    Is anyone else here fed up with fake sales?

    For the second weekend in a row I received an email from a popular feeder company offering FREE dubias!!! On the first weekend, the ad said to "just pay actual shipping". Over the weekend I went to the website to find out what actual shipping would cost - $6.11. I went back again that Tuesday...

    Beard Question

    I'm probably just being paranoid, but I figure that it never hurts to have other opinions on a subject. My question is about Fluffy. First of all... Her stats... She will be 4 years old in August. She is 20" long and at last weigh in was 451 grams. Her last fecal exam was clear and that was...

    Anyone ever get very active AFTER laying eggs?

    Crystal just finished laying 26 infertile eggs - her second clutch this season. Everything was normal for her (although she is totally bizarre in the way she lays eggs, but this is our sixth clutch, so I'm used to it). She laid her last egg and put her head down and closed her eyes and started...

    Dubia Colonies Oversimplified?

    I have been hearing for years about dubia roaches. They have been advertised as practically a miracle. I've heard that they are more nutritious, more filling, easier to keep, quieter, lower in odor... One guy at a pet store in Florida claimed to have a roach colony (hello - in Florida?) and...

    Fluffy, Crystal, and Skellington

    I've been gone so long that my old thread locked. That's ok. I need to start a new one anyway. After talking with Deb, I wanted to post pictures of all the kiddos without cluttering up her thread. So, here we go... First I will post the last picture I have of Figment before he passed away...

    Hello Again!

    Hi All! My name is Mindi. I was a member here a few years ago. I got rid of my laptop and have been living life exclusively on tablet and phone and so gave up all of my online activities / boards. Hence the membership and few years ago followed by my disappearance. I moved in August from SW...

    Fluffy Threw Up!!!

    I'm freaking out here. Ok... First the basic info, right? She has definitely been slowing down and acting like she is going to brumate this year. She will eat one superworm on a good day. She lies around on her sofa as much as I will let her. It's shady there and roughly 80-82 degrees...

    After poop - something?

    After getting through all of his meds, Figment started this odd thing when he poops. I noticed he strained a bit after he had gone like he was trying to get something else out. So, the last three times he has pooped I have grabbed a tissue and grabbed the last whatever that he was straining to...

    Two Questions About Panacur & Albon Treatments

    Figment has pinworms & coccidia. You can read all about that on the sick little dragon thread for him. Short version for here is that he took Panacur on Thursday morning and gets two more doses all ten days apart. He took his second dose of Albon this morning and has 4 more doses to go. I...

    Very Sick Little Figment

    My poor, poor baby. Ok... he's not mine, but I'm feeling particularly possessive and protective of him right now. Since I'm home from work (sick myself) I spent the day lying on the sofa where his viv was right in my sight. Long story short... I started calling local vets and trying to find...

    Figment Beard...

    I've been wondering about Figgy for a little bit. When he pooped on me May 13, it was pretty atrocious. Hubby swore that was unusual and we were out on the road and there were enough things that had been "off" lately that I didn't stress it. I haven't seen any other poop since then until...

    Stomach Virus and handling beardies

    My son has a nasty stomach virus right now. It started 2:30 Monday morning and he has spent two days on the sofa miserable. He hasn't handled any of the dragons. I didn't figure it would be a good idea, plus he just wasn't up for it. The good news is that he seems mostly over it and should...

    Pest Control

    So, it's that time of the year here in Sunny Florida. The palmetto bugs are out in full force and running around our wonderful homes. :bleick: Normally, I would start my pest control. I start with a fine powder that I spray into the walls by removing the outlet covers. Great way to kill...

    Can I feed baby supers to a baby beardie?

    I already posted this question this morning under feeder, so sorry for the repost, but I am really looking for an answer. New beardie is 8 3/4" long and 19 grams. Just under 8 weeks old. I breed supers. One of my bins has supers that are just now big enough that I could probably catch some...

    Thermometer question...

    I bought the accutemp (accurite?) Thermometer at Walmart for the newest viv. It's much nicer than what is in the other two vivs. Well, the temp probe has double stick tape already on it. Handy! Heaven knows Fluffy & Figment move theirs around and stuff, so happy to put it down on the ceramic...

    Escaped Hornworm!

    So, I am having a little trouble with my hornworms right now. Trying so hard to manage a good supply for my dragons, but I have too many fatties or I have none that are big enough. It's just exhausting and I am really looking forward to the day when I have the hang of this. As I was cleaning...

    Fluffy & Figment

    I have posted random tidbits about Fluffy all over this forum. And I tried a blog, but somehow just not my thing. I don't know why I think giving them their own thread here will work any better, but let's give it a shot. Ok? I'm going to try for lots of pictures. Let's start with the...

    Setting up basking in center of viv?

    We are currently building the viv for my son's new baby that will be coming home with us in two weeks. This weekend we are discussing design and decorations. My other two dragons live in vivs where their basking spots are on the far side and there are very clear cut temperature variances. My...

    Unusual Reactions?

    Do your beardies react oddly to certain things and, if yes, what? Fluffy is really unpredictable and odd with live food. It's one quirk about her I just can't figure out and I was wondering if others had similar little oddities. Like crickets... she is so over them. Guess I would be too if...

    Fluffy's Adventures Around Town

    So, I have posted stories on here about Fluffy's trips to the pet stores, the hardware stores, a political rally, and Walmart. We are also talking about trips to the beach and Repticon. So, I decided that I will document our trips with photos and create a thread to share them. And we have our...
