I got the surprise of my life this morning. We got our new beardie along with 100 turkish roaches at a reptile expo about a month ago. I dumped some of the small ones in with our new guy and he was interested the first feeding but ignored them from then on. I thought I had removed all the...

Let me start by saying this is just an fyi kind of deal. I don't want to offend anyone or make anyone mad, but I just want to inform you so maybe it might help someone in the future. This is a herp vet observed situation that I thought I would share with you. After a very horrible start with...

We have had our new beardie for about a month. The first two weeks we had to medicate him for URI and coccida. He has seemed ok the entire time we have had him. He did not seem to mind being held and he likes to cuddle in the evenings before bed. He has been eating feeders from my hand...

My 5 month old beardie will eat only one feeder at a time. He will act like he is starving but once he gets what ever I am feeding him that is it. I have to feed him multiple times per day. He is not gaining any weight either. What can I do to get him to eat more than one at a time. I know he...

Why would an otherwise healthy dragon vomit. He at a big breakfast, but no more than usual. He suddenly vomited his enitre meal. I did pick through it (yuck) to see if there was a foreign object in it, but it was all collards and butter worms. I have given him some probiotic to make his tummy...

My 4 month old male has not pooped in 5 days. I have been giving him daily baths and massaging his belly which is still soft, but it is getting bigger by the day and I am worried about him not pooping. He has not really been eating much since his last giant poop mostly greens and a few butter...

Ok I got a 4 month old leatherback male from the last reptile show. We have had him for about two weeks. When we first brought him home he was really dark with stress, but he went back to his normal color pretty quickly. Well now he is dark again and so is my other dragon who is almost 11...

I bought turkish roaches at the reptile show and my new baby loves them. I would like to get dubia instead as I can get greater numbers for less when I order. I was wondering if I could house them together until he eats all the turkish ones?

Ok I bought a 4 month old leatherback at the reptile show from a reputible breeder. When we got him home he started making noises like a croak. I contacted the breeder right away who said he was healthy before the show. I was finally able to see the vet today who diagnosed an URI. He was put...

If I dont care if they breed or not can I just leave them at room temp? Also which are the easier ones to care for dubia or turkish roaches? Thanks!

Does anyone have plans they would be willing to share for a bouble decker or stacked viv. I now have a second baby and I need to rethink the enclosure situation. Thanks

I have a 4 month old. I was wondering how long do I feed twice per day?

I have a brand new 4 month old male beardie that has been puffing up alot and hissing, but he is also making a noise almost like a frog would make and a little pffft sound after he blows up his throat then gaping. I know he is very little and scared, but my other beardie never has made any...

We just got a beardie from Atlanta Bearded Dragons who is 4 months old. He is making this noise that sounds like a zipper going up really fast. He did it while he was on my chest and it scared the crap out of me. I have never heard that kind of sound from our other beardie. He does not have...

Ok my 10 month old has never ever black bearded. Tonight he black bearded really dark black while my son whas holding him. He went back to normal when I picked him up and put him on my chest. Any ideas? My son is upset because he thinks our beardie doesn't like him or he hurt him in some way.

Well I guess beardies are like Pringles. I went to the reptile show today with my family and we just couldn't resist this little guy. He is a very feisty 4 month old leatherback. He has really pretty markings. So far he is trying to act like he is a huge mean dragon. He actually hissed at me...

I have been searching to find out two things reguarding pesticides. First, how long does it take for something like Ortho Bug B Gone to lose toxicity. We got new carpet for my office last spring and it was infested with carpet beetles. I sprayed around the edges to help get rid of them. I...

Ok I know people will have a lot of comments on what I am about to say, but let me just preface this by saying my vets (husband and wife) have had 20 years experience with herps and have kept beardies in the past. They have even bred a pair just so they could help their patients who have...

Here are some new photos of Quigley who is doing great and is just as sweet as can be. I am a very lucky lizard mama. Don't I look fierce. He he is watching a naked super in his salad as if it was the most interesting thing he had ever seen. Look at the new hammoc my mom made me! One of...

I noticed this morning when my beardie was yawning that on the right side bottom of his mouth he has a gray line of teeth. The rest are pearly white. I got a pic but have to go to work. Is it normal to have discoloration in some teeth or should I see the vet?
