    A miracle has happened

    First, I've had Houdini since the age of 3 months, purchasing him July 2011. He's now close to 20 inches I would guess of average weight. I moved to a new place on July 7th and a day or so later he was exploring his new home when my puppy, Bella, a Long Haired Chihuahua got curious and wanted...

    Is this normal?

    I put Houdini in for a bath 2 or 3 times a week, however I noticed once he stopped fighting to get out he starts drinking and swimming around, especially when I'm not looking. I've also noticed that he puts his head under water when he swims around. Is this normal?

    Getting very concerned

    Houdini will be 11 months on the 15th and has been in and of brumation since November. He wakes up daily and climbs onto his hammock and does nothing else. Not that I can tell as I work all day but he does nothing but that on the weekends. He eats very little and can go a few days without eating...

    Presenting Houdini

    This is my baby boy Houdini. I got him at 3 months last July and I can't say how much I love this little guy. I never thought I'd become so attached to a lizard but I have. It's so right that they are the dogs of the lizard species. He's came out of brumation earlier this week and I couldn't be...

    Yet Another Brumation Question

    My Houdini is currently in and out of brumation and I can't stand it. I miss him. And because of that, I keep taking him out of his viv and let him sleep on my chest as well as taking naps with him. As I move him, he does open his eyes but quickly falls back to sleep. Is it ok that I do this or...

    Christmas wish came true

    This my first Christmas with Houdini and of course he's brumating. Or semi-brumating..I don't know anymore. Anyway, I have this week off and would love for him to wake up so I can spend some time with him. Low and behold, shortly after getting up Christmas morning I looked over at Houdini's viv...

    Has anyone else experienced this?

    My Houdini's in a semi-brumation or so it seems. When I got home from work yesterday he was still wrapped in his blankey like a burrito so I went over to take a look at him. Apparently, he was awake with his eyes open but when he noticed me looking at him he immediately closed them to pretend he...

    Breeding Superworms - A work in progress

    After reading and re-reading the thread on breeding supers, I've decided to give it a shot myself. I thought I'd provide details and updates on what I'm doing in case someone else decides to give it a shot. Today my shipment of 1000 supers have arrived. They are now in a 20gallon long glass...

    Brumation question - easy one

    When your beardie goes in to brumation or semi brumation like my guy, what lights to you turn on daily. I keep his heat lamp on 24/7 but am not sure if I need to turn on his additional light for basking or the uv light? I've been turning them on as well in case he wakes up and decides to go for...

    Disappointed and Sad

    I'm going to assume Houndini is entering brumation rather than think he's sick. He used to eat like a pig on crickets daily as well as his whole dish of greens. Now...nothing and sleeps almost constantly. This may sound selfish but I don't want him to be brumating, he's too young and won't be 8...

    Calcium and vitamins

    How do you know your beardie is getting too much calcium? Not enough other than that bone disease. What about vitamins especially B3. Again, too much and too little? What are the signs of calcium/vitamin toxicity if that can happen. Thanks.

    My first beardie and am a bit worried

    Hi. I have a male juvi beardie and am getting worried because he's sleeping almost 24/7 and his appetite has decreased dramtically. He normally scarfs down 20 or more 4 week old crickets and a full dish of greens daily. Today he ate 1 cricket and no greens as an example. Could he be into...

    New here and new to beardies

    Hi there. This is my first post. I would like to introduce myself and Houdini. I've always had pets but this is my first time acquiring a bearded dragon. I bought him in July when he was 3 months old and is growing like a weed. I named him Houdini because every time I looked in his enclosure I...
