My dragon has developed a rather large, provably 2 quarters worth of area, gray spot. She has been with my mom for the last week and she says it started smaller and is growing. It doesn't look like shedding. The color is much different. More gray less pale. I am having to post from my...

I have a bag of guinea pig food that I have no use for. I was wondering if this would make a decent base for roach chow? It is Min 20% Protein, Min 4% Fat, Max 15% Fiber, and Min 150 mg/lb Asorbic Acid (Vitamin C). Would this be high enough protein?

I am about to move back to school and I finally have a house (not living on campus). This means I will be bringing my little (not so much anymore) girl with me. I will not have good access to crickets so I am looking at starting a turk colony. I have a few unanswered questions though. Any...

I have a 13 month old. I fed her wax worms on Tuesday as a treat (she usually gets them every 1-2 months). Today she pooped out undigested wax worms. There doesn't appear to be other undigested food (i.e. greens, squash, etc.), just the worms. Should I be concerned about this, or is this...

My dragon has been having large hard urates for a while. Since I am away at college I only see here ever 2 or 3 weeks and have yet to see what my mom was meaning when she said this. Today I saw and I truly don't think this is typical. She dropped a urate today that was almost a cm in diameter...

My beardie has been exhibiting some strange behavior recently. She has started glass dancing and digging at the corners of her cage. It varies, sometimes she acts like there is something outside the cage she wants, sometimes she acts like she is hunting crickets, even though there aren't any...

My dragon has been having issues with hard urates for a while and oftentimes will not poop unless she is given a bath. I have done some research and found that the problem is probably caused by dehydration. My question is how do I get her to intake more fluids? She normally eats greens...

So my bearded dragon hadn't pooped in over a day so I out her in the bath to help. she finally did poop but the white portion was huge and hard (over 2 in long and bigger around than a pencil). She is 34 weeks old and 19 in long. I am afraid that if I hadn't helped her she might not have been...

OK so I moved my dragon over to a tub in order to clean here cage and she was enjoying her morning salad so I moved it with her. I just went to pick her up though and she bearded me and opened her mouth, and there were tons of carrot in the back of her throat. I am afraid she has some stuck...

So I brought my bearded dragon outside today, something I do usually once a day when I can, and she freaked out! Usually she is content to just sit on my arm and bask in the natural sun, the only exception is occasionally she has gotten spooked by something and quickly runs up my arm to my...

OK I am soooooo tired!!!! Where can I get crickets from that will be reliable and consistent? I have tried PetCo, and they were good the first time, but the second order came in more then half dead (I am actually currently getting either a replacement or refund via their live chat). I have...

Ok so first of all I would like to tell everyone that Ghann's is not somewhere I would suggest ordering from. I got my replacement order today because the first order had only about 300 of the 2000 it was supposed to have. This order appeared to have 2000 but they were half dead! I would...

Ok so it's not like it is runny. It just looks different. It used to be one long piece and now it looks more like a pile. It doesn't seem much softer just looks different. I don't know what is wrong, if anything. Recent Changes: I added Zucchini and Yellow Squash That is really all I can...

Just wanted to share my opinion of Ghann's thus far. I got my first shipment of crickets from them today. It was supposed to be 2000 3/8" crickets. The packaging is very nice, and they even include egg crate however there were only about 200 live crickets and maybe 300 dead ones. Needless to...

OK so I just placed an order for new crickets, They should be here like tomorrow. In the mean time my mom brought home some super worms. I know that my girl isn't quite big enough to get superworms, but I had heard of people giving baby supers to younger dragons so I figure as long as she is...

I have always heard that I should allow my dragon to eat for 5 min so she gets enough and does not gorge herself. Well I have a question. I allow her to eat in a separate, small enclosure with no furniture or anything so she does not have to hunt down the crickets at all. She just kinda...

I have kept crickets in the past just fine in a tote that I have. I keep some paper towel tube and egg crate in there as well as a dish of flukers food and flukers water crystals. I keep this tote outside on my back porch and in the past have had little to no problems, possibly leaving one or...

Ok so I am going back to college this fall and I want to bring my beardie with me even though I am not supposed to have him in the dorms (they only allows fish and amphibians, dumb right?). But the only way they can catch me is during inspection and during that I will just cover the cage with a...

I found out I wasn't feeding my beardie enough, so I began feeding her more. I fed her as much as she seemed interested in 2 times a day and she usually ate about 10-12 crickets after eating a few bites of vegetables at each feeding. Today she didn't seem interested in eating really. I got...

I am using an old 55 gal fish tank as my viv and I am currently using the flouro fixture that came with it to provide the UVB. The problem is this lamp is a T12 fixture and all of the bulbs on the market that are designed for reptiles are T8. I currently have a bulb designed for home use that...
