So I just moved to Colorado and the only thing I have to keep my apartment cool is a swamp cooler, which increases humidity like crazy. Humidity is standing around 60%! All my other reptiles and arachnids are enjoying this, however, Tiberius is not. I noticed my beardie has a droopy/swollen eye...

So, ever since I moved my adult female beardie off sand, she has been sort of depressed. On sand, she was everywhere, excited for her breakfast every morning and moving around and generally doing things a healthy beardie would be doing. Now she is off sand and has been for about a year and a...

I just got a new Reptisun 10.0 from Petco because it was on sale. I plug it in and it works just fine. However, after about 15 minutes it "flickers". Not on and off, but almost a strobe effect? My other tubes have not done this. Does this mean it is bad?

Hey there, you guys can just call me Kat. c: I have a lot of photos for you all and some of them include snakes and other reptiles! But mostly photos of my bearded dragon, Tiberius. Tiberius is a LADY dragon, which I did not know until earlier this year and I've already had her for two years...

I normally take my bearded dragon into my bathroom and close the door when I want to let her run around. But the bathroom floor is pretty cold and she doesn't usually like it. My parents would KILL me if she pooed on the carpet, especially since we have white carpet. But I really want to let her...

Is it okay to give bearded dragons baby food as a treat every now and then? As long as the only ingredient is the fruit or veggie? I want to give Tibs a little treat now and again and I've heard they like baby food, but wasn't sure if it was okay. Also, does anyone have a good idea on how to...

Tiberius has been rather stubborn lately. The first light I got him, he loved. He basked in it all the time. It was the Repti-sun 10. When it came time to replace it, I got the same brand. But suddenly, he started hiding from it all the time. He'd come out maybe 5 minutes to bask and then would...

Since I switched to paper towels, Tiberius has been antsy and wanting to dig a lot. He's shredding the paper towel substrate I use and it's rather hard to clean up. Can I make some sort of box for him to dig in? Like a shoebox with some sand in it? I just get worried about loose substrate and...

I'm making Tiberius a custom cage soon and I just need to know what kinds of things to stay away from. I'm planning on using wood, then just paper towels and tile for the flooring. A sliding glass door as well. I just don't know what kind of wood and sealant is safe to use! Any advice would be...

I live in a small town that doesn't really have any good organic stores. I have to drive two hours to get to the nearest place that sells decent greens at decent prices and that's getting expensive. So I was wondering, do any of you grow your own bearded dragon veggies? I've got a window well...

Tiberius has been with me for about a year now. I got him late September and he's been okay about eating and stuff. Lately he has been trying to dig into his paper towels, hide from his light, and doesn't eat as much as he usually does. He's not lethargic though. It's about that time that I need...

I was wondering what kinds of bulbs/tubes I can use. It is that time of year when I have to replace Tiberius' UVB light. The Reptisun 10 I tube I bought from pet mountain a while back, it looked fine, no cracks or anything. But Tiberius kept hiding from it and would not stop glass dancing until...

Tiberius has not been eating his greens lately, but only if I dust them with the calcium powder. He'll eat if there is no powder, but will not touch the greens if there is powder. I feed him collard and mustard greens daily and then I mix in some other veggies and fruits such as bell peppers...

I was going to take Tiberius on a little road trip to petco to get some food and when I put him in the car and started driving, he started heaving like he was going to puke. When I stopped to make sure he was alright, he'd stop dry heaving. Is it possible he got car sick? He's back in his cage...

I'm making Tiberius a little multi-level hide. But I'm on a budget xD is it safe to use Hot glue and Duct tape and Cardboard in the enclosure? I was going to use shoe boxes, put them together with hot glue, then duct tape the bottoms so if he poops, the boxes won't become ruined. [if you can...

I was at Petco the other day and I was VERY worried about their bearded dragon babies since they are on calcium sand and they are being fed mealworms, they are also being fed iceburg lettuce what looks like they just got out of those salad packs you can buy at wal-mart. They have nearly constant...

Tiberius has been eating well lately, just not... pooping every day/every other day. I give him collard greens with kale every once in a while with squash too. He gets super worms, but I'm going to try and go to silkworms and those big green caterpillars [forgot their names xD;] from Mulberry...

I realized that Tiberius misses his sand very badly, he'll randomly try to dig though the paper towels covering his enclosure and seems very sad when I stop him from shredding the paper. Does anyone have an idea for a dig box that I could give him? I can't use any substrate with grain, since I...

Ugh, I moved my super worm cage a few days ago and when I went to go get some for Tiberius, there were mites EVERYWHERE. The container was literally foggy with them. Surprisingly, there are no mites anywhere else in the room, they were localized to the container and the stand that it was on. I...
