off, he was hanging out on the cool side (not a big deal there though he rarely does it) and he was looking a bit wrinkly (anyone...

Well, I wanted to get some pics of them together, so to keep the baby boy alive, my hand is in all the pics LOL Enjoy!

My baby Nachtmahr is almost 8 weeks old. He is 6 inches long and 10ish grams. He has TONS of energy. But he is just NOT an eater. He will eat...a little. But not like a baby should. He is a silkback so I get that he probably won't eat as much as a normal baby, but we're talking like 8 tiny...

Ok, back in March I had this problem, I will find the thread if anyone thinks they may know something. But Nemesis just went potty and there was the blood again. The question mark is because it just doesn't LOOK like blood exactly, but I can't imagine anything else it would be. Long story short...

Those of you that feed crickets, I just bought some for Nachtmahr and put them and him into a small rubbermaid container and he ate ONE. Then was way more concerned with trying to headbutt his reflection and get out. So I gave him some more mini mealies ( from www.minimealworms.com, not the hard...

Ok, so my friend got a baby beardie yesterday and when I saw him, he was bright and ate a few worms. My friend said that he came outta the box with his hand bent. Today, he is laying around, won't eat and he threw up. What can we do? We are waiting to hear back from the breeder, my friend wants...

So, many of you know I had planned to get a little silkie baby I had named Pazuzu. Well, Pazuzu isn't doing well and we don't think he will survive being shipped. My friend will be taking the best care of him that he can and hopefully he will survive. So, without further ado, meet Nachtmahr...

The guy I am getting my baby dragon from uses them (among other things) and I read their website. But I had never heard of them before, and I was wondering if anyone had some insight on their nutritional value? For anyone who, like myself before a week ago, thinks that these are just smaller...

Ok, I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new baby silkie at the end of this month and I am working to get his viv set up perfectly: If your goal was a 100 W basking spot in a 50 g viv, what wattage would you use and how far away should the lights be? Any and all help is appreciated Also...

As the title says, Nemesis has been, for a few weeks now, having mucus covering her poo, like a pouch. She's had (and still has sometimes) GI tract issues, but I'm not sure if that would be related. Does anyone know what would cause this? I've been meaning to take a fecal in for her 6 month...

Well, I have been waiting on my new baby silkie for 2 months now (seems like 2 years). Last night, he finally hatched! He will be coming to live with me in his forever home around Halloween! Very excited. Here are the phone pics that my friend sent me Despite the blur, the 3rd one is SO...

So, I'm assuming that most people pet their beardie's shoulders and back. Recently, if I rub Nemesis along her spine near her shoulders or tail base, her body kinda jumps like a nerve reaction. I have never noticed this before on her. She reacts just as we would if something poked a nerve on us...
