    NEED HELP ASAP!!! POSSIBLE REPTISAFE OVERDOSE?

    I was just giving my beardie Boss his bath as I do twice a week and I fill up my sink and always just squirt some reptisafe in there, and tonight was no different in the amount I put in but he usually only drinks about once every 6 weeks or so. Tonight he took a 30-45 second non stop drink and...

    Vet confounded - desperate for help!

    This looks like an extreme case of yellow fungus. Cream and vitamin shots are not going to help, I believe he needs an oral anti fungal. I would suggest taking him to be seen by another qualified herp vet, especially since the one told you to switch to walnut shells and didn't tell you to...

    What morph is Darkon?

    Most do have white bellies, but it's the clear nails that would make him hypo. Unless he has all 20, he's not 100%. A lot of times normals will get orange or yellow beards or around their eyes. My guess would be he's probably part normal and part citrus. I'm sure he will make beautiful...

    Quick question :)

    He is at the age where he should be switching to more greens than live prey, but they usually tend to make the switch on their own. 3-4 roaches a day isn't a lot, so I would continue to give him that amount. Does he eat greens at all? Sometimes to get them to eat their greens we have to play...

    What morph is Darkon?

    You see, without knowing the parents, you just don't know the exact genetics, but you would be able to tell by looking at him if he was a leatherback (reduced scales on back making it smooth), hypo (hypomelanistic, meaning bred without dark pigmentation giving them pure white bellies and 20...

    I'm a new bearded dragon owner.

    You NEED, i repeat NEEEED, a light that produces UVB, along with a bright white basking bulb. For the basking bulb it can be a regular old household bulb, but for uvb you need to get a special reptile bulb. You want either reptiSUN (available at www.petmountain.com) or arcadia 12%. These are...

    please help me

    You can get the thermometer right at walmart or on amazon.com, and even in pet stores but it will cost more there. It doesn't have to be a specific one, just a digital probe thermometer. I like the ones that give you an in and out reading so you can get your basking temp and cool side with one...

    Starting over? Any help would be great!

    Wow, still no poop? Yeah, I would hold off on the solids and protein until he goes. LOTS of VERY warm baths, apple/pumkin and oil.......hes gotta have to go! Lol no, he doesn't look sick at all. I don't see any obvious signs of MBD either. Fingers crossed for some poop! :)

    I'm a new bearded dragon owner.

    do you have a bulb that produces uvb or just the heat bulb? Is it a regular light bulb or does it look like the coil bulbs or a long tube? Also, you need to get a digital thermometer. Lighting and temps are the MOST important factor in a beardies life, so you have to know the exact temp for...

    please help me

    So sorry about Godzilla. :( For future reference, if you plan on getting another beardie, you don't want to house them together. I also noticed that you have an under tank heater and a 150 watt basking bulb, and I find it really hard to believe the temp in the size tank you have could be 101...

    Boss!

    :) Lola is a citrus tiger and Boss is a rainbow tiger, but technically thats just the name the breeders pick for that specific color line, and the tiger is because of their side bars. Which one does Houdini look like? Boss is more orange & Lola is yellow, sometimes greenish when she's...

    Starting over? Any help would be great!

    Don't worry, we all made these mistakes in the beginning, but its great that you are taking the initiative to change it for the better. Im sorry your buddys not pooping. A month is a long time to not have gone. Even if he's not eating much, he should be pooping something. Everything on your...

    Stress Marks?? *pic*

    Yes, those are stress marks. They could be there from a number of things like if you just got him or him being cold. Whats his basking temp? Do you use a probe thermometer or temp gun?

    Beardie torso is turning white.

    She is definetly getting ready to shed! When their younger they shed in sections, like their back/belly, head/tail/chin and arms/legs, and when they get older sometimes just shed in patches. You can give her daily baths to help with the shed. She's a cutie!

    My bearded Dragon has a bump by her eye

    Did you take her to an experienced herp vet? To say that the vet was very pleased with the health of the beardie pictured, I'm just not sure were seeing the same dragon. What was the diagnosis of the lump on her eye?
