    All my fault

    SO I am the person that is always talking about potty trained Dragons on here and how easy it is and how everyone should do it. All you have to do is put them on a schedule and stick to it and blah blah blah. And about how they dont like to be in the viv with poop and will meet you more than...

    Big Bertha, the Bedded Dragon

    Yes, you read that right. The Bedded Dragon. Yesterday was really hot here (106) so I stayed in and looked for a project. I decided to make Bert a bed like the ones sold by Lizard Luxuries. I had a piece of pink polar-tec fleece that I'd bought to make blankies for her, so that was what I...

    How much is enough?

    I recently adopted Big Bertha, a 19 in 680g girl. That is almost 1.5 pounds of Beardie! She's doing fine, but I have a question. This girl is ALWAYS hungry! I don't want to over feed her, but I certainly don't want to starve her, so tell me how much is enough. Am I feeding her too much? too...

    Big Bertha Update

    Ok, so I will admit, this girl is NOTHING like my poor sick old Lizzy. We have a new normal! Lizzy sat around and you had to beg him to eat, never really tried to escape from the play yard, didn't move too fast. He was like your 90 year old arthritic Grandpa, slow moving, never a problem. Bert...

    Big Bertha made it to St Louis MO!!!

    I picked the Large Lizard Lady up at Fedex at 08:05 this morning. When I opened the bag, she was still asleep, but woke up quickly. She is large and lovely! Really, 1.5 pounds of yellow Loveliness! :blob5: :blob5: Once awake, she was on the move! This girl moves a whole lot faster than my...

    Dumb question about Reptison 10.0 tubes

    I follow the guideline that you replace your Reptisun 10.0 tube every 6 months. I use a sharpie and write the date on the tube when I put it in service so I know how old they are. That being said, when I do a change, the tubes are still making light, it's just that we don't really know how much...

    Shipping an adult Beardie

    No emergency, but a medical question

    I got Lizzy in January from an owner that really did not give him the best of care. On sand, fed him lettuce and crickets, let him roam their house most of the time, no UVB. All the no nos. Like the 2nd day after we had him, he pooped in his viv and it was the most God awful smell you could...

    150 butterworms arrived today from Linda's!!! Lizzy snarfed 10 of them one right after the other and then went back to his nap. I wonder if he'll wake up tomorrow and think it was a really nice dream ? :mrgreen: I love, love, love butterworms and it's been awhile since we've had some. I like...

    Is this a burn?

    I think Lizzy has burned his tail, because he has these sore looking spots on it, but they are not open wounds, and I dont know of any trauma to the tail (like dropped viv furniture or anything).They are tender to the touch. I also noticed that in his basking spot it was getting really hot ( so...

    Tail necrosis?

    Awhile back I posted and asked for advice on a tail issue. The last 1.5 inches on my guy's tail is very dark, very dry -dead feeling. Like a stick. He is otherwise fine, but I was worried about tail rot or something. I was advised to soak him and look for retained shed. He bathes every day for...

    Funny sleeping position

    I came in tonight to find Lizz asleep in the funniest position - sitting up! He'd braced himself against his branch and was sort of sitting back on it, with his belly and his left hand touching the glass, but he was not trapped. When I woke him, I got the stink eye and he did move away from the...

    Sperm Plugs???

    I got my beardie at the beginning of January from a family that could no longer keep him. After reading about brummation in these forums, I believe that he's been in brummation for as long as I've had him. He eats every day and poops every day when he takes his soak in the bathtub, and seems...
