Ok so I've heard a lot of people say that bearded dragons don't have emotions and whatnot. I was just wondering what eveyones opinion on this was. The reason I ask is because I swear my dragon Tiny, my oldest male, is a bit protective at times. I think it's hilarious but my boyfriend thinks I'm...

Our second dragon Tiny is missing about six inches of his tail so all he has is a nub and he ALWAYS wags it, especially when he's excited about something. I don't know how common it is and it used to bother me because I thought maybe something was wrong but his nub doesn't bother him at all. My...

The nighttime light you bought, is it a red or blue one? The reason I am asking is because the nighttime bulbs sold in stores that are colored, disturb a dragons sleeping. That's why the CHE is better. I've never had to hook mine up to a thermorstat or anything, just a regular light fixture. My...

For right now, I would say your best bet would to buy baby food, the chicken or squash kind. Even if you could order some feeders offline, they wouldn't be there for a few days. And I don't know with the weather the way it is how many people are shipping the feeders out. The chicken has the...

Hello, just checking in to see how your baby is doing so far. As some might remember, we went through almost the same thing. My fiancée had to actually pry our dragon from the others mouth. We didn't know if he would make it through the night or not. Thankfully, he did. Here's just a few things...

Pretty much just like brushing our own teeth I suppose. I have to use a really fine pipe cleaner looking thing, I'm not sure what it's supposed to be for but it does the job, Get it a little wet and use the softness to get him to open his mouth a little and kind of menuver the superworms pieces...

Them growing to fat has never been a problem for us thankfully. We usually get the small ones and our little leather back eats them but there are always bigger ones when they come that we feed to our three bigger dragons. Of course doing this makes our 615 gram year old mad because he prefers...

Quick question for the experts on here. I have always heard that for silkbacks, you should use the 5.0 instead of the 10.0. The reasoning is because the 10.0 provides to much UVB for a silkbacks since they are different from regular dragons. Is this information still correct?

It would depend on if you could get the temp right but I'm pretty sure people use them. For our dragons, we use just regular bright white light bulbs. One of our dragons has a sixty five watt, another has a one hundred watt, one with a seventy five, and our last one has a seventy two watt. Even...

If you are using the red light for night time, I would definitely buy the ceramic heat emitter. The reason is because beardies need complete dark to sleep. That light could actually be ruining her good nights rest. I'm not trying to alarm you or anything, but like I said before I would hate for...

Soy yogurt will work fine for the probiotics. Make sure that it is soy because if you get regular yogurt, dragons can't process dairy. If your baby is still not eating right, you could try baby food. Squash or chicken stage 1 baby food is what is recommended, make sure it doesn't have any...

I agree with everyone else here. In the first year, we spent about 3 grand on stuff for our dragons. Some of it we probably wouldn't need but it's nice to have just in case. We made a reptile emergency kit that we spent probably two hundred on alone. Honestly, the best thing we ever did for...

In my opinion, the protective instinct towards your dragon, beautiful name by the way, is perfectly normal. We currently have four dragons and I'm very protective of every one of them. Just a tip, I don't know how much she eats but 500 Phoenix worms hardly lasted at my house even when it was...

I'm by far not an expert, but I can offer you some advice and ask some questions the experts generally ask. What type of substrate do you have her on? What are her temps in the Viv and what are you using to measure them with? What kind of lights do you have? What type of food does she normally...

Mitch needs a vet and I know money is tight so I hate to even suggest this but have you thought about signing up for the CareCredit card. It's like a creditcard but you can only use it at places like the doctors, vets, and dentist. My vet takes it and every time they do they run a special...

Unfortunatly, pet stores are known to give horrible advice. First thing you should do, remove the bark and put in paper towels or something. Any loose substrate isn't recommended, even if they aren't eating in the same tank, because of the amount of bacteria it can harbor and dragons still lick...

I'm not an expert, but I will try to offer some advice and ask questions that the others might. For his temps, we need three different temps. The hot side, the cool side, and the basking surface temp. What are you measuring these temps with? A probe, a temperature gun, or a circle dial? What...

I'm not an expert, but I'll tell you what I know and ask you some questions. What are the temperatures in the tank and what are you measuring them with? We need three different temps; the cool side, the hot side, and the basking temp. Im not sure what you lights are like but need a reptisun...

It's great that he ate the baby food! If she continues not eating that much and you keep up the baby food, try some chicken. The reason is because it will help her grow faster because of the amount of protein in it compared tomsay squash. The 10 gallon should be fine for now, but be prepared to...

How big is your large tank? How many gallons? The reason I ask is because some littler dragons get to stressed out if there tank is to big. For example, some baby dragons get stressed if they are put into a a 40 galling tank. What are you measuring the at with? A probe, a temp gun, or one of...
