My female Cortana, who is also right around 1 year old just woke up from a 6.5 month brumation about two weeks ago. She wasn't in a deep sleep but she just didn't move or leave her cave much. I was able to get her to eat superworms every once in awhile but that was about it. I just gave her a...

Good to know! I'll just unplug the lights. Thanks for the response!

No worries, thanks for the response!

I wasn't really worried about it until I saw the buildup inside the ear hole against the eardrum. Is that normal? For clarity consider the ear is a clock. The yellow build-up is from about 6 to 9 on the edge of the eardrum. You can see the yellow stuff slightly jutting out at about the 9...

I just noticed this around and inside Cortana's right ear. Does anyone have any clue what this is? She is getting ready to shed everything on her head except around her ears (the yellow is only on the right side). None of her vitamin or calcium powder is that color so I am not really sure...

I currently have a large custom build tank for my Bearded Dragon that consists of two separate enclosures connected by a bridge. Since Cortana (my beardie) never goes into the smaller tank (was supposed to be a feeding area) I am think of moving my girlfriends Leopard Geckos in since she is...

I have been working on a feeder colony of dubias for about 6 months now. It finally got to the level where I could use it as a daily feeder, and have been trying to since around late-December. The issue is that Cortana seems to hate them. Cortana is around 10 or 11 months (craigslist purchase...

I am in the planning stage of an adult enclosure right now. I stumbled across this http://ecozonevivarium.com/detail.aspx?ID=81 Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with this or know other similar devices? I am specifically looking for a sunrise/sunset feature and adjustable heat for...

I think she had a worm stuck somewhere in her throat that was wiggling around. I noticed it right after I gave her a phoenix worm that she scarfed down. She seemed very agitated but alert and breathing was rapid and panicked but she didn't seem to have difficulty actually getting air into her...

It could have been hiccups as well. A few times it didn't really seem bad, just a burst of air. Other times she was convulsing, gagging and visibly dry heaving. I was fairly confidant it wasn't too bad until she really freaked out one time. I can't really think of another way to describe it...

Edit: She seems fine now, nothing in the last 45 minutes and she is eyeing some crickets I left in sight of her cage. Cortana has been either dry heaving or coughing for the last hour. She seems very alert and her usual self, but her whole body is convulsing and expelling air. At one point she...

I noticed this morning that there were red parallel lines moving across my camera (iPhone) and appearing in pictures. Is it time for a new bulb (it is only 4 months old) or is something else going on? The lines do not appear on the other side of the tank. It only happens underneath the MVB...
