Yellow fungus? by katiebread, on Flickr Just noticed this on my 9ish year old boy today where his leg meets his body He has a 60 gallon tank, Mercury vaper bulb, hot spot around 100 degrees Fahrenheit, eats dusted super worms and I've given up on salads. He ate 10 worms today for the first...

Clovis was getting some UVB time outside and decided to snack on a dead leaf and big honking pale grasshopper with what looked like oversized floppy wings. We are visiting my in-laws in the woods of rural central Virginia, and they do not use pesticides or weed killer. Clovis scraped her mouth...

Mad Hatter, Beardie Style by katiebread, on Flickr I have an idea for a photoshoot with this hat involving lots of teacups and wormies. We're all mad here! EDIT: I actually did it! See pics on the next page or two. :) Red hat by katiebread, on Flickr "You woke me up for THIS?" This hat was...

Our Clovis is a little spiky snugglebutt and loves to snooze on me. Right now we do not have the money or the space to devote to another beardie, but for those who are fortunate enough to have more than one spiky baby, how do you give everyone floor and snuggle time without fights?

When I am holding my adult female Clovis she will smack her lips every once in a while. She is a big licker so I never thought much about it, but a minute ago she was on my leg and I felt her body tense like a person's might when they were about to hiccup, and then she smacked her lips. Her...

Mad Hatter, Beardie Style by katiebread, on Flickr A beardie would pay for a hat in crickets, of course! Red hat by katiebread, on Flickr This one was kind of a fail. I think hot glue would work better than tacky glue. Plus, I think this felt is thinner than the other two, so maybe that's...

Clovis hates her harness. She beards and sulks and tries to rub it off. I think she feels like it restricts her movement. I want to have lots of outside time with her this summer, but the harness rage is thwarting my plans. Should I keep at it and hope she gets used to it? Make the holes...

We had a long strip of Velcro that was working for the 36 inch UVB tube but after we took the light down to change the bulb the fixture started gradually falling down. We tried more Velcro, a couple of small squares, and it fell. Duct tape is not working either. I just took it down because I...

Clovis' usual eating habits were to eat the squash off of his salads in the morning (and thus get some vitamin pellets) and then scarf as many Reptiworms as I would give him in 10 minutes in the evenings. I'm not sure how old he is but he's about 15 inches long, so he's at least a juvie. Then...

First, the basic stats: Name: Clovis Age: Unknown. Sex: Unable to determine for sure, believe he is a male Length: 15 inches Weight: Between 250-300 gram Tank: 3 feet 3 inches long, 1 foot 3 inches wide, 1 foot 4 inches tall Objects in tank: Clovis has a PVP pipe joint wrapped in...

I am thinking about cutting back on Clovis' bugs to try and encourage him to eat more salad. I don't want to keep feeding him as though he is a juvie throughout his adulthood, but since I don't know his hatch date, adulthood could well be right now. :? He went to the vet for parasites earlier...

I am a speech therapist at two different middle schools in our county. Many of my students have learning difficulties as well as speech and language difficulties, and some of them have more involved disabilities such as cerebral palsy and Down syndrome. I've told my students about my beardie...

Our beardie, Clovis, recently got diagnosed with flagellates and pinworms. He's flagellate-free and pinworm-reduced, so another 2 courses of Panacur and he should be set! The vet said that we needed to bleach his cage daily, and to remove the wooden hide because he poops on everything and the...

Zee Looking At Bearded Dragon by katiebread, on Flickr I went to the zoo with my now-husband back in March, before I was interested in beardies as pets. I was going through my Flickr account deleting photos to make room for Clovis pictures, and lo and behold I had a picture labeled as "Zee...

I know beardies should be able to get within 6-8 inches of their UVB lights. I have a Reptisun 10.0 in an aquarium hood, and when he's on his stick basking he's within 6-8 inches of the hood, but he's not directly under it. His heat lamp and UVB light are parallel to each other because the UVB...

We've had our dragon, Clovis, for a little over a week. He's 13 inches long and has been getting kale, collards, squash (loves his spaghetti squash, good boy), carrots, and extra-small phoenix worms. The extra-smalls are tiny; my pinky nail trimmings are longer than them. We originally got...

We have medium phoenix worms on order but I don't think they'll arrive before we leave on Wednesday, and I only have one container of extra-smalls left. :/ Clovis is such a fattie! He's a juvenile, about 13 inches long, and he eats his kale like a champ. Our last beardie was a baby, and we...
