    Bearded Dragon With Mites

    Huh, that is interesting. I wonder if it takes a little while to break down the scale. I will definitely try that test out myself, because you have sparked my interest as well :) Although, I need to get a fresh sample of his shed skin. Just out of curiosity, how old was the skin you used? And do...

    Bearded Dragon With Mites

    Actually, I would be very interested in hearing the results of that experiment as well. Someone else actually pointed out to me that even if it was fine for the beardies scales, it is probably going to sting something fierce if we used the peroxide, which was a good point. I'll keep you guys...

    Bearded Dragon With Mites

    Thank you for linking all that information! Very helpful for me and I appreciate it.

    Bearded Dragon puffing up

    Bearded Dragon puffing up

    Thank you for the response and dusting chart. I agree about under dusting. I'll make sure to mention that. What are symptoms of Hypervitaminosis A? I know symptoms if impaction, but not the vitamin A one. She also feeds the bearded dragon superworms, are those alright to feed? Besides crickets...

    Bearded Dragon puffing up

    Hi, I am posting on here about my friends bearded dragon. She got him recently off of craigslist and he seemed to be doing great until he started shedding and now has some attitude issues. He has been very angry and puffing up every time she goes to take him out of the tank to feed him, and even...
