    How often should adult bearded dragons poop?

    My dragon Sandy has been slowing down due to the cold. She isn't as active as she was before the winter, even though my temps should be ok, the house still gets cold and lowers the temps in the tank a little bit. The main thing that has made me worry about her is that she hasn't been pooping in...

    Hey guys, Was wondering if anyone could recommend me a good basking bulb that I could pick up maybe at Petco or Petsmart? Does it matter what type of basking bulb I get?

    Beardie not making poo

    My Beardie hasn't made a poo since Friday (Sunday is over now and she's sleeping). She was on play sand for the first 7 months of her life as her breeder told me that's how he keeps all of his beardies and he has never had impaction. During her time on sand she went poo daily. But now that I...

    I think sand is better for my bearded dragon

    So I am not sure yet, but I will tell you why. My bearded dragon grew up on sifted play sand. I got her at 2 months from a breeder who said all of his dragons lived on play sand and he never had one get impacted. I got her the reptile supershow in Los Angeles last year and she was one of the...

    Local pet stores starting to carry less reptiles/no beardies

    I don't know if anyone else is noticing this, but I thought I mention it. Yesterday I was driving around West L.A. looking for a petshop with a good desert background for my beardies tank. I visited 6 places (almost all the exotic pet stores in West L.A.). I noticed that the petco I visited no...

    Your beardies blanket

    I'm switching to tile soon (from sand). And one thing I noticed about sand is she liked sleeping and digging in it sometimes due to it being soft. So I feel like she needs a blanket now with the tile, to balance things out. Where in your beardies tank do you put the blanket? I want to put it...

    Does handling stress out your beardie?

    My Beardie is about 7 months, and I admit I barely handle her. I pet her almost daily and I move her when I need to, but I can tell she gets a bit surprised when I handle her. Sometimes she wants to run. I took her out a few times and she got really super bright in color, and wanted to run...

    What vegetable is this?

    Hey guys in this picture there is a dark leafy green with red veins. Could any of you identify that vegetable for me? My beardy was pretty much raised on romaine lettuce before I got it, so she doesn't like collard greens much. But I'm thinking she might like the green and red vegetable in the...

    Anyone know how to deal with a bully cat?

    This is a long shot, but hoping someone might have experience or some ideas for this issue. We have a cat 1 year 1/2 that my mom adopted a few months back. This cat is really two faced. Calm with people, but when another animal comes to play he is a big bully. He has bullied our other cat and...

    So when feeding a young dragon small crickets and they don't eat all of them, what is the best way to pick up the small ones and put them back in their container?

    Anyone here just order Dubia without making a colony?

    If my mom ever found a dubia colony in our place she would have a serious panic attack. The loudest I've ever heard her scream was when there was a flying roach loose. She has a phobia with them, so I think a colony is out of the question for me right now. But do any of you guys order the small...
