O.k so no vomiting or poo's since, have brought her out of her new viv for a cuddle and she seems quite perky, beard not as black as it was and she is as active as usual. I had fed her around 2 hours before I moved her, her temps in her old viv were 105 basking, 90 warm side and 85 cool and...

Thanks Ash, I was guessing too that it shouldn't really matter what bulb you use just as long as the temps are right and it's safe :D

Hi I need urgent advice, Bertha my female, 21 month old beardie is vomiting! I fed her this morning and she ate around 20 brown crickets and a little greens, I decided that today was the day to transfer her to her new viv (After setting up and stabilizing the temps, lighting etc). After the...

Hello again, I'm in need of some advice on basking lamps. I'm setting up a new 48" tank (all glass) and am confused as to what is the best type of basking lamp to use, In my other viv I have ceramic but being on a budget (for now) I wonder how well do other types perform? Would love to have your...

Have had Bertha a good few months now but despite trying baths and different foods have never managed to get her to poop more than once a week which has always worried me but finally after reading on here to try and massage her tummy in the bath hey presto 2 hours later a nice big poop!!!! Will...

I can't believe I have missed something so stupid! As I am waiting on delivery of a new vivarium for baby Zebedee, I had no other option but to put her (segregated) in with my adult Bertha but the way I have done it is obviously blocking the best of the light from him/her! Problem solved, I...

Thanks wesozzy, I wouldn't normally flip her over I just panicked and thought she was dead, I really hope your right and that she's just sleepy :D

Hi all, am very worried about Zebedie, my 16 week old beardie, he/she was bright as a button yesterday, ate like a horse and was full of energy as usual but today is very quiet, all he/she wants to do is sleep, refusing food and the only reaction I can get is if I flip her over onto her back...

Just wanted to give a huge thank you to everyone who has given me advice and made me feel welcome since I joined as a very new and panicked beardie mum! Too many names to mention but special thanks to Slave2Scarlett, AHBD and Livey for your invaluable advice and taking the time to help me out...

Thanks ever so much guys, you really helped me out there. So collard is spring green lol Saw it in the supermarket today and left it on the shelf lol will get some next time, did pick up some Kale and grabbed some dandelion greens too, I remember about the meal worms now, I did feed them To...

O.k I'm very confused on the whole curly kale issue, I was thrown in at the deep end as a beardie owner so have done a LOT of research on different sites, almost every site is telling me that curly Kale and meal worms are fine to feed but others here recommending I don't, have no idea what...

Will take your advice on the Kale, am in the UK and cant say I've ever heard of collard, mustard greens maybe but cant say I've seen them for sale anywhere, dandilion greens are plentiful in my area thankfully. How would I prepare the squash ready for baby to eat? Thanks guys :D P.S why is...

Introducing 12 week old Zebedee, a real sweetie. Am hoping he's a male (to hope to atemp to breed) but love him to bits what ever he turns out to be. Will keep my blog updated with his/her progress :D

Hi again, yet another question for you (I've tried researching first but no joy). Just want to know about making sure my baby 12 week old is getting enough water, I've been hand feeding curly kale dipped in water first and feed him until he wants no more, will this be enough liquid for him, he...

Thanks for the advice guys, I now have the special dimmer to regulate the temps, much better :D

Am I doing this right, if I want to add a photo to a post do I just copy and paste the address from my photo bucket onto the end of the post? Thanks x

Hi all this is the latest addition to my little family, 12 week old Zebedee (named after the character from the magic roundabout), Have had a total disaster though today, brought him/her home to find the uv bulb flickering in the viv, switched it off then tried to switch it back on again but...

Wow, thank you, I'm so glad I asked now! Last thing I want to do is frustrate my adult and scare the baby! Not sure what to do now as I only have the one vivarium! I know this is probably a really stupid question and think I already know the answer but could the baby be kept (for a week or 2) in...

Hi folks, I have just put my name down for a new baby beardie (12 weeks old), as a newish owner of my 18 month old female I'm still quite new to all things dragon so really need advice on caring for a baby. I want to keep both in the same house but obviously know that the baby has a lot of...

Hi all, just bought a digital thermometer to check my beardies enclosure and its registering at 101 basking end but 97 cool side and its on the lowest setting! The ceramic heat lamp I use is 100w should I opt for a lower wattage and if so which one? Thanks for any advice :D
