It has been a while. I got busy with all my breeding leopard geckos. Hugo has been my companion, overseeing everything!!! He is still a sweet cuddly big boy. Loves his head rubbed, and wrapped up in a blanket at night. He has been such a delight, and surprise. Hugo is 17 months....656...

:blob5: :blob5: :blob5: Today Hugo is one year old. Weighing in at 566 grams and 19.5 inches long. This was my first dragon, and the experience has been great!! I got him Feb 21, 2012 at 6 weeks from Rio Reptiles. He was only 22 grams and 7 inches long. He has been a great eater!! His favorites...

Weight: 496 grams Length 18.5 inches In the last few weeks, I have noticed a decline in his eating. Thanks to Rio Reptile's care sheet, I realize this is normal. I am not sure if he will brumate this winter, or not. He has always been a pampered dragon, and waits for me each morning to put...

474 grams 18 inches long Loves silkworms, superworms, and mustard greens. Still a bit lazy. I have to wake him up every morning, and put him on his basking spot. :roll:

I have two palm trees that are producing dates. Can these be given to Bearded Dragons? I checked the BeautifulDragon nutrition section, but no mention of dates. They are orange and we eat them all the time. Here is the nutritional contents: Vitamins A palm date has 1 percent of the daily value...

Well, today Hugo has been a wild man. He has been running round the room all day. Zooming around everywhere!!!! So I decided to take him out on the screen porch, which usually terrifies him. Well, obviously he has gotten over that. He even claimed my beach chair!!!

Hugo has a habit of eating a few bites of greens right before the lights go out. He will bask, and then run over, and grab a few bites before getting on the cool side. Should I be removing these an hour before bedtime, also? I have always removed his bugs. Just wondering if going to sleep, with...

I would love to get everyone's input on what readings they are getting with various UVB bulbs at the basking sight, and the cool end. This is what I have: Bulb: Arcadia T5 D3 12% fluorescent Basking area: 105-157uW/cm2 Cold end: 30uW/cm2 Shade method/ Calcium D3 5xweek

For the last few weeks Hugo stays under his blanket, until I wake him up. The lights come on at 7:00 am, but he stays under his blanket until 8:30am, when I uncover him. Once wake, everything is normal. He eats good, poops good. Around 6:00 pm he goes to his hide, and goes to sleep. He use to be...

I can't believe how much my little baby has changed!! :shock: He is still sweet and cuddly, but sooo big, now. He weighed 314 grams today, and is 16.5 inches long. I did start him on the adult Superworms, and he loves them!! He has adjusted to his new 4x2x2 viv with the new Arcadia T5 D3 12%...

Ok, I have read that you are not to introduce adult superwoms until they reach 16". My question is..does the age also matter? Reason i am asking, is that Hugo is now 16" and 285 grams, but he is still a baby at 4 months and 3 weeks. He is eating .75 crickets, and small dubias, now. Obviously, I...

We all like taking pictures of our dragons. I found this app for my iPad that converts them to sketches. It is called My Sketch. Here is a picture that I took of Hugo:

Everything is going good. Hugo is 4.5 months, now. He has adjusted to his new CustomCage 4x2x2. We had an issue with coccidia, and mushy diarrhea. I gave him Toltrazuril for two days, and then followed with Reptaid in AM and AcidophilLiz+ in PM. Now we have normal HUGE poops, and eating great...

Hugo is my dragon from Rio Reptiles. Today at 4 months he weighs 239 grams, and 15" long. Finally, he is loving is veggies. He is visiting his new 4x2x2 viv. I am still tweeking the temps, and basking light. But, he should be moved in by this weekend. I am using the Arcadia T-5 D3 12% bulb, and...

Hugo is now 10 weeks old. He weighs 47 grams, and is 9.5 inches long. Average 80 bugs daily, and is eating the veggies, dragon bites, and cactus. Still has the sweetest personality!!!!

This is a minor problem: Hugo ALWAYS poops on his basking platform. :cry: Is this a norm? Just wanted to see if there is a solution,or any tricks to get him to poop on the paper towel. As soon as he poops, he will run to the other side, and wait for me to clean up. (Who is training who???)...

Hi everyone!! Hugo will be two months old tomorrow. :blob5: He is eating great!! He weighs 25 grams and is 8.5 inches long. We are still getting use to one another, since he has only been here for 9 days. He is very calm when I hold him, now. I unblocked one side of the tank, so he can see me...

Hi everyone!! My name is Sally. I have been lurking here for the last two weeks. Trying to soak up all the information. I will be getting my first baby BD next week. :blob5: I have a 30 gallon tank, to start him off. Will be using paper towels for substrate. My UVB will be a Repti-Sun 10.0. I...
