    Troubles With New Batch Arcadia 12% T5?

    Hi everybody, I recently bought new bulbs for my beardie. I stuck with what has been working, and bought some more Arcadia 12% T5 bulbs. Since changing it out, Moose has been miserable. Hiding, closing his eyes, showing dark colors, refusing food. He'd come out to bask with his eyes closed for...

    Lip lump/cut/infection?

    Hello everyone, I just noticed this today giving Moose his bath. Not sure what it is, it almost looks like he bit his lip and developed a sore as a human would. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or not. Does it look like he's ill or could he have given himself a minor injury somehow? His...

    The Great Big List of Adult Enclosures!

    Hi everyone, The question, “Hey, where can I buy a custom enclosure for my beardie?” tends to pop up on the forum on a weekly basis. While this is obviously the perfect place to ask such a question, it’s too hard to list every single option whenever someone asks. Sometimes people even respond...

    Does this sound like normal bearding-practice?

    Hi everyone, Let me first say I'm not home ATM. My Fiancé is alone watching Moose as I had to leave for an unknown period of time. His behavior today made her uncomfortable so I came here to get another opinion. To me, it seems like he's just practicing his bearding skills and doesn't quite...

    Ingested styrofoam, should I be concerned?

    Hi everyone, My beardie, Moose, loves his worms. He eats silks, supers, and horns every day of the week. Not a single one ever escapes... Err... Or so I thought. I woke up to a pile of white powder in his tank this morning. Looking as confused as I was, moose starts licking it up. Immediately...

    Unattended for 5 Minutes (video!)

    This is Moose: Moose enjoys making people laugh; he likes to bask, eat greens, and he loooves to poop on his basking log. Oh, and he knows how annoying that is. He poops on it, I wash it off with the hose, bake it, and 2 hours later, he gets his log back. It's been this way since the beginning...

    Possibly Coccidia (Help With Diagnosis Please!)

    Moose was recently treated for pinworms, vet said his fecal came out clear of everything a week or two ago. I noticed his poo lost its nasty funk, but it came back... went away again (weird right?) and now it's been real bad these last two days. I bought one of those cheap microscopes from...

    Moose Is Here! ( update 8/19)

    Hey everyone! After 3 years on this forum and lots of impatient waiting, my life is finally at the point where I can bring home my own beardie. Took a few days and several emails to many breeders, but I've finally found the one. He isn't here yet, but is scheduled to be shipped over night early...

    Would anyone be interested in an Arcadia 12% UVB in the US?

    Hey guys, just thought I'd throw this out there... I've come across an opportunity to bring these bulbs into the country. Now, I've done tons of research in the last two years and from what I've gathered, the Arcadia 12% is the best UVB bulb on the market. Some of our members here have tested...

    Has anyone tried using grouted polystyrene as substrate?

    Just as the title asks. I haven't made any fake rocks with the stuff so I have no experience cleaning it. If you haven't tried it as substrate does it seem like a good idea? Or is it too hard to maintain? You could make it look just like their natural habitat and add gradients as you please... I...
