In general, do you think it is possible for it to go back to normal?

I'm wondering if anyone can give me any advice on a tail nip? I treated with Betadine solution today- hours after it occurred. Here are a few photos. The area is darker due to the solution. This is her: Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Dear all, I got a baby BD today and nipped her tail by mistake. She is 8 weeks old and i could kick myself. I got it caught when closing the box I got her in. It is about 4mm from the very tip. Is there anything I can do to save it? Kind regards, Steve

Dear all, My BD Deano, who about one month ago was treated for internal parasites, eats about 80% greens after the treatment. He hardly eats any feeders around 5-10 crickets/supers per day. He's around 10-11 months old. Do you think the treatment caused him to like his greens more? He NEVER ate...

Deall all, Deano my BD has always been lazy and laying under the basking light 90% of the time so a few days ago I installed a light bulb (low energy) on his cool side as I read that sometime with the cool side being more dark they will not go there. However, now he wont leave the cool side and...

There are too many variables to answer this definitively, for example was (s)he previously handled and how often? Bearded Dragons do suffer from relocation stress...anything from a few days to weeks. The best thing to do is put an item of your clothing in for him to sleep on and get used to your...

Cheers bud!

Dear all BD lovers, Today my basking bulb burned out and I'm unable to get another one. I went to the local supermarket looking for a spot lamp bulb with no luck. Its saturday night nearly 10 pm andd I worry. Tomorrow the local lighting store is open could I go there and what should I ask for...

Dear ceemanone, As you have come here looking for advice, I would recommend you giving your BD a warm bath ( around the same temp you would have for a child) which is up to his shoulders in depth and if nothing happens after around 15 mins gently stroke its belly whilst in the water. You can...

Feel better knowing its not so uncommon. Yeah said no other parasites were found and veterinary treatment was required. Hopefully when I get this over with everything will be normal for awhile at least. I will surely make sure I get a probiotic and clean viv regularly. Thanks for your help and...

EURO 2012 was terrible for my Ireland :(

My cousin called me today and told me. I'm not sure which meds yet. I'm only being billed for the fecal exam sent off last week as it was an external company. Feel terrible for the little guy. Could it have been relocation stress that triggered it? :(

My BD is also going through a full body shed. Although I've read that it affects them in different ways, Deano has still a good appetite but his general behaviour has been weird to say the least. If you have a hydrophilic dragon, baths are always good. Think of their shedding like a car air...

I feel closest to my bearded dragon than any of my other animals...I have 2 dogs (soon to be a lot more as molly is pregnant), 3 cats and livestock such as sheep and cattle (not really pets). My Bearded dragon (Deano) also knows law as I often practice public speaking in front of him :lol...

Deano has chronic numerous COCCIDIA :( Now treatment will start.

Dear Tracie, Do you think uvguide.co.uk will be including this new tube in their most recent study? I cannot wait to see the new results to which they are currently working on. In the new arcadia 10% is included and proven to be what it says it is, I will surely be purchasing it as it's around...

Dear all BD slaves, I've just came across two items I'd like to share with you all. 1- Arcadia has launched a new UVB tube that is 10% T8 fixture with an alleged 3 months longer life than other tubes. Have a look yourself: http://www.arcadia-reptile.com/products/euro-range-fluorescent-lamps/...

Thank you for your replies. Really means a lot to me and I feel happier now that we've narrowed it down. Best wishes, Steve.

Thanks for your replies. Here are the photos and just to emphasize I want to show you the difference in him since I got him a few months back. This is him today after I lowered his perch and tested temps that came in around 100f: When I lift him out for feeding he looks quite 'normal'...
