Hi all! So yesterday I bathed Queen, I rubbed down her tail to get off the water and felt an air pocket, I thought thats strange but maybe she's starting to get ready to shed, I poked it to feel where it starts and ends, when I touched it, some air must have escaped, but the most awful smell...

Hi all, Sorry, I don't know if this is the right section, if it isn't I'm sorry. I was wondering if you could help me judge this baby's body condition and if she is in desperate need of rescuing or attention? I think I can see her spine and hip bones. But I want a second opinion just for in...

Hi all, I have a 1+ year dragon that has stunted growth, we believed what the pet shop here said and now he is 12'' with a big tail nip, but really starting to grow fast. Any way I just wanted to make sure his weight is right for his size and age, he currently weighs 230g. Is that okay? Or a bit...

Hi all, well I decided today that from this week on, I'm going to try to tame Gabriel, my sister's 1 year old dragon, I tried before and just gave up because I don't know how to begin, the people where we got him from didn't handle him as a baby so he was wild to begin with but because my sister...

Hi all, when I got my first dragon she had this deformed nail that curled in a circle 2 times, about 6 months ago I noticed that the nail had broken off cleanly, and looked like a normal nail, but today I saw that its starting to grow in a curve again and I'm scared the tip is going to hurt her...

Hi all, I was just wondering if the BSF is safe to feed my Beardies? I got my tub of Phoenix worms this morning and the guy said that if they turn to flies you can still feed them to my dragons. Is this true? I also got teeny tiny silkworms babies, I was wondering if there are any special...

Hi everyone, I just want to make sure that this is indeed Brumation, my Grandmother is concerned and she wants me to make sure ( :lol: ) So Gabriel is now a year and few months, and he is spending most of his time in his hide sleeping, his temps are fine, he gets bathed every other day, he has...

Hi guys, I recently purchased Power Sun MVBs, the little one LOVES his new light and his true colors are showing, no problems there. But the older dragon just lays under the MVB with her eyes closed and sometimes won't even bask, so I figure it is hurting her eyes or something else. Now I want...

Hi all, I've noticed last week that my female (I think) dragon is sleepy through the day, like she doesn't get enough sleep in the night, the lights go off at 6:30 pm to 6:30 am and I close her head with a blanket because the computer shines directly on her viv. Last week she got moved to a...

Hi all, I got a 1 year old female on the 16th or 17th December. I don't know how long relocation stress lasts if they go through it. She eats well and looks alert and well. But when I try to take her out, she puffs up her beard and shows warning signs of "leave me alone". I pick her up anyway...

Hi all, it's summer here in SA, and that means flies, mosquitoes and midges... The midges get everywhere! In my roach bin which is covered up, in the dragon's vivs, anywhere where there is food. Is Midges poisonous beardies? And how on earth do I prevent them from going in the dragon's cages...

So recently I have gotten the urge to get another Beardie, but I don't want to buy from the petshops because they really don't care for their babies. Now I live in South Africa and I have searched the internet for an hour looking for a breeder near me. Problem is the nearest real breeder that I...

Hi all, I changed the towels in Gabriel's cage today and since then he has tried eating it several times... Why would he do that? He LOVES his greens so I thought that he thought that the towel was some greens but I don't know? He gets fed a salad of mixed greens and squash, then 20-30...

Hi all, I have a quick question, does the size of a dragon influence the dragon if she lays infertile eggs? Like if you have a REALLY small dragon, will she survive laying infertile eggs?
