I was curious as to what constitutes as a runny stool. Is it one without form (like human diarrhea), or does it merely have excess water with the solid portion. Runny stools is an indicator of infection, but what is the major difference between excess water (from veggies/soaks), and something...

I looked through some older posts concerning a swollen belly, but none were what I was looking for. :shock: Aaliyah is eating fine and active (she likes to pace her cage). She poops a lot, regularly (once a day on average). Poop seems normal. She's 4 months old. When I pick her up, she's not...

Read First, before posting! Thanks! -Kamille I've been given very negative opinions on a side mounted UTH, but in my opinion, for some snakes, it's better than using them under tank. When reading the instructions for a UTH, the side mount was a safety preferred method, and after attaching it to...

We're going to sculpt an elaborate basking/dig box as well as a separate hide box structure. I was wondering if y'all had any tips regarding sculpting. -Clay brand, type? -Is the clay cracking a problem? -Will acrylic chip? -Anything I need to be concerned about? This is an after Christmas...

Before you go further, I am aware sand is bad for Beardies, and that calcium sand is also. I am not ill informed, I am a successful Bearded Dragon owner. Now, let's get to the good stuff. :wink: While reading Reptiles magazine, I came across an ad for Reptilite. It claims to be 100%...

I'm interested in a Uromastyx (as a future pet), and was wondering which breeders were the best and most decently priced. I live in Texas, so they must be willing to ship. I've never had a shipped animal, and I'm looking forward to a good experience. The breeder needs to have a excellent history...

I found no previous threads regarding fruit flies, which was somewhat disappointing, but now I get to create my own topic! :mrgreen: I was curious, how do you successfully raise Fruit Flies? Fluker's sells them, and states that they have everything they need in the tube, as well as being able...

Aaliyah's main staple is crickets, and she gobbles 10 up within two minutes. When feeding Reptiworms, she only ate 4. She is almost totally disinterested in them. Reptiworms are easier and cheaper than using crickets as a staple, which is why I decided to use them. I was wondering how to...

After seeing other user's posts on how much they feed their Beardie, I am concerned I am not feeding mine enough. Aaliyah recently had a Gastrointestinal Infection and lost a lot of weight, but she is now very healthy. :) She is 7-8 weeks. I worry about impaction, which is why we feed her 10...

I had previously made a topic concerning Aaliyah only eating crickets, and then she ate greens, but currently she will not eat anything. She refused everything yesterday, as well as this morning. Her behavior seems exactly the same and no feces change has been seen. The only difference is she...

I need ideas on how to keep my sadistic kitty off of Aaliyah's cage. She never leaves my room, so locating her is not an option, nor is keeping her in a crate - she's a cat. Sticky paper will not deter her, neither will a water/vinegar solution. I prevent her from getting on the cage, but when I...

I have read numerous information regarding proper feeding techniques, etc., but all information seems different. My Beardie barely eats vegetables (carrots, squash, and zucchini), and I have tried feeding her Beardie food (has complete nutrition), but she is too young. The only food she will eat...

I have never been one for reptiles. In fact, most of them terrify me. However, on a visit to Petco, the biggest baby Bearded Dragon was smacking her hands on the glass when I walked by. She definitely chose me. My boyfriend, Justin, also immediately fell in love, so we made the financial and...
