    ramming head into cage for hours

    About a week ago after i moved. My beardie Bambam started clawing and running into the left side of his cage for hours at a time. It looks like he wants to escape. Ive tried everything in attempts to get him to stop. I take him out 2 times a day for an hour each time, feed him fresh greens...

    Stinky new Enclosure, any suggestions?

    I just finished a new enclosure for my two baby beardies. It is very large about 4x3x2, well ventilated, sliding glass doors, cement structures to climb on, and no sand (using paper towels until older). The problem is that it is so large that the only place i have space for it is in my living...

    two new little ones

    Unfortunately this past Christmas we lost little stitch after two years. We are not sure the cause of his death but we believe it was MBD due to his small size and using the wrong lights for the first six months of his life. Much is appreciated from everybody here who helped us through his...

    Stitch Is Impacted Again...

    Once again Stitch has become impacted. There is no substrate and we have him on a schedule for feeding now. What else could we be doing wrong? We have been forgetting to calcium dust the crickets recently, could that be it? Could it be that i am not using a recommended UVB light? Everybody was...

    Storing Crickets

    Do you think a small 10 gallon aquarium tank would work fine to hold a couple hundred crickets at a time? I have put 200 in before and i looked a couple days later and they were all dead. What did i do wrong?

    Storing Crickets

    Ever since the impaction i experienced with stitch i no longer want to store the crickets with him in the cage. How should i store the crickets and what do i do to keep them alive? also, how should i feed him in the future? How does everybody else feed their beardies?

    Please help impaction :(

    Stitch passed a huge poop today that contained a good portion of the shells. Ever since he did that he has been acting so much happier. He has returned to his basking spot and has his mouth open with his tongue sticking out. Still not 100% but he continues to get better every single day. Thank...

    Please help impaction :(

    I think you should give yourself kudos for giving me the right tips for getting him back to normal. That along with the vets at my work made the process as painless as possible for both me, my girlfriend, and stitch. He still has some time to go to pass everything but im sure he will be fine...

    Please help impaction :(

    The x ray machine is meant for dogs and cats, nothing smaller but i figured with the free access i would give it a try. I was advised by the one doctor who has worked with beardies before to not do an enema because sometimes it causes their already expanded intestines to burst. But he is passing...

    shaking legs and not moving around

    Get a UVB light right away. I made the same mistake for my beardie and he suffered from my stupidity. I had no UVB light for the first 8 months i had him and although i was very lucky he never got mbd, it stunted his growth and he is now full grown but nowhere as large as he should be. Hopefully...

    Please help impaction :(

    It is a great article. Understandably, he's not a big fan of eating right now. I do have some applesauce, but it's sweetened. I definitely am going to give him a warm bath tonight and tomorrow and bring him back in. I will be back tomorrow to update.
