    Is he ever going to be tamer?

    So I've had Emerson for 4 months now and when I got him they said he's not very friendly. I've been working with him daily since then and he still puffs up/black beards when I pick him up and when I hold him he fights it. He is almost a year now and he gets his baths every other day and...

    Do you ever just get frustrated?

    My aunt just got a baby beardie from the pet store after taking care of her sister's baby beardie for a week. I love my aunt very much but she seriously frustrates me! She listens to everything the pet store tells her and when I tell her they are wrong she doesn't listen to me :banghead: She...

    Only eats greens after they are dry

    So Ralph hasn't been eating his salad in the morning for about a week now. Instead he waits until its been sitting in his cage all day and is dry...then he gobbles it up :? I've tried giving him fresh again at night but he won't touch it and I'm not really sure what's up with that.

    Moving with beardies and other reptiles

    I might be moving 1200 miles away soon, I'm just waiting to hear back on the house, and if I do I was wondering what the best way to move my beardies and other reptiles would be. I would be selling my car and taking a moving truck there, I also have 2 dogs and I'm not sure how to move them, and...

    Keeping temperature up in dubia bin

    I have my dubias in a 20 gallon storage tote with 2 of the large under tank heaters, one on each side, and I can't seem to keep my temperatures up :banghead: I have a thermostat and checked it and its working just fine but my temps are constantly staying right around 80* even though the...

    Putting on weight too fast?

    So Ralph is 3 years old and I've had him for a week now. He has completely changed from when I got him and is very active and alert now. A week ago he weighed 190g, 3 days ago he was 198g, and I weighed him again today and he weighed 210g. I know its not healthy to put on weight too fast but how...

    Sick beardie at pet store

    I was wondering what do you do when you go to Petco/Petsmart or any other pet store and see a sick beardie? I was at Petco today picking up some dog food and like usual I stopped and looked at the reptiles. They had 2 bearded dragons that were a lot older than the babies they usually carry and...

    Now this is new...

    The last few nights Emerson has been going into his hide at bedtime and trying to dig into the tile. He has his head all the way against the glass and just digs and digs until he finally goes to sleep. He's never done that before and I'm not sure why now :?

    Ralph's new leash

    Emerson still doesn't like to be handled but Ralph seems to be happiest when he's out of his cage but I'm always worried he's going to crawl under the couch or somewhere and I won't be able to get him out. I set up an area for him in the living room with a rock and basking light but would like...

    Superworm question

    I swear if I ever think of all these questions at the same time I'll post them all at once, lol. Ralph is 3 years old but only 15" long. I know you're supposed to wait until they are 16" to feed supers but odds are he's not going to get any longer so are they ok or not? He has a really hard time...

    Repti-worm question

    How wiggly are repti-worms? Ali has a hard time seeing so unless something really wiggles he won't see it. I also have a collared lizard who prefers mealworms to anything else (not good) and I'd like to get some for him but again, unless it really wiggles around he ignores it.

    Probably a silly question...

    Is his leg/foot supposed to bend like this? I had him out today and I noticed his leg was twisted in and his foot was upside down underneath him. Is this normal? He moved it back to normal after that but are they this bendy? :?

    What can cause vision problems?

    So Ali has something wrong with his eyes. He can see but its almost like he can't judge distance at all. If I drop a roach in the tank and it runs to the other side he will be lunging like its right in front of him. I started tong feeding him and it will be right in front of him and he misses it...

    Using a thermostat with dubias

    I got an UTH with thermostat for my roach bin but I was just thinking about something. Can they crawl up the wire from the sensor and escape that way?

    Good weight/size for 8 month old?

    Emerson is around 8 months old and he is 14" long and weighs 165g. Is this a good weight and size? He currently eats a little bit of salad in the morning, then between 12-18 dubias (1/2"-3/4" size) and then he eats another 3-5 dubias in the evening. Should I keep feeding him at night until he...

    A small step :)

    Me and Emerson have a love/hate relationship...I love him dearly and he pretty much hates anything to do with me unless it involves food. I was giving him his bath today and he did the usual: climb out of his tub, I put him back in and then he says ok and sits there until I take him out. When I...

    Need help planning stacking enclosure build

    I want to build 3 stacking enclosures for my 2 beardies and my collared lizard. The collared lizard's would be on top since the hotter the better for him and the beardies would be in the middle and bottom. I know that they are all going to be 48x24 but haven't decided on the height yet (part of...

    Beardie with rubber jaw :(

    Well my new rescued beardie Ali appears to have rubber jaw :( Someone on another forum said something about his jaw looking slightly deformed so when I gave him his bath today I lightly touched the side of his lower jaw and its squishy. That would definitely explain why he couldn't catch his...
