    Dubia Roaches dying/burned

    Update: I found 3 adults females dead inside the bin when I checked. When I touched them, they were like mushy and will break apart easily if put I a little pressure. And I noticed, they were something moving in the poo and inside some carcasses of roaches. I don't know what it is, but I read...

    Beardie Not Interested In Veggies

    Hi, Maybe you can try wiggling pieces of veggies in front of him and/or hand feeding him. You can try throwing little pieces of corn, grapes, peas, beans, etc. around him. He might think that it's an insect and will eat it immediately. I've watched a video about tips in feeding juvies...

    Tips for handling my new baby beardie

    Hey, Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new beardie! Now, since this is your first reptile, you should learn not to handle them much the first few days of receiving them. But, it's okay as long as it didn't do something major to your beardie. Anyways, you should let him...

    Dubia Roaches dying/burned

    Actually, they like the food I'm giving them. One cup of dry food only lasts a week or two. I got the idea because when I were providing it in a container at the middle of the bin, it lasts a whole month until only bits of oatmeals are left. I can't get ready-made cricket food because I'm from...

    Newbie from NY (Dexter Passed due to parasite)

    Hello! Congrats on your new Beardie! Anyways, it seems that you're using a compact type of UVB. You should buy the fluorescent type of Reptisun 10.0 as the compacts have issues (I forgot what those are, sorry! ) with bearded dragons. You can use an under-cabinet fixture for the UVB and it...

    Dubia Roaches dying/burned

    Pictures: (Sorry, my bin's a mess, dry food is everywhere because my roaches are lazy to go and eat in a container. If you're wondering about what's the thing with the packaging tape, it's cardboard that I rolled like a toilet paper tube. I encircled the dead roaches with the color red and...

    Dubia Roaches dying/burned

    Hey, I think I have a problem with my Dubia Roach Colony. Just the other day, I bought 77 females and over 400-500 juvies and added it to my existing colony. I bought them from two different breeders so, they most probably have unsimilar ways of taking care of the roaches. The second...

    Baby Bearded Dragon wont eat!

    Hey, No Problem.. That's just what fellow members do to help. Back to the topic.. Beardies are hardy creatures in nature. So a week of off-feeding is not unusual to them in the wild. You just have to try and provide him food and soaks in warm water everyday or every other. Later on...

    Wild caught hornworms

    Bump. I look forward to any response to the OP. :) I have the same interest because I live in the Philippines and none are willing to ship some internationally. It's not a big deal actually, because I often come across that problem. So my plan is to find some horn worms in our tomato...

    Baby Bearded Dragon wont eat!

    Hi! Congrats on getting a new beardie! Now, about your beardie, he's in a state called "relocation stress." You know that he's stressed when you see marks under his belly. Those are called 'stress marks.' And because of relocation stress, beardies often don't eat the first or second day...

    UVB Lighting and Screen Lid

    If you cut the screen lid, then it would lost its purpose of preventing insect feeders from getting out and vice versa. So I suggest putting the UVB inside the tank using 3M hooks. This gives you another advantage as you won't need to move the UVB when you want to get or feed your Beardie. Sacho~

    Dubia roaches in Canada?

    Hi, When I was searching for breeders that will ship internationally, someone suggested recorpinc.com They are based on Ontario, Canada I believe. But the only catch is they don't have roaches, which is what you're specifically searching, right? But they do have a variety of worms. They...

    Bearded Dragon Food

    Hi, I'd suggest giving him live feeders as staple so he can have a 'lively' :lol: meal. If you want, you can still give him the beardie bites along with his veggies. But because I don't really give them to my beardie, I can't really say anything much further. Sacho~

    How many worms for feeding?

    Hmm. I guess that depends on your dragon's appetite. It should be around the number of crickets you're feeding him. Sacho~

    How many worms for feeding?

    Hey, Exactly what kind of worms do you plan to feed him? Calci-worms can be fed as staple and has the same feeding principle with crickets. Feed him as many Calci-worms as he likes in a 5 minute session (I reduced it to 5 minutes because he's an adult already and doesn't need that much calcium...

    Unsure of the age and how often to feed him?

    Hey, Congratulations on becoming a Beardie parent! :D Anyways, you're dragon should be around 2-3 month old, I think. That means he's still a juvenile. Juveniles should be fed, like what BeautyBelle said, 60-80% insects and 20-40% greens. The insect diet should be varied, consisting of...

    Over feeding?

    Phoenix worms or any other brands of black soldier fly larvae are high in calcium, so you shouldn't worry about dusting them. I think they have the highest calcium content in all the feeders in the reptile trade. Sacho~

    Help with a dragon terrariums

    Hey, Beardies need ground space more than anything so you should pick the longest and widest one. But this still depends on the age of your beardie. Babies should have a 10-20 gallon tank so it will be easy for them to hunt for crickets and it is much easier to be accustomed to his/her new...

    Semi-urgent heating question

    If that's the case, then you should change her branch with another one that is inclined but has more flat space where you can put the probe. Or if you don't want to do any hard work, invest in another brand of temp. gun Note: The inclination is for a more varied temperature in the hot spot...
