    cleaning slate tiles?

    I feel dumb asking but what is safe to use on the slate tile in our custom enclosure? I need to clean it pretty bad. It's been spot cleaned I just need to do the thorough one. Thanks everyone!

    Reddish pink poop?

    I try to feed yoshi twice a day but he usually spends the first part of the day in his hide. I do offer twice a day though. It just seems he starts his days later and later and wants to stay up all night. I have lights on about 730-800 am and then lights out around 800pm. But he will stay up...

    Odd behavior.

    Thank you both yoshi is about to go through a shed, and when I place him on his rock in normally does make him more active. I think because I bought a smaller size cricket he might not be interested in them like he normally would be. I do have one other question now though, yoshi just pooped...

    Just finished up our first custom enclosure!

    Our one bearded dragon, swamp fire, has been in a 20 gallon terrarium (he's no more than 4 months) and I could tell he was just over being in there. So the husband and i decided to give making a custom enclosure a try! It's worked out pretty well so far, the only thing left is to put in and...

    Weight question

    I was just wondering how fast Juvenile/baby beardies should gain weight? We've had yoshi since mid august and his first time he was weighed was october 10 and he was 53 grams (He does have a part of his tail missing) and today he was 125 grams!!! (this really shocked me, in a good way)...

    treatment cost?

    Thank you! I did end up just taking in fecals to the vet, terrified of what they would find. I paid 57 total for both dragons. Good news though They said they didn't have any parasites! I was really shocked because the vet himself said that he normally sees dragons with parasites, though...

    treatment cost?

    Money has been really tight for us lately. I have managed to save up enough to get fecals for both our beardies done. I haven't taken them in yet, but before I do I wanted to see about how much it costs for parasite treatment. I'm terrified that I won't be able to afford keeping them...

    where do you?

    Where do you order your crickets from online? I've only ordered from flukers and I'm really not impressed, their crickets sizes are FAR from consistent. First order was great second order was too big, third order was too small. I feel like I've thrown away money ordering from them. I'm...

    thinking of switching to Phoenix worms.

    I just ordered some from pheonixworm.com and they have a sample pack available for 5.99. I ordered the medium ones, and with shipping itcame out to 11ish dollars. Just to give you a heads up before you make a huge purchase (and spend about $30) to see if they are interested in them!

    probiotics and eating less?

    They definitely hate being syringe fed! I do give baths about once every 3 days with the reptisafe water additive in it. Sometimes they drink it sometimes they don't. How much would I use to dust their veggies? Just sprinkle some on the top? And No I haven't tried any feeders with them...

    probiotics and eating less?

    I started my beardies on probiotics from the vet this past saturday. It's benabac gel and a pain to give it to them. He wanted me to start them on this before I got the fecal tests done because he said that normally every beardie he sees has a parasite that they have to treat. So starting...

    Dig box?

    When I was at the vet the other day they recommended a dig box for my beardies. I already know that a shallow steralite/rubbermaid container will work but what can I fill it with that is safe to use? all advice is appreciated! :]

    Did a belly flop...

    so I was holding swamp fire, getting ready to hand him to my husband (who was seated thank heavens!) and swamp fire decided to make a break for it. As I was leaning down he leaped off my hand onto the floor and ran underneath the couch!! Thankfully we caught him (With me so stressed my legs...

    Small rant.

    This is a small petsmart rant. Before I knew a lot about beardies, (which I still don't know much) I bought ours from there. I had to run there real quick to grab some feeding tongs with my kids (4 and 6) in tow. So we stopped to look at the beardies. They had 4-5 in there that I could see...
