    Canceling Petco PALS

    Found this little guy at Petco today (sorry for the blurry picture): The tail has no fat, and his legs are literally bones. I canceled my Petco PALS membership and will no longer be supporting the store. I would rather buy from online dealers than continue to support such gross animal...

    Bearded Dragon Escape

    Decided to put my beardie in the backyard today. Set her up in the plastic bin like always, but the wind must've knocked it over. When I went back to bring her in, she was gone. Searched for about 2 hours and couldn't find her. Put up a few flyers and made a Craigslist ad, but no word. Looks...

    Receiving a Beardie in the Mail

    I've got several dragons, but I bought all of them in person. My first shipped dragon arrives tomorrow, and I was wondering if there are any special directions for that. For instance, my Uromastyx got a quick bath before he went into his enclosure. Any ideas / tips? Thanks!

    Lumps Under Legs

    Noticed some lumps under my 9-month old male bearded dragon's legs today. The lumps are on both back legs, but they aren't showing up anywhere else on his underside. Have other owners encountered anything like this? He isn't acting different and doesn't appear to be in discomfort. Thanks...

    Air vs Surface Temperature

    I'm trying to figure something out. For the cool side of my bearded dragons' cages, should I be aiming for 80's (Fahrenheit) in the air? Or should I try to make sure that all of the surface temps are in the 80's as well? It makes sense that a basking spot would need to have a surface temp of...

    New Uro - Pistachio

    Ordered a Moroccan Uromastyx from Deer Fern Farms a couple weeks ago. He's actually grown a bit since delivery. Enjoy!

    Plant Placement

    I plan on getting a couple of plants to dress up my new enclosures. At 5' long, they look sort of drab. I've already researched what plants are safe, etc., but I was wondering how others actually put plants in the enclosures? So far, the only plan is to cut a hole into driftwood that a small...

    Finished my Stackers!

    Decided to build cages that would stack over the winter break. The outer dimensions are 60" x 20" x 20". I'm really pleased with the way they came out and the dragons don't seem to mind them either. Let me know if you've got any questions!

    Flinging Poop

    This is getting ridiculous. If I don't wake up at the crack of dawn to give my dragon a bath (she'll poop there), she poops in the cage and flings it everywhere. For the past week I've had to literally bathe her with a toothbrush every day. I even found poop on the top screen today. Any...

    Shindy the Leucistic

    Haven't had a good chance to take pictures, mostly because the girl's been so stressed out about enclosure changes. I bought her a day after she arrived at the local pet store...so let's see...she was moved to the pet store, then to my home, then to her new cage. I think her stress was...

    Say hey to Husky!

    Been grabbing a lot of information from the site, so finally decided to sign up. Just purchased my second bearded dragon, but Husky's my first! He'll be 6 months old at the end of this month. He's quite a eater, and, as I just found out, quite a swimmer! Enjoy the pics!

    Temporary Plastic Enclosure

    Just purchased a young adult leucistic over the weekend and I'm currently trying to figure out a cage situation for her. She's currently in a 20gal, but it's really not big enough for her. I'm going to be building custom enclosures over the coming semester break (December-January) and do not...
