Some of you know Ember - she's a sweet approximately 3 month old dragon I received from Rea (evanescent) and is missing her right arm. She's been doing great, but I've noticed some odd swelling on her back legs. I'm going to get her into the vet this week, but I'm not sure when based on my...

I just got back the blood results from my vet. As a precaution I had both Dresden and Nezzie tested or adenovirus. Nezzie is negative however Dresden received positive results. I know he can have a normal, health life but I'm worried. I don't want Nezzie to get it and Ember is supposed to be...

With the addition of Ember in the next few weeks (whenever she is ready to ship, and Rea knows when that will be :)), I decided that I needed some more space in the reptile side of my room. Dresden is getting bigger and I know he'll soon be cramped in his 40B, and Nezzie is in a 4x2 glass...

The kids went and got their fecals today and the results were less than impressive. Between the two of them we have *drum roll please* Trichomonas, Hexamita, Balantidium, Giarda, and Isospora UG! They have been prescribed Panacur (100mg/ml) Ponazuril (150mg/ml), Metronidazole (100mg/ml), and...

I have a baby beardie, Doyle, who is about 4 months old. I know the feeling of eating you out of your pocket book. I purchased dubia roaches. He LOVES them, and I'm hoping to start a colony so I don't have to pay so much for them. They are more nutritious than crickets, don't smell, and can...

I couldn't help myself with the title of this thread. It makes me smile! The Dresden Files are some of my favorite fantasy books about a magician/warlock detective in Chicago. I love them and the name, so my new beardie baby is now Dresden. He will soon have a brother whom I am adopting this...

This is my new man. According to the breeder "He's an incredible eater and is growing fast. His genetics are Sandfire/Blood/OGG X Citrus/Snow/Aborigine Red and he's apx. 9.5" in length." I will arrange to have him shipped and delivered next week after I get back from camping. I know Doyle just...

Hi everyone! As a new beardie owner, and a sick one no less, I'm wondering what product(s) are best to use in his viv and decor. I've got paper towels down right now, but he has had loose stools so I've had to clean his basking rock and the bottom of his viv a bit. I want something that will...

I'm posting this because I recently acquired Doyle and needed to get a decent set up for him quickly. I hadn't really planned on obtaining a dragon when I found him on Craigslist, so it was a day's scramble to get him set up properly. After speaking with my vet, and doing some research of my...

I'm just about to rescue/adopt my first beardie. His current viv is inappropriate in a lot of ways, and I'm working on getting him a new set up. I've gone to the store and gotten a few craft items so I can start making him a more entertaining viv. I've seen several pictures where people have...

This is my new beardie Doyle - I pick him up on Saturday. I'm curious what is wrong with his eye. I really can't afford a vet visit right now as I'm having to pay to get his viv all set up (the current set up I'm getting with him is poor at best). I'm adopting him from a family that doesn't...

Hello! I recently agreed to adopt a 3 year old male beardie. His current mom just doesn't have enough time for him with her growing family. I'm getting him plus a 75 gallon tank set up and bringing him home on Saturday morning. He seems to have been very well cared for aside from being a...

Hello! My name is Maggie and I'm new to the beardie world. My roommate has 3 box turtles that I've more-or-less adopted, and I have 3 cats. The more time I spend with herps the more I am loving them. I've been looking at possibly getting a beardie after finding out just how wonderful they...
