    Feeding at about 14 months old

    I just want to know what age my dragon should be before I stop feeding her crickets every day, along with her greens. At 14 months, should she still be getting her crickets daily, 3 times a week or maybe even just once? Thanks.

    Do BD's have trouble with changes?

    My son is away at camp and I am caring for his beardie. She eats pretty good, but hasn't pooed in two days (I feel no lumps in her tummy). I am wondering if having someone else feed and bathe her is bothering her. Could this be?

    How many phoenix worms should I feed?

    We just got one of those trial cups of phoenix worms and our BD, Oz, loves them. She is 18" and a yr old, give or take a couple weeks. She is eating more greens now and I would like to know how many of the worms to feed to her. I don't want her filling up so she doesn't eat her greens. At her...

    Help with a broken nail

    Our dragon seems to have broken one of her nails (I am trying to load pictures). The pink part has separated from the black part, which is uncomfortable for her. I can't afford to take her to the vet, but I think something needs to be done. Can someone give me some directions of what to do?

    At what age do beardies become primarily vege eaters?

    I know that when they are young, most of the BD is live food (we use crickets and meal worms). We are lucky that our dragon, Oz, has pretty much always eaten at least some greens as well since she came home. So she was about 8.5" when she came to our home on July 12, 2010. Judging by that...

    Tired of Crickets....Roach Question

    So I am FED UP with those stupid little flies that end up all over your house because of the crickets, even if you clean their cage daily. My husband is tired of them as well and said he will finally okay buying roaches. Okay, I notice roaches are a lot more expensive. I don't feel like going...

    Time without eating

    How long can a BD go without eating? Soon I will have to be away for about 48 hours and I don't have anyone that come into my home to take care of Oz while we are gone. The few people who I would trust to do so will be going to the same event that I am so they would not be able to take care of...

    Brumation

    Okay, first I apologize if I am rehashing an old topic or being repetitive...but as a new beardie owner going into our first Fall with him, I would like to know what signs to look for. I have read that some BS's will go into brumation, some will not. How do I tell the difference between...

    Is my juvenile fat or possibly empacted??

    My son's BD just seems fat...he sits on his basking rock with what looks like a beer belly (cricket belly?). He is currently about 8.5 - 9 inches long, he doesn't like being measured and I am loathe to hold his tail out for doing so as I am afraid of hurting it. I believe he is eating well...

    Substrate question

    I was at the fabric store the other day and noticed that heavy weight felt is almost the same weight and feeling as reptile carpet - and cheaper. I was thinking that if one can use towels, paper towels, or even newsprint for a BD, why not just buy the heavy weight felt and cut it to the proper...

    Will this be good for the crickets?

    My beardy's appetite is increasing & I have to go to buying my hoppers online so it is cheaper. I got a bin for them and would like your opinion if it will be alright for them. The two things sitting inside it right now are soda carriers from McDonalds, made out the same material as the egg...

    Using a digital thermometer

    I just purchased a zoo-med digital thermometer with a probe online; it should be here in a few days. Just where on my basking side do I put the probe? I know it has a suction cup on it, but I am not sure where to stick it (NO JOKES, :lol: ). I was going to buy the Accurite at Walmart the other...

    Possible problem with my UVB bulb fixture?

    I have been doing a lot of reading on this forum and now know how important the lighting is. I have a ReptiSun 10 UVB bulb for my little guy's cage. I was just reading another post that said you can get a fixture at Lowes or Home Depot which made me think of possible problem with my fixture. It...

    Dancing dragon?

    When my beardie finished eating tonight, he did what looked like a little dance. He is totally ignoring the remaining cricket behind him. He keep looking at us (my son & I) so it made me wonder if we were sort of interrupting him; I wouldn't want someone hanging over my shoulder when I eat...

    How much calcium/dusting the crickets

    How often should my beardie's crickets be dusted with the ReptoCal and is there any other dusting that should be done? I thought one thread said something about just calcium some days and the calcium w/ D3 on other days. We have been dusting our crickets with the ReptoCal (calcium + D3) twice a...

    Creating viv furniture for my BD

    Yesterday I noticed this plaster of paris volcano that my son made a long time ago and I thought, if that had a hole in the side that would be a real cool hide for him. I didn't put it in his cage though because I don't know what substance can or cannot be put in there well enough. So, can...

    Gone but never forgotten, Oz I

    I just realized this section was here, so I want to say that our little Lizard of Oz, who was only with us for one week, is greatly missed. Just because he was with us so short a time does not mean he was not loved very much; we are only thankful to have had him in our lives for a brief time and...

    Watch out for infected crickets....

    I'm not sure how the lizard itself is affected, but I found this news article that is worth knowing about....mentions Ghanns in there: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/os-cricket-farm-bankruptcy-20100621,0,4775044.story excerpt: "Payne, owner of Lucky Lure Cricket Farm, supplied...
