    Warming stations

    Hi I let my dragon free roam a lot of the time because he hates to be in his viv. I want to set up a hot spot by the window where he likes to sit and look out, but I have no idea how. If possible, I'd like to use a MVB to be sure he gets his uvb. Once I tried using a desk lamp with 60 watt...

    My Dragon's nail fell off!!

    Philip jumped out of hand today and landed on the counter top. When he hit, the outer covering of one his nails popped off, leaving him with just the center intact. At first he was shaking his hand because it obviously hurt, but now, he's getting around just fine. I'm a little freaked out...

    Dubia males escaping

    Over the past few months I have finding random male dubias around my house. Most of the time they were dead so it didn't bother me much. I figured they were fluttering out of the bin when I was lifting the egg crates. Last night, however, freaked me out. My dog woke me up because he was...

    Not shedding

    About two weeks ago my dragon shed the skin around his lips. That's usually the first part of that sheds. I noticed he was having problems and part of it was retained and I had had to help it off with soakings. Now the rest of him over the past two weeks has been very pale looking like it's...

    Dubia Nymphs not Growing

    Hi My dubia colony doesn't seem to have a problem producing babies, it's just, the babies aren't growing very fast. I have a heating pad under the bin, offer roach chow and fruits and veggies and water crystals. What could be the problem? Oh, a couple of them are growing, but most aren't. It...

    Humidity Problems

    I discovered today that my dragon has a URI and tomorrow he's going to the vet. I have no idea how he got it. He's always been very healthy, except two days ago he started gasping and today he's wheezing with bubbles coming out of his nose :( I suspect it's the humidity. It's at 46%. Since...

    Harness troubles

    Does anyone have any advice on getting my dragon used to his new harness. He absolutely hates it, and struggles like crazy to get it off. I don't want him to start to hate me.

    Dead Crickets!!!

    OK, so this morning I took out my cricket colony and noticed a ton of them were dead because their food had become moldy. I'm going to see which ones I can salvage and clean their bin really well. My question is, is it safe to feed the survivors?

    My dragon is 13 inches now, and I was wondering what size should he be before I offer him a full grown roach? Thanks!

    How many phoenix worms?

    My dragon is 10 inches and I want to place an order for 1000 of them at The Phoenix Worm Store, but I want to make sure he can eat them all before they pupate. So, my question is, can a bearded dragon eat 1,000 worms in about 3 weeks or so? Thanks!

    Crickets are NASTY!

    I just got a shipment of 1000 in yesterday morning, and boy are they discusting :puke: I can't believe I was scared to order dubias. Compared to crickets the roaches are a dream come true. They STINK, and they give off some type of nasty moisture that got their food and paper towel damp...

    Too full?

    Is it possible for a dragon to eat way too much and make themselves sick? Phillip ate 7 roaches that were right at the size limit for him. He also ate 6 crickets. Now he's bloated looking and basking with some serious stress marks. Is he OK?

    What size bulb?

    My little dragon has been keeping one of his eyes closed lately and I think it might be the MVB I have. So, I was thinking of switching to the reptisun bulb. I want to get this 24" fixture, and need to know what size bulb...

    Neck Size

    What's the average neck size for an adult beardie? I think I'm going to have a custom collar made for mine. Not to attach a leash to, but just to fancy him up on outings :)

    Boy or Girl?

    I can't determine if Phillip is a boy or girl. Two bumps means boy. One means girl, but nowhere does it mention a heart shaped bump :dontknow:

    Phillip, My new dragon!

    After many, many years of wanting, and several months of preparing I finally got my dragon! I was going to wait and order one from a breeder online, but today, when I went to Petsmart I knew I just had to have him. He was the prettiest baby and was sold to me as a fancy dragon for an extra...

    MVB Temp

    I've had my powersun MVB on for an hour now and temp is only reading 98 degrees. The bulb is 160 watts and 12 inches from the basking surface. I thought it was going to be a lot hotter than that. Does it just take a while the first time it's used?

    Breeding wax worms?

    Has anybody done this? I watched a few u-tube videos about it, and it doesn't look too difficult, but I would like some first hand opinions. Sorry guys, it looks like I put this in the place. I thought I was in the Feeders section.

    Slate Tiles

    I got some slate tiles for the floor of my future dragon's tank, and am wondering if I could silicone some to the back of the tank, or will it be too heavy and fall off?

    Freezing individual portions

    I'm still learning a lot about bearded dragon care, so please excuse all my crazy questions :) Back when I had sugar gliders I would freeze about a month or so worth of food in advance. I would portion daily amounts out in ice cube trays, freeze, store in freezer bags, and then thaw when I...
