    Mad if home late?

    Normally someone gets home around 5pm. This week, I havent been home before8:30pm due to work and husband being out of town. When I come inside, daisy is sitting at the bottom of his viv and is black. I'm not sure if he's mad or just waiting on dinner (I'd bet dinner though)! Once I pick him up...

    Legs dragging!

    I fed Daisy his crickets not long ago. He chased them but just dragged his back legs behind him. I grabbed him and put him in a bath of warm water. I rubbed his belly and it felt kinda tight. He started puffing his beard (never did that before). He turned a pretty yellow color and started...

    Got superworms...now what??

    So far, I've only given my beardie crickets. The store was out of small ones but had some small superworms so I got those. They told me to keep the in the fridge? Is this correct? How many should I feed my baby? With crickets, I just give him as many as he'll eat in about 10 minutes, but I'm not...

    104 degrees or 110 degrees?

    Daisy has a rock structure and a hammock. If I put his heat bulb above his rock, the temp gets about 104 degrees. If I put it over his hammock, it gets 110ish. I'm having trouble finding a spot that gets him somewhere in between. Which would be better? My guesstimate is that Daisy is about 2...

    How to best use these vitamins?

    What's the best way to use these vitamins? I dust his crickets daily with the calcium powder and spray his breakfast & dinner salads a few times a week with the multivitamin. I used the calcium spray on his salads last week because he had his first shed and refused anything but salad. I wasn't...

    Pic-does this color mean he's unhappy?

    When I woke up this morning, Daisy was this color. I picked him up and he got a little lighter, but then turned dark again. Sorry, its kind of blurry.

    When will this shedding nightmare end?

    Our baby has been shedding all week. Ever since he's started shedding, he's done nothing but sleep! He basically only wakes to eat and poop (or to move to another sleeping spot). When will he be fun again???

    Only a desert theme?

    So I've got our baby's beardie all set up and of course, its a desert theme. Its big enough for a baby but will be too small when he grows, so I"ll need to make a new one at some point. I was wondering if the theme HAS to be desert. Will it freak them out if their enclosure does not represent...

    Playing with food?

    My baby is shedding so he's been acting super weird for days. He's eating better finally, so that's a plus. However, he sort of stalks after his crickets. He looks like he's moving in slow motion and creeps until he gets right up on them, then gobbles them up. Is he just having fun? What's his deal?

    Hello!

    Time to give my formal introduction! I'm new around here but my name is Erin. We got our baby beardie from a pet store 5 days ago so we're not exactly sure how old he is. He's a super sweet dragon and loves to be held. My four year old named him Daisy and she just loves him. He seems to be...

    Behavior when shedding?

    Daisy has been really lazy today. He snoozed through his morning feeding but did eventually eat his crickets. Then I left work so I'm not too sure what he did this afternoon. Hubby got home before me and said that Daisy had been sleeping until I got home. He didn't eat any crickets for dinner...

    At least someone eats the salad.....

    Daisy is having a lazy morning. He slept under his rock forever (even after his lights went on) and when he did finally wake up, he climbed up on his log and basked while he slept. I figured he'd perk up once I threw his crickets in, but no such luck. I guess he was too high up to notice them...

    Gaping is good, right?

    We just got baby beardie on Thursday. Yesterday, we re-did his viv because I didn't think he was getting close enough to the lights (he just had one log at the bottom...nothing to really climb up. Now he's got a rock structure with a bunch of different levels. For the first time today, I...

    Holding new baby

    Hello. We just got our baby beardie on Thursday. We've been taking it slow handling him but he does let us pick him up from time to time. After being held for a few minutes, he closes his eyes and appears to be sleeping. I was just wondering if this is okay or if he's exhibiting some type of...
