You need to get a higher % uvb bulb that the reptisun 2.0(at least the reptisun 10.0) I prefer the arcadia 12.0 from lightyourreptiles.com - they're the only company that imports arcadia into the USA... Im sure his problem is that he's not getting enough uvb

What size crickets are you feeding them at that size? The crickets should be no bigger than the space between their eyes or they will cause impaction. Also him vomitting could be cause from the crickets being too big.

Not at problem, hope your little girl gets feeling better :)

You dont want her to get any closer to the bulbs than 6 inches, so if her basking spot is 5 inches you're gonna want to lower it. If she gets to close to the UVB bulb it can do more harm than good(blindness is one possibility)... If you have to get a bigger basking bulb because her basking temp...

Oh my bad, i thought you said you had reptisun 10.0... If you want to get the reptisun 10.0 bigappleherp.com has an awesome deal on them right now 2 tubes for roughly 35$ 18-48 inch all same price. Or lightyourreptiles.com has the arcadia 12% tube(i personally use these) I would get one of these...

The only thing i have seen in bearded dragons known to cause seizures is MBD. Another symptom of MBD ive seen is muscle twitching(spasms you're talking about) The fact that the pet store told you to quit the calcium just doesnt seem right to me. Also with the reptisun 10.0 tube they dont need...

Im glad to hear you got him to take more than he has been for you :) so is this 5ml of water with critical care only for a short while? is he supposed to take medication mixed in with the water or is that a separate amount you have you give him? If its separate and you just have to worry about...

My opinion i would get the Arcadia 12% from lightyourreptiles.com... $33.99 for one bulb(plus shipping)... the reptisuns are very good bulbs, but i prefer the arcadia 12% myself

All my beardies love their arcadia 12% bulbs, i noticed when i got my first one how much their colors brightened up, and they got more alert/energetic. Rack system is almost complete will post pics when i am finished :)

From the looks of it that it part of the egg sack that should be absorbed. Most of the time its recommended to leave them in the incubator anywhere from 12-24 hours maybe even longer... 24 hours is the most recommended ive seen... and in the time they are left in the incubator the egg sack...

Well heres the good news... wake up this morning and he went poo last night, very odd though... its in little spots all over the tank, and a couple places looks like he was trying to go and walk at the same time so its kinda smudged (TMI i know, lol) At least he went to the bathroom, i still...

Update, well today was day 4 without the desert 50 coil bulb and he seemed to be feeling a lot better today, both eyes open and walking around a lot more. I couldnt even keep him on my lap to feed him his pumpkin, lol... He definitely seems to be feeling a lot better, but i still dont see any...

It might be something that works great for you, and it might work for mine, i just dont feel comfortable doing something like giving a stool softener to my baby beardie yet, im not very experienced at all yet, so i think im going to stick to the pumpkin and prunes with olive oil and giving...

I wasnt planning on trying the stool softener, im going to try the canned pumpkin and baby food prunes with veg/olive oil mixed in today with a long baths and massages

Thanks for the suggestion synn, ill have to try that. He seems to be feeling like his old self he just still wont eat on his own.

Well heres an update... still no bowel movement from the little guy, although he seems to be more alert since i removed the coil uvb bulb, got a 24inch arcadia 12% on the way to replace the coil bulb. Hopefully i can get him to do the dirty deed today with a few baths and massages. Any other...

I normally have a very hard time administering fluids as well, and its definitely got to be more difficult because of the stress you're both going through with the whole ordeal. I would suggest handling him as much as possible through out the day to try and regain the trust there. (Im not sure...

Oh I forgot to mention, he's on repti-carpet, so theres no loose substrate... I gave him some veg oil today, i felt so bad the little guy was making it seem like i was committing murder via feeding syringe. He swallowed the oil like a little champ though. Ive double checked at triple checked my...

Hi, my name is Justin, and i recently got a baby bearded dragon(about 6 inches). When i first got him in the mail he was eating on small dubia(roughly 1/4inch) and his greens(kale, collard greens, and mustard greens) like a kid in a candy shop, and after i cleaned his tank a few days ago i have...
