    Can We Make a "My Beardie Won't Eat Greens" Sticky?

    Not to be rude, but half of the posts here are the same question. The answer is simple - wait it out. Your beardie is encountering a new food, and he/she doesn't know what the hell it is. Sometimes they get spoiled and will refuse certain foods. Wait it out, and eventually their hunger will...

    Anyone had success breeding phoenix worms?

    Has anyone on here had success breeding black soldier fly larvae (phoenix worm, reptiworm, calciworm, etc)? I'm thinking about giving it a whirl. I garden, so the compost would be used, and I figure that I could mickey-mouse a small composter with little more than a 5-gallon bucket, some old...

    Best Option for a 10 gallon tank?

    Well, I've moved my beardie into its permanent 4x2x2 mansion, and my leopard gecko into its 20 gallon long home. I can't just let my 10 gallon tank go to waste! I was considering a crested gecko (I have a friend that breeds them and is offering a freebie), but I read conflicting opinions...

    Beardie Won't Touch Phoenix Worms

    I just got in a couple hundred phoenix worms to supplement feeding while my dubia colony grows - but my beardie won't touch them! They are quite active (even crawling out of the food dish), so it's not a movement issue. Should I just keep them in there until she (I think) is hungry enough to...

    My DIY Woes/Rants

    In the process of making a 4x2x2 Melamine enclosure. I should first state that I'm not really a handy guy - that being said, I'm giving it a whirl. I had the guy at Home Depot cut my melamine, only to find out that he was a bit off with his cuts. I'll have to modify my doors (luckily I haven't...

    Glass for Sliding Doors - What Size?

    I'm in the process of pricing out various components for my custom 4x2x2, and I had a question about what size to cut the glass for the sliding doors. I want to use glass instead of plexiglass or acrylic because it won't scratch as easy. I know the length should be half the total interior length...

    Lighting/Thermostats/Timers for Newb

    New owner here, in the process of building a custom 4x2x2 enclosure, and setting up a dubia colony. The most daunting task so far for me is figuring out what to do as far as thermostats and timers. I see a lot of recommendations for the ReptiTemp 500R, but I'd prefer something with a digital...
