I have a nearly 11 month old male German giant / Sandfire cross. I will have the pleasure of picking up his lovely mail order bride on June 1St. She is a two month old citrus tiger leatherback het for trans het hypo. Could some explain the het trans hypo portion to me? Anyone else set up a...

Hi everyone. I've bred dragons before many years ago, but they were normal colored dragons. Now I have a gorgeous male that has a german giant father and a sandfire mother named Zydrunas. When fully lit up he is a very vivid dark to light orange. I would like to breed him, but don't know much...

Hi. My buddy Zydrunas is 8 months old today. Up until recently he was a great eater, just about constantly shedding. I have a dubia colony but it's only a couple months old and not ready to feed from yet. Previously I had been getting my crickets shipped from Flukers with no problems. I just...

Hi! He is quite the looker! Do you know how much he weighed and measured when he was 6 months old and/or now? I'm curious. My dragon has a sandfire Mom and a german giant Dad. Sampson, his Father, weighs over 940 grams.

Wow! How many of each did you start with, and how long have you had the colony?

My colony is finally at the right temp and humidity levels. I'm pretty sure at least one egg sack hatched at some point since I shook the egg crates today and at least 30 nymphs were on the bottom of the bin. I got my initial colony on January 11. I got additional adults and some mixed sizes...

After being unable to maintain proper temps for my dubia colony, I am going to begin using a ceramic heat emitter/dome fixture warm things up. Of the several wattage/sizes available, which one is correct? I have a 27 gallon rubbermaid bin. Thanks!

Hello from San Antonio!

Well, all the dubias made it through the night, just found a couple of sheds. They're active and eating. The temp never read above 78. I don't know how it's possible..... the bottom of the bin where the undertank heater is, is actually quite warm to the touch, yet right above it the air...

I got my shipment of roaches yesterday from Lance, only one small juvenile didn't make it, the rest were in perfect condition. So, after doing my online reading I had their 27 gallon tote bin ready, 12 X 12 egg crates etc. I used a drill to make holes in the lid for ventilation, so that should...

Oh cool, what a great idea to check bakeries. Thanks!

As always, thanks so much for the replies. The kit Lance offers for $25.00 is 5 adult males, 5 adult females and 200 - 300 mixed size. I asked if I could purchase extra adults, but his reply said he only offered the kits as listed. I would like to get more adults. My plan is to continue the...

Despite being completely grossed out but unable to deny the benefits any longer, I will be getting my new dubia colony from Lance this week. I already have the 27 gallon opaque bin with the rececessed bottom where I attached an undertank heater, fresh batch of water crystals, a pile of roach...

Despite emailing a very clear, direct question to Mulberry Farms, after several hours, the only response from them stated only that they now carry the "banded cricket". I sent a rapid response asking for more clarification and information about their new strain. So far, no response, and I am...

Immediately upon reading this, I emailed Mulberry and specifically asked what species of cricket, including scientific name, do they now carry. In the interim, I am hoping that it isn't the bad assimilus Jamaican field cricket because Mulberry described them as wingless, the description of the...

Gorgeous dragon! Don't worry, you and your new friend are already off to a great start. Can't wait to see new pics. Dawn

Hi Korey, I'm pretty new here myself. Welcome to the list. I learn something new every time I sit down and read the boards, which is at least once or twice a day. I had to revamp my little Ellie's set up after finding this board. The group here is a fantastic resource. Is your new baby's tank...

So far I have been ordering my crickets from Flukers, with absolutely no complaints. Wanting to add some nutritional variety, I decided to order some phoenix and small super worms for Ellie. Mulberry Farms came recommended and carries all the varieties I wanted to try in addition to the staple...

WooHoo! Thanks for the replies Noel and Morphmom. Keep 'em comin. Tattoos, love to here their stories as well, but I digress. I believe pets do all they can to tell us everything we need to know, including what to call them. I even have a funny Luna story.... With another family, but forever...

In our home, naming things generally comes under my kingdom, our vehicles have names, our favorite fishing rods have names, so does my shotgun, even my big Kitchensaid stand mixer is named Betty White. So, I would *love* to hear how all those precious beardies out there got their names! My...
