Hi all, I used to be a very active member here back when Slim was a little guy. Here's his original board: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=181836 He's now 5 years old and, up until recently, was very healthy... but we're running into some skin problems now. I wish I had pictures to show but he...

Hi guys, I finally got an open, lightweight fluorescent light strip to put in Slim's tank so that he can get unobstructed UVB exposure (his ReptiSun was on top of the tank in a hood originally, obstructed by mesh). Yay! Only thing, though, is that I'm concerned about his eyes. I know I've...

Hi everyone! I have a 3 year old beardie and for a good portion of his life, his UVB bulb was situated on top of his tank (over the mesh) I recently rectified this by getting the custom hooks off beardeddragon.co to hang his hood inside the tank, but the hood was too heavy and the hooks broke...

EDIT: Sorry, I just realized this is in the wrong thread! I'm not sure how to delete it, so hopefully the mods can? I'll post this in Health in the meantime. Hi guys, I think Slim may have a slight case of MBD. He doesn't have an entire underbite--the very tip of his mouth/lips line up just...

I ordered a variety pack for my very picky beardie and, long story short, wound up with lots of dead repti worms and maybe about 10 soldier flies. Can beardies eat these? Do they have any nutritional value? :study:

Hello! So my adventurous little boy decided to take a flying leap from the couch into the Christmas tree this morning. It was hilarious, so I promptly started snapping a few photos--when I heard some munching sounds. He was mostly just licking around to explore his surroundings, but got a few...

Hi all! So my adult beardie slim used to absolutely love his veggies... I'd usually give him greens or escarole with squash baby food and some calcium & bee pollen and he'd gobble it all up. But then he went into a several month-long brumation in which he ceased eating entirely, and now that...

Hi all, been a while since I've posted on here. My mom brought my home a container of horn worms from the Petland by me, and since they usually come with little poop pellets, I don't think she noticed anything weird about all the little things clinging to the sides of the container... These...

Hey all, Ive had my beardie for several months now and he hasn't had a very good appetite, and i'm starting to think it's for lack of uvb because i have his bulb in a hood on the outside of the tank. his tank is only 12" deep, so it's hard to find a fixture small enough to mount in there...

Hey all, I've had my beardie Slim for a little over 6 months now and I'm assuming he's around 9 months old. Over the past few weeks, I've noticed that he has taken little to no interest in his feeders (mainly, superworms). He may eat one or two per day, but for the most part, he's interested...

Hey guys, You may have seen my posts around the boards lately (the most recent and important one being viewtopic.php?f=61&t=186943). Slim was on Albon for 5 weeks for Coccidia and it didn't work. He still has a 4 count. I'm waiting on some Toltrazuril in the mail, but today brought another...

Hey all, My little guy has coccidia and has been fighting them for some time now. Albon didn't do the trick so I'm going to try Toltrazuril. I ordered one dose from Tracie, but I was wondering, should I get more than that? I heard it usually kicks it in one dose but I'm not sure... Here is...

Hey all... So this is just absolutely odd. I've heard of undigested phoenix worms showing up in our little beardies' poo, and witnessed that today. There was one wrapped up in his poop which made sense since he decided to scarf them down at an ungodly pace. But what freaked me out was finding...

Hey all, I have a ~7 mo. old baby boy and he was diagnosed with pinworms and a 5+ count of coccidia about a month and a half ago. The doctor put him on Albon (1.5 ml once per week) and Panacur for 5 weeks, and the pinworms are now gone. However, his coccidia count is still at about 4. I don't...

Hey there, Slim is 5 months old and, until he started treatment for pinworms and coccidia about a week ago, has been a ball of energy and appetite. The vet even commented on how alert he seems. But since starting a 1.5ml dose of albon (1 dose per week for 5 weeks) and a small dosage of Panacur...

Hey all, So I was just wondering since I saw a few differing opinions... when you use PWs as a staple (figure, 2 meals per day), do you supplement with calcium at all? Maybe sprinkle a bit on the veggies? I just want to make sure my little guy gets enough but I don't want to overdo it. I...

Slim has coccidia :cry: and I want to beat this as quickly as possible. I've read up on it a lot, but I want to see what you guys think about my setup. Here is the information that I shared with Ohsmileb, who is being an awesome help in this Coccidia thing. I figured I'd post it here and in his...

I haven't seen anything about this around, which makes me inclined to believe they can't be, but I figured I'd ask anyway.

Hey all, So I have a Reptisun 10.0 high output bulb for UVB, as recommended. I got one of those Zoo-med reflector hoods specifically for Reptisuns, and since acquiring that, it's been sitting over the mesh on my tank. Now, I know that the tank mesh filters out some of the UVB, so I was...

This is long overdue (~5-6 years?!?) but I wanted to say RIP and I'm so, so sorry to my little Anole, Damion: misspelled due to being a stubborn teenager. I won him unexpectedly at a street fair and had to run into Petland to purchase what I thought was everything he needed. Now, owning a...
