    Halogen bulbs.

    Hey guys, trying to find something to use instead of my CHE to raise temps during the day on the cool side. The only bulbs I could find that weren't LED are these halogen bulbs. They're frosted which I have seen people recommended against through. Would this be worth trying or would it...

    Estinien is having trouble

    Before i start, his uvb was replaced around a month ago, it is a t8 and he can get within the required range of it. His basking temps I'm currently working on lowering because the hottest spot was around 120f, honestly have no idea how that happened as I had the hottest at 115 when I first set...

    Ponazuril dosage

    Estinien had been a bit lethargic the last few days (still eating and basking though) so I set up a vet appointment and fecal exam. The fecal exam came back positive for pinworms and coccidia, but the vet only wants to treat the coccidia as the pinworm count was not very high. He weights 346...

    Shelf liner question.

    After doing some research it seems like shelf liner is a good option for the bottom of Estiniens tank so I went out and found this. Is this what is recommended?

    Bath issue.

    Estinien had a soak earlier but decided to dunk his face in and take some pretty big drinks. As soon as I noticed, I pulled him out and lowered the water level. Slightly worried about aspiration. He isn't making any crakling noises while breathing and tipping him like a teapot didn't produce...

    Is this a healthy looking poop? (Warning, poop image)

    Everything is going great so far with Estinien but I noticed there's some brown with his urates when he pooped today and wanted some opinions.

    Suddenly very hyper and running around a lot.

    So sheila has always been...lazy to say the least and it's always worried me but lately (the past week or so) she's been acting very strange. She's usually awake before her lights are on and will go back and forth between her basking spot and the cool side quite often and just generally having...

    Sheila is acting strange again.

    Hello again, still having some troubles with my girl sheila. I'm thinking this time it may be too much calcium or maybe even dehydration even though she's getting a 20 minute bath every other day. What i'm worried about is that she isn't eating as much again and she's also only pooping maybe...

    Sheila is pooping out her worms and acting lethargic!

    Well I just had a fecal done and we got rid of her parasites! Sadly since we've started her on the repti-worms she's not been digesting them correctly, full worms in poo, still acting fairly lethargic and still hasn't shed. Not sure what to do here so I figured I would post and ask for help. I...

    Sheila's back/side issue.

    Been away for a while and Sheila has been doing great other than this strange thing going on with her back/side. Just trying to figure out what it might be, heard about fungal infection and i'm hoping that's not the case. Eating and pooping normally and the worms are gone!

    Possible Yellow fungus - nevermind it was yogurt

    Hi sorry to bother everyone but I noticed some orange-ish spots on Sheila's chin this morning and I wanted to know if I should worry or not. Went to the store and picked up tea tree oil and lamisil (couldn't find betadine so i'll have to look elsewhere for that) not sure if I should start...

    Quick question about UVB

    I just got my reptisun 10.0 installed yesterday and I've read that you need to make sure your beardie can get within 6-8 inches of it yet on the box itself it says that it's effective up to 20 inches. If I have cut a rectangle shape out of the metal mesh on top of the cage for the light to...

    Lethargic Beardy

    Recently I came home and my poor little beardy (Sheila) was on the bottom of her cage and her limbs were twitching (obvious sign of calcium deficiency or early MBD I know) I went out and picked up some calcium powder with D3 since i hadn't been giving her any calcium (I had been given bad...
