I have had Luna for about 7 months. She was born on Christmas day, so she's about 8 months old now. She's always been very stand-off-ish and doesn't like to be touched or held. I was persisting and trying to get her used to it, until one day she bit my finger! I had never been bitten by a...

I just got Luna a week and a half ago. She is about 4 weeks old. She's around 5 1/2 inches long. I offer her crickets twice daily (once on my lunch break and once when I get home from work) and she only ever eats a few at a time! She eats, on average, about 6 a day. I don't really remember...

Just creating this topic as a place to post pictures of Luna! I just love her so much :) Busted out my Canon Rebel to take some nice pictures of her, even though I couldn't find my tripod so they're slightly more blurry than they should be.

So, last Friday, my bearded dragon of 8.5 (it would have been 9 in May) years passed away. I have now chosen my second bearded dragon who, by the breeder's best guess, is a female and her name is to be Luna! I get her on Saturday. I know it seems really soon compared to how short a time it has...

Itchy was my first and, so far, only bearded dragon and he was just the sweetest boy I've ever met. Despite being diagnosed with MBD in 2012, he remained the most amazing, docile beardie I've ever laid eyes (or hands on). He enjoyed cuddling, he enjoyed running around with his feline friend...

and Itchy isn't doing too well. I don't expect anyone to remember us, but when I began coming here, I had just "rescued" Itchy from my mom's house as I had moved out a few years prior sort of unofficially and we had made it official, so I went back and got Itchy. He moved in with us in April...

It's been a while since I've been on here, but I'm at my wit's end and I can't do this anymore, lol. Since the last time I posted, don't remember when that was... could look it up, bit lazy after a long day of work, but since the last time I posted, I've been feeding Itchy, my ~7ish year old...

I haven't noticed it before just now, but I took him out to give him a bath and after his bath he started coughing. He was being silly and thrashing around a bit in the bath, so I thought maybe he inhaled some water (sort of like when something goes down the wrong tube for us? Can that...

Has anyone on here ever used a cat stroller (like http://www.amazon.com/Fresh-Air-Pet-Stroller-Blue/dp/B002GCFABY/ref=zg_bs_3024134011_12 but preferably with a mesh top so the sun is beaming down on him for the most part and not so much is covered on top) for their bearded dragon? I have taken...

He's always been relatively good about eating everything he's given, but all of a sudden he's refusing veggies. I've had to give him Reptaboost to try and stimulate some appetite but it isn't working. He spits out baby food. I've tried serving him foods that he hasn't tried before (i.e., two...

This is mostly old news. However, I weighed him today and he's only 85 grams. He's almost 6 years old (actually, probably more like a little over 6 years old now) and I'm aware that this is less than half the weight he should be. He has MBD and we've known that since around April of this year...

As some of you might be aware, I have a 5(ish)-year-old bearded dragon (named Itchy). He went to the vet in June... I think it was, and he was diagnosed with MBD. This was probably caused from the first 3-4 years of his life being without a proper UVB source. He has since had his bulb replaced...

Hey guys! Today I ran to Petsmart and I didn't know much about waxworms, and they were all black. I asked the associate (taking a chance, I guess) if they were alive and they said yes, so I just assumed they were weird. Looking it up on the internet now, I know they're dead. Is this going to...

I don't know if this is really an ER issue, but it's definitely concerning. Today I got back from work to find Itchy was holding his foot weird and sort of twitching it. Upon closer inspection, I saw that his nail was missing, and there was just the "quick" left (is that what it's called on...

Currently, my UV light fixture sits on top of the screen but it's come to my attention that the screen filters out some of the UV rays. Now, I'm faced with the dilemma of trying to mount the light inside the tank. However, the fixture is built in such a way that if I try to mount it right side...

...or crickets. Just recently I made a thread on here about him going to the vet, and it turns out he has MBD. He wasn't eating for about 3 days, but yesterday, I took him outside as well as gave him some Repta-Boost and he ate a bunch of grapes, and a bunch of crickets. Today, I tried giving...

He's never been before, and for those of you that know my circumstances, you should know why. But for those that don't - he was living with my mom for a long time and about 2 months ago (maybe even less) he moved in with me at my apartment. He's been doing so well and getting better and better...

Sorry mods, I posted this first in health, but I'm getting more and more worried about it, so I posted it here too. Here's where I'd prefer it anyway... Hey guys. So Itchy, my 4-5 year old beardie is suddenly not eating. It's only started today, but I'm still kind of concerned because it's not...

Hey guys. So Itchy, my 4-5 year old beardie is suddenly not eating. It's only started today, but I'm still kind of concerned because it's not like him. I gave him kale this morning and I had to go out for most of the day. I came back about 5:00 and it didn't look touched. I gave him a couple...

Okay, I'll ask my question first, and then answer the questions in the sticky post. So, I've had Itchy living with me for around a month now and he doesn't seem to be gaining a whole lot of weight. He's healthy, and he's very active, and he's well-fed, it just doesn't seem that he's keeping the...
