    Limping on front leg for about a week now?

    So Scout, my 5yo male, seems to have developed a limp in his front right leg. He is favouring it, not putting his weight on it, and seems to have a harder time moving it. He can move it, but when he does, it's a bit slow and he puts no weight on it/doesn't grab onto me like he does with his...

    Goats Milk Soap for cleaning lizard?

    Hey everyone, quick question. My bearded dragons are known to get pretty messy, either from their salads or from their poo. Baby dragon has yet to learn that poo is bad and likes to step or sit her tail in it, and Scout likes to go poo in the bath tub and then swim right through it while he's...

    Isopod/roly poly bugs as cleaners for dubia

    So I've caught some isopods/pill bugs and want to use them for cleaner bugs. Problem is, I have 3 of the ones that roll up into a ball (1 of which I know is female, unsure of the others) and the rest look just like them, stone grey, just flatter and don't roll up, but still isopods. Can I use...

    Are dubia roaches much more filling than crickets?

    Hey everyone =) On Dec 20 I bought a baby dragon... he's about 3 months old I estimate and a little over 8 inches long. Now the last time I had a baby dragon was in 2010, when Scout was a wee lad. And when he was that young, he was eating anywhere from 50-100 tiny crickets a day between 2-3...

    I think it's a boy, but another opinion would be nice!

    I'm impatient, I know, and my dragon Maesie (Maes, if it's a boy), is only 8 inches long and about 3 months. I've had it for 2 weeks and it's looked like a girl, which was expected, and my gut was telling me girl, but as it gets bigger, it's looking more boyish! Is that a divot I see above the...

    Is he overweight?(Pics)

    Pouty-Scouty sure isn't on the leaner side when it comes to bearded dragons, but I wonder if he is a little TOO heavy? I weighed and measured him today and he is 17 3/4 inches long nose to tail(no nip in tail, so that's his full length), and 565 grams! He's also 4.5 years old. I feed him daily...

    Scout broke a toe I think D=

    So I was holding Scout today and then noticed his little toe on one of his feet was red under the scales and was swollen (just the toe is swollen) and it is bending sideways in a way it shouldn't. I moved it 'in place' and there's definitely a break in his toe bone. I didn't get a pic of the...

    Maesie: Growing up =)

    Hello everyone! I figured while I did introduce Maesie over in the intro forums, here would be a good place to post about her and her milestones and growing up. I bought Maesie at a mall petstore on December 20th(Winter Solstice Eve!), and couldn't be happier with her! Basically I'll post a...

    Meet my third baby!

    So after two years of waiting for the right time to get another dragon, the stars have FINALLY aligned and allowed me to bring home this little dude today: I got him from a small petstore in the mall >,> Not everyone's first choice I know, but I couldn't pass him up! Along with being...

    Sorting out tiny dubia roaches?

    Hey there. So I'm planning on getting a baby beardie here soon (MAYBE tomorrow depending on how things go...) and I've got a very plentiful dubia roach colony which will feed the baby. I might also pick up some calciworms too just for variation. I'm just wondering if there's an easier way to...

    It's been awhile since I've had a youngster....

    Hey everyone =) It's been a long time since I've posted on here! I used to frequent here often, but lately not so much. My sister and I both still have our dragons, Riza(my sister's female dragon), and Scout (my boy <3) and they are doing well! Riza's been brumating since August though haha...

    About how many dubias will a baby dragon eat?

    Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, I'm not really sure where to put it So I'm considering getting another bearded dragon this January(we have 2 adults right now) and it's been since I got Scout in August of 2010 that I had a baby dragon since we got Riza as an adult, and I know when I had him...

    Tough love <3

    Soo. Scout. That pesky 28 month old male bearded dragon just won't eat his greens!! He gave up brumating a month ago and has been romping about outside or inside his cage sportin' a blackbeard. I swear my male gecko woke up Scout and told him it was time for Spring just as a sick joke. xD...

    Grain Mites with my beetles?

    So yeah, long story short, I was stupid and decided not to microwave my grains(oats, wheat germ) before putting them in my superworm beetle's new cage, and there are what I assume to be grain mites(tiny, look like white specs of dust that move around slowly) around there, including in some grain...

    Clover??

    I took Scout outside this morning before giving him his salad and while we were sitting outside, he jumped off my leg and was walking around in the grass and just sat there. Then a few minutes later, he started eating clover!! The small leaf clover, not the clover with huge leaves that I like to...

    Vacationing with dragons?

    Just a quick question, we might be taking our annual trip to the Oregon Coast sometime this summer and we have a lot of pets, as you can see in my signature.... But the rest of the animals aren't much of an issue, but what about traveling with dragons? I don't really know anyone who could come...

    When does breeding season end?

    Question in the title! Just curious because my boy Scout(lol Boyscout) is going crazy with blackbearding/bobbing/wanting a girlfriend, ect and he's on a hunger strike due to breeding season I assume. He's healthy and not losing any weight, so I'm not worried, I've gotten him to eat a few...

    When to start him back up on live food?

    Alright, to go back a bit, Scout and Riza have been out of brumation for awhile now, and my sis and I are currently offering them salads with mustard greens, collard greens, acorn squash, and occasionally some fruit n veggies. ^^ Neither of them are really eating them that much right...

    Healthy Weight? =D

    Hello! I've not been on in age. -_- But I've not really had much reason to. Dragon's been brumating and all that fun stuff, but they're finally out. And Riza's never been more of a spoiled brat.(My sister, her owner, spoils this dragon rotten. I've never seen a needier/brattier dragon.... Well...

    Just set up a cricket-breeding bin, quick question

    I set up a breeding bin because I have crickets(bought 50 large ones the other day from the petstore for my geckos) and I was bored. XD So after reading on one site what I'm supposed to do, I put all my crix from my large kritter keeper to a rubbermaid bin(big blue one), put in their dish of...
