So my friend insisted getting a bearded dragon yet decides shes NOT going to do insects. She came to me for all the other help since I own bearded dragons, but refuses to do the insect thing as I said as they freak her out. I tried explaining the NEED for them, and all the pros/cons of all the...

I'm confused at what my female dragon is trying to do for the past 1-2 months. She keeps going away from her basking spots, and hiding under the paper towels (what I have as substrate for now till I build a custom "false rock" enclosure). I did have her with a male, but took it as a possible...

#1 For those who have bred them, how would you rate your experience (mainly difficulty, and continuing a colony) with them? #2 I'm getting mixed views on searches on whether they can be a staple or not so I'd like an answer to this for sure. #3 What IS the artificial silk worm chow? Whats so...

I know you're suppose to clean enclosure and items inside with a mixture of (1 part to 10 right?) bleach and water, and then rinse till you can't smell the bleach anymore. Well what about large enclosures? I have a 40 gallon breeder aquarium, and even though I myself can pick it up and handle...

So I wanted to share my experience of Great Lake Hornworm (http://www.greatlakeshornworm.com/) and the hornworms I ordered from them. I initially ordered 50 eggs from them. He forgot the lids for cups, but sent out some new ones asap (in the meantime I did what they recommend and put paper...

I need to know a few things to help with the design of my false rock enclosure I'm planning on building as I bought the supplies yesterday. - How "thick" do full grown beardies get? As I want to know how far to design the basking platform from the lights as I read that you shouldn't let...

As a holiday gift to my spoiled beardies (lol) I ordered 50 hornworm eggs from Great Lake Hornworms. Has anyone messed with hornworms before and care to share experience? How long did it take for them to hatch? Thanks!

Thought I'd share my experience with Grubco and their fly larvae. They come in a clear shallow plastic container with what appeared like something similar to sawdust as packing. Upon e-mailing them they said it was food grade wheat bran that is safe if our beloved pets accidentally eat some of...

I have a male beardie that was hatched July 7th. I'll get an exact measurement later, but he is around 8" I'm guessing and small overall. I just got another beardie, a female, and she was hatched a little over a month later (August 15th) and is 10.5" and bigger! Do some beardies just grow at...

I want to make one of those complete "fake rock" setups in my beardies tank, and want it to be waterproof for cleaning/durability reasons. Plus I kinda want to do something for my fish tank...so I would need it to be waterproof.

Today while randomly checking on my bearded dragons I noticed that my oldest one Athena mysteriously passed away :( for some reason. I don't know what could have caused it. I bought her back in September from a Petco. Everything seemed fine. Supplied her with greens everyday, dusted her fly...

Can someone give approximate lengths of beardies on age or vice versa? I don't know the exact age of one of my beardies that I got from Petco and wondering what classifies as a baby, juvenile, and adult. Thanks

Since I got my female beardie a little over 2 months ago she has become more and more aggressive. It's gone from always running away from me, small mouth gaping but stopping once I get ahold of her, full blown mouth gaping but not attempting to bite me (I accidentally had my had still close to...

How have they held up to the heat of the lamps, cleaning, and any other wear and tear???

What is the most safe and best method for going about setting up several appliances? Basically I have 3 bulbs with each respective enclosure, heat, UVB, and a third for eventually a CHE when temps go below 65. I basically want to setup a timer for the heat & UVB to turn on/off a certain...

Not talking about those pellets and related products (although could those too?), but what about making your own "mash" by throwing in sufficient foods (including some type of safe protein source) in a blender and making pretty much like baby food substance for the beardies to eat? Along with...

I find it really vague with info like "let them eat as many crickets as they want in 10-15 minutes" for example and so on for food consumption of beardies. Why isn't there a guideline of say: X amount of grams of protein for a juvenile (and whatever for adult) X amount of grams of veggies...

I always thought bearded dragons were just the normal brownish tan color you see at the typical chain pet stores until I started looking around on the internet about info on them for when I went to purchase my 2 beardies. Could someone give a detailed explanation of this "breeder lingo" on the...

Pretty new with BD's (have had two females for about 2 weeks). So I have a few questions if you don't mind answering all or some. #1) Are multi's (herpivite?) NEEDED??? I've found some mixed messages on the research I've read so I'd like a definite answer. How often should it be used and...

Hey just thought I'd say hi! I'm Josh and I recently got back in the reptile game with two bearded dragons (I owned several reptiles as a teenager such as iguanas, geckos, anoles, turtles, and snakes). I decided to go with bearded dragons as they look so cool and seem more manageable as far as...
