My bulb is only about 2 months old, but yes there is a screen between the bulb and her, and it is about 6 inches from her basking spot. They did do a fecal and it was negative for everything because he thought it was definately a parasite issue before he did the fecal. She hasn't had a black...

Hi! She is almost a year old, about 10 months. I am using a ReptiSun 10.0 tube bulb and I use shelf liner as a substrate. She also gets calcium supplementation daily, and a multivitamin once a week.

Hey guys, I am in desperate need of someone's opinion. My BD has been having problems going to the bathroom for several months now. To begin, I thought it was constipation because it would sometimes have bright red blood. Took her to a local vet who does "minor" reptile illnesses, and she seemed...

Hey guys! I have posted about my BDs poop problems a few times now - and he is starting Panacur (sp?) for worms. That being said, I just got a nice and very disturbing surprise. He has not started the medication yet, and his poop just had this white mucous film all around it. Very white!! Does...

He definately looks to be about 2-3 months old. I'm no expert, but I have a 9 month old who is about 5-6 times his size.

Does anyone know anything about the ReptiVite Anti-Parasite medication? Does it work and it is there any harmful side effects?

I'm not sure about the eating concerns, perhaps it is just the relocation? As for temperatures, I am having similar problems. I am having a total brain fart as to what it's called, but I got a plug that allows me to set the temperature of the heat lamp. It was about $15.00 at a local pet store...

She did not do a fecal. He is on nonadhesive shelf liner, and the Reptisun is only a few days old. I use a digital probe thermometer to measure temps. I can't think of anything that could have impacted him. His crickets are smaller than the ones I usually get, and he doesn't get any kind of meal...

Ok.. so I'm having some poop issues with my beardie. I had to take him to the vet about three weeks ago because he had some blood in his stool, and they determined he was just constipated. SO.. I upped his fluid intake, and went down a cricket size. I also started giving him a little squash baby...

I agree with putting the salad in there in the morning. I leave mine in all day, and he wont usually go for until mid afternoon. He likes breakfast, lunch, AND dinner! I'm sorry to hear about the poo. This happened to me about 2 weeks ago actually, and I immediately took my BD to the vet. Turns...

Hey everyone! I haven't read a lot about respiratory infections, but I'm worried my baby may have one. He has been breathing differently for a few days now, almost like he is taking deep breaths. It's not constant, only every so often that I catch him doing it. Anyway - I took him out for play...

WOW! I never would have thought of doing that, but that is just crazy! I actually used a coiled bulb on my Zeus for two days, while it didn't make him as sick as your baby, I soon realized he wouldn't open one if his eyes! :x When I got on here and read how bad they were I turned it off...

Hi! I think the cost of a vet visit will depend on the vet. I took my beardie yesterday and it only cost me $45.00 (US). I actually have some advice on the salad - I've noticed my BD likes his salad really moist (how it gets when its a few days old). He actually wont eat anything that's really...

I may try the baby food. That seems to be everyones best choice for getting things moving. He gets a bath every other day, sometimes every two days. He also gets a daily salad, but he is much more partial to his proteins (crickets). Thanks for the advice!

Hey guys - So I woke up this morning and ate breakfast, came back and found a large poop waiting for me. However, I noticed a little blood in it and I freaked. I immediately called the vet and made an appointment and have just gotten back. She informed me he was one of the healthiest looking...

Hey everyone - I've got a 7 month old beardie, Zeus. I've been up here a few times and you guys have been really helpful. Here's my issue: I noticed this morning that his belly was a bit larger than I'm used to seeing. He ate a huge breakfast and has been eating VERY well up until it was time...

Hi! I hope one of the more experienced people will read your post and reply, however from a massive amount of research, I know that when two dragons are housed together one of the two will usually become really unhealthy. They are not meant to be together, and one is almost always dominant over...

Hi! I had this same issue about a week ago. I was told they sometimes turn darker and get stress marks when they are trying to absorb more heat. Try turning the temp up a little. It worked for me! :)

Hi! So Zeus is about 6 months (12-13 inches). This morning I noticed he wasn't eating very much. He had like three small crickets and quit. He's usually eating around 15-20 per meal. I just ordered some smaller crickets than what he is used to, so I thought maybe he was just having problems...

Hi! I am no expert, but from my experience and the things I have read no BDs should ever be housed together. Males are extremely agressive toward each other and the dominant one can cause severe injury! I would separate all of them as soon as possible. Separating them should make all three of...
