Hi, I have to go away for a week on the 11th May. My brother has said he can look after my Beardie for the week , but since he last looked after him, Freckles has got a new house - his viv has a cabinet attached so whereas in previous years my brother has taken the viv this year he can't. SO, as...

Please can someone list for me the signs & symptons of Impaction.... I'm not after 'links' I want to hear 'real life' symptons that people on here have experienced, I have googled it, and read some articles but need a bit more clarification which I feel would be better coming form someone who...

Last night I noticed my beardie (Freckles) wasn't moving right, he was carrying himself very low to the floor and was unusually quiet. Prior to this he had been 'running' around (I've mentioned it before where if you're in the room he will run around the viv, climb the walls, run along the...

Hi, me again (well you lot are so helpful!!!! :notworthy: ) Freckles has woken from his brumnation, full of beans. He is a lot friendlier before - he will sit on me for quite a while now!! He's still being picky with his food (he's a man!), and when offeed locusts will eat 1! (Before he'd eat...

Hi, my beardie is in 'brumation mode' at the moment. What happens with the lights? Do they have to stay on? If so can I get a lower wattage bulb? Can i not turn the heat lamp off and keep the UV on? He's in a 'house/hide' at the moment, so it's not as though he's getting the benefits...

I've been worried about my beardie for a few weeks now as he had a few 'off' days where he didn't particulary want to be handled, then he stopped eating and for the last couple of weeks just lays in the cooler end of his viv! I have asked for help on various forums to no avail, I then emailed a...
