    Crushed Walnuts vs. Alfalfa pellets?

    Oh dear, that poor baby. That's awful. Now if all the loose sub-straits cause so many problems for our dragons, why are they continued to be sold everywhere? D: Tile is sounding like the best option, easiest too. Will the shelf liner under it get moldy if it gets wet? My dragons like a good...

    Crushed Walnuts vs. Alfalfa pellets?

    Thanks so much everyone! I had been told that the crushed walnuts pass right through so it was safe for beardies. Thanks for the info! Is using tile difficult to stick in a viv?

    Crushed Walnuts vs. Alfalfa pellets?

    I'm getting ready to move my two buddies to their 40gal breeder vivs. I had planned on using the crushed walnuts but I just saw on Amazon some alfalfa pellets you can use. I was wondering if they would pass through if ingested as well as the crushed walnuts or if they'd get weird and cause...

    Not growing?

    I fed them 2-3 times a day but now it's between 1-2. Temps max out in their basking spots at 81 last time I checked. I use digital monitors.

    Not growing?

    Hello everyone! I'm back on here again, since Meeko's death I have adopted another Sandfire. Not a hypo this time though. Lloyd is a giant, so fat. Cute story on how he got his name, remind me to tell you sometime. (; Anyways, I've had Lloyd and Fairfax for around 2-3 months. They are around 4-6...

    Meeko is dying

    Thanks so much for all the advise. Unfortunately my little boy didn't make it. He died a few minutes ago in my hands, he was only with me for 34 days. Meeko was just two months old this week.

    Meeko is dying

    Meeko has taken a turn for the worse. He won't eat for me and is no longer keeping his head up. He won't let me open is jaw, any advise on that so as not to hurt him? All my beardies get a warm bath at least once a day, I'm using the Repti-Sun 10.0 UVB light and temps in Meeko's direct basking...

    Meeko is dying

    Hello everyone, my first beardie is/was Meeko, he was the runt of the clutch. He's a gorgeous Sandfire Hypo, he's three months old at the most now. He hasn't been eating well, lethargic, keeping under rocks on the cool end of his viv, losing lots of weight, and keeping his eyes closed for about...

    Night light

    (I'm not sure if this should be in a specific category so I'm just throwing it here in the General Discussion)\ At the pet store I've seen two colors of night time heat lights, blue and red. Does it matter which one I use?

    Stress marks?

    The cool end is barely 80 using my 75w bulb. I have an extreamly cold room, my window leaks.

    Stress marks?

    I put in my red 60w night time bulb that came with a set and basking temp is at 88.3 I read not here but other places online that it should be 110 for babies?

    Stress marks?

    They are right now, I'm working to get Fairfax moved though. I didn't realize housing them together wasn't the best idea ever but I need a viv to go on sale or wait until I get my paycheck. They're doing fine as of right now, understood that any time one of them could lash out but I just can't...

    Stress marks?

    Right now he's in a 10gal due to his tiny size he still gets lost in that every once in a while. I have the Rapti-Sun 10.0 UVB, '24, Repti Halogen 75w basking light, reptile carpet stuff from the petstore, salad dish, shallow water dish, digital thermometer. None of that plastic disk junk. I...

    Lathargic, no appitite, and shedding

    Right now he's in a 10gal due to his tiny size he still gets lost in that every once in a while. I have the Rapti-Sun 10.0 UVB, '24, Repti Halogen 75w basking light, digital thermometer. None of that plastic disk junk. I have a branch in there so they can be basking in 82.3 on the semi-cool...

    Stress marks?

    Fairfax is my most active beardie between him and Meeko, he's always running about. He will sit and watch TV and cuddle though, but if I let him run around, he will. Always. I thought the black markings over his belly was just part of his coloration, since he's my dark beardie. Meeko is my...

    Lathargic, no appitite, and shedding

    Health: Meeko is about five and a half weeks old now, he's still barely four inches from mouth to the tip of his tail. This is his first shed while in my care and he's slowed down, a whole lot. The first couple days he only ate three crickies and then he ate one, now he won't eat any of them. He...

    Pellet food/dead food vs. live food

    As far as the feeding of the crickets and such I do. I give them salad, Beardie pellet food, cricket food, cricket water gel things, and the like. Perhaps it is just the shells, I'll have to check on that with this new batch of 1oo crickies I got today. The roaches sound like they're a good...

    Pellet food/dead food vs. live food

    My only problem with keeping crickets or any feeders in bulk like that bust mostly crickets is their short life span. I buy around 100 a week for my two guys, sometimes more sometimes less. I feed them until they won't eat anymore twice a day. But anyways, quite a few of those crickets die by...

    Pellet food/dead food vs. live food

    Hey everybody, Quick question here: Meeko isn't even touching his salad, pellet, dead crickets, or wet baby beardie food. He refuses to eat anything but live crickets, I've wiggled dead crickies on flat tooth picks and such, even covered them with a powder that you mix with a bit of water to...
