    Female beardie caged alone laid eggs!

    Hey I just wanted to double check that this was normal. My 16 month bearded dragon laid about 12 yellowish eggs. She has never been near another bearded dragon. Should I do anything for her? Does she need any special care at this time?

    How much does your adult bearded dragon eat?

    My bearded dragon is a little more than a year old and has been fully grown for a couple months. She used to eat a lot more than she does now. I know adults don't eat as much but I just wanted to make sure mine was normal. She eats around 30 reptiworms a day (every once in a while choosing not...

    Decided to sell roach colony. What do I do know?

    I am going to sell my roach colony I have had for a year because my bearded dragon lost interest and has fallen in love with reptiworms. I don't know how to go about selling it though. Any one have any ideas? I live in Michigan so it might be too cold to send them to people.

    Might sell roach colony.

    I've had a dubia colony for almost a year now and my bearded dragon who used to eat 30 a day hardly even looks at them now and prefers her reptiworms. So I was thinking about selling my colony but don't know how to go about it. How much should I sell it for? On craigslist? Does anyone have any...

    Isn't eating much at all, pinkish orange urate.. HELP

    My beardie Penny has stopped eating very much. She will occasionally eat a few roaches or reptiworms but she has been ignoring her salad and when she went to the bathroom today the urate was an orange color. She has a reptisun 10.0 and her temps are around 100 in the basking side. Other than...

    Decreased appetite, skips meals... Should I be concerned?

    My beardie, Penny, is a 10 month female that is around 19 inches. Lately she has stopped eating as much as she usually does. I give her reptiworms and collards in the morning and dubia roaches for dinner. She used to never miss a meal and lately she has been eating randomly. Some days she will...

    Beardie suddenly not eating much...

    I switched tanks for my Bearded Dragon, Penny, about a month ago and just 3 days ago she stopped eating. She has been hanging out a lot in her sand box (it is calcisand and I don't feed her in the tank) and in her cave. I thought it was just because she moved and felt safe hiding but now that is...

    What to use for flooring?

    I am getting a new viv setup and I want to use something other than paper towel but I feel like tile would be to hard for them to walk on. What is the best flooring option?

    Switching from frozen to fresh veggies

    Hey I want to switch from frozen veggies to fresh but I can't find any organic greens that the beadies can eat (collards, mustard, etc). I know frozen veggies aren't the best option but is it better than using fresh greens that probably have pesticides?

    Can an enclosure be too big?

    I am looking to get a new enclosure soon for my bearded dragon. I currently have a 40 gallon for my 6 month old and she is growing fast so I have been looking for a new one. I have found some great deals and I know 55 gallon should be the minimum for an adult but is there a maximum? I have found...

    My bearded dragon keeps digging?

    I have noticed this past week my 6 month old female bearded dragon, Penny, has been going into her cave after she eats and I can't see but it sounds like she is digging. She never goes in her cave to begin with so its weird. I know some females do this if they are going to lay eggs but isn't she...

    Outdoor enclosure ideas?

    I took my dragon Penny outside yesterday for her first time ever. BAD IDEA. She darted and almost ran an entire block into a busy street before I could catch her, needless to say after that horrifying experience I want to be able to take Penny out but I need perimeters. I don't know so much if I...

    My dubia's aren't eating...

    So I just got my shipments of dubias around 2 weeks ago and have 650 of mixed roaches. I am nervous because they don't really seem to be eating much. I have a heating pad under them and every once in a while my space heater is pointing towards them. I have tried oatmeal, oranges, bananas, fish...

    What do you dubias like to eat most?

    I just started my colony and have been trying some different foods out. They went crazy for oranges and hard boiled eggs but some stuff they won't touch. What do yours like the best? How often do I switch out the food?

    How can I be sure a CHE wouldn't melt my dubia container?

    I want to get a CHE because I think it would be better for my dubia's than a heating pad but I am afraid my plastic will melt. What watt should I get? Any suggestions?

    Is it true the water crystals with calcium kill dubia?

    I heard that the water crystals with calcium can be bad for and kill dubia roaches, is this true? I have fluker's quenchers that I have been using but now I am afraid it can damage them.

    Just got Dubias... Thought they were odorless?

    I just started my dubia roach colony about 2 weeks ago and have about 650 mixed. I could smell an odd smell so I switched out the food, thought maybe it was that but its not. I even changed the type of food I put in and have the same smell so I don't think its associated. Anyway its not a...
