It seems like my Iris has ingested some loose hair in my room.. she just tried to pass it and it's stuck in her vent. I don't know how much is still inside, but it's hanging out. I tried to LIGHTLY tug on it to see if she would push it out, but she isn't and it looked like if i kept pulling, she...

Well, money has been tight and I had to switch to crickets for a bit until I can afford roaches.. but anyways, I fed Iris crickets, I'm not sure how many.. but she's been puking up wads of crickets for the last 2 days and half her tail is very black. She's been laying down a lot.. when i go to...

Well this is pretty short and gross.. but I am balancing being a full time student AND having a job right now and I can't always be home.. and more times than not, Pepper will poo while I am gone.. and I come home to her COVERED in it and her poo is mashed into the ground. :banghead: I always...

Haven't posted any updated pics in awhile. But Pepper stopped eating to look at the camera when I was intruding on her salad... hehe :) She loves the camera! I will try and get more pics up more frequently. :)

Well, Last night Pepper did something that really made me feel like Mama. :) I've been having issues with the Velcro on her light to hold it against the tank.. (it keeps falling) so i replaced it, and it fell AGAIN. And I could tell it startled her this time.. she was dark and fuming. So, i...

I have a little girl who is almost 7 months old.. and she is very petite. Not exactly small.. just skinny. I feed her salads consisting of mustard, collard, and turnip greens. And she gets tons of small dubia a day (i don't count them).. and she is still skinny. I see her eating greens and...

Any tips on how to keep their nails filed? Pepper's nails are like little knives.. i can hardly handle her because it makes cuddle time so painful. She has a rock in her enclosure, but i don't think she's on it enough for it to keep her nails filed. I'm afraid to try anything because i don't...

Well, I've had Iris for about 2 weeks now. And she is quite the little spaz. Every time i try and hold her, she is very squirmy and tries to jump out of my hand. She does the same thing if i even just put my hand in the tank to feed her or pet her. I am wondering if this is still just...

When I first got Pepper, she was very tiny.. and i placed her at about 6 weeks when I got her in July.. thinking her hatch date was in early June. But now I am starting to believe she was maybe about 4 months old when I got her.. I just got another beardie who hatched on June 6th and she is...

Well.. Pepper has a form of Coccidia.. Apparently it's one that makes a TON of eggs. Picking up treatment for it today. So glad we found it.. she showed no signs of anything being wrong. She was eating and basking normally. And her poop looked normal.. I feel like a bad mother. :( I strongly...

I think my beardie is having trouble shedding her front right arm. When she was chasing a dubia, she came to a complete stop and started having this odd arm convulsion.. after about 20 seconds she was back to normal. At first i thought her nail got caught on the carpet until it started happening...

I wanted to share my beardie experience with my favorite little girl :) I was in Petsmart when i passed by the reptiles, and i noticed one of the baby bearded dragons was attacking the glass as i walked by and followed me along the glass. I kept coming back to look in the tank, and the same one...

Pepper has a lump on the left side of her chest near her front arm. I noticed is a few days ago, and assumed it might have been from just eating.. but it hasn't gone away and i can feel it when i run my fingers over it. Any ideas on what this may be? :?

I ordered 25 medium size dubia and left them alone for a little so i could finish up my crickets.. When i finished them, i went to get my roaches to transfer them to a bigger tub.. and i saw a few little babies in the tank! So perfect because i was afraid the ones i had were too big. I must be...

Okay so i bought mass amounts of phoenix worms.. and i didn't want them to turn into adults so i read somewhere to put them in the fridge and they will stop growing/eating.. i did the same thing with my hornworms because they were getting way to big and Pepper wouldn't touch them. Well i had...

I feed Pepper the same time every day, the same thing, the same amount. And today she wasn't chasing crickets at all. She hasn't touched her salad. And all the phoenix worms i put in her bowl are still squirming around. She seems to just want to gape under her basking light today with her eyes...

I just wanted to make sure there was no way that this basking light can effect my beardie's eyes, skin, behavior, etc. She's had it for about a month and she's still eating and pooping regularly and loves basking in it.. I haven't seen anyone post about this particular lamp. I am using the...

Well, Pepper usually sleeps in her hammock.. so of course i freak out when i go check on her before going to bed and see she isn't there.. I panic and turn her lights on and find her like this.. "Mooom, turn the lights off.. I'm trying to sleep!"

I'm not sure my beardie is growing as fast as she needs to. Every beardie i have seen her age is 10+ inches already and she's a whopping 6 1/2 inches at (around) 4 months. Can this cause any health problems in the future? She seems as healthy as can be at the moment.. just a bit tiny.

She was in the cutest pose .. :)
