    No lid on tank?

    Hello! I was wondering. I just realized this morning how much I hate removing and replacing the screen top on Salacia's tank everytime I do something. It's a 40 Gallon Breeder. There's nothing high enough or close enough to the top edges of the glass for her to get out. Can I just remove the...

    Brumation?

    I have a question, hopefully you all can help. My beardie, Salacia, has been sleeping a lot lately, and not eating much of her food. I came home today, at 1500, and she was asleep, and has been since. She's done this for a couple days now. Is this typically when Beardies start brumating?

    White sac in stool?

    Good mornin', Beardie lovers! I woke up this morning and found a white sac in my Beardies stool. Is this normal? Can anyone tell me what it is? The sac was about the size of a quarter, and was soft. I just rescued her on Friday, so I don't have much experience with them. She's been a little...

    Good evening! My newly rescued beardie has been on sand her whole life. I just switched her over to tile this afternoon, and she has nonstop been clawing at it. Is this normal for beardies when they switch substrate? Thanks
