I did thank you! He's not stargazing it would seem...the pictures I've seen of stargazing beardies are pretty extreme. He doesn't watch the light like the stargazers...just seems mesmerized by it and turns his head only to view the light. I think he's just an oddball because he seems happy...

I have one VERY happy beardie today!! Look at what came in the mail for him today!! He liked his hornworms the best! My husband is freaked out by them...apparently they look like birthday candles...I suppose I can see that.

Apparently I let my first journal go too long and now its locked. Oops! :P Dracarys is doing great! He's getting long, almost 17.5 inches at this point. I wish he'd gain a little more weight but we are getting there slowly but surely. Took him to Petsmart today to pick up my dog's allergy...

The Mother of Dragons is getting quite large! And beautiful!! :)

So, I have searched and looked both online and in the forum and maybe I'm not searching the right phrases. And I'm not sure if this is a behavior or a health thing so I guess we'll see what everyone says. Dracarys is eating fine (two to three times daily with proper gut loading and dusting...

So sorry for your loss! But yes, you will love your beardie from Cheryl! They are beautiful and healthy!

Dracarys is approximately 8 months old and 17.5 inches long but only weighs about 216 grams. I'm starting to think he might be underweight?! Maybe not.

HI there! I work in a hotel in Florida. We don't accept pets but like another poster said, you can request no service if it won't bother you to not change your sheets every other day. You can either hang dry and reuse your towel or ask the housekeeper for fresh towels only in exchange for the...

It sounds like he's still just settling in. When my little guy came, I would let him sleep/burrow in one of my old shirts that I wore to sleep. He got used to my scent that way. Also, about 15 minutes after lights out, I'd take him out, put him on my chest and covered him with his 'blankie'...

Sounds like Freddy is starting to get more settled. My Drac didn't eat like a normal baby beardie for almost 3 weeks. He eats like a champ now though!! Good luck with Freddy!

We used a little high sided plastic tub when Drac was little but now that he can jump out of that, we use the bathtub. I keep the water a little warmer than lukewarm but definitely still comfortable enough for a baby. I put a washcloth down and his old herp-hotel for him to climb out of the...

Well, the cricket cage has been cleaned, dried, added a substrate (coconut husk) and threw away all my old egg crate and didn't have anymore but created some cardboard bridge/tunnel things out of some old boxes and also gave them an old fishtank decoration with lots of crawley/hidey places...

OMG! I saw this happening! Before the mass die off. I know they get flipped on their back sometimes but usually they are quick to flip themselves over!! When I would actually see them on their back and twitching, I'd remove them...thought something was wrong. Then they all just died stupid...

Thats some great information. Thanks. When I was keeping 1000, I kept them in a very large rubbermaid bin. It was long and deep. They had plenty of egg crates. When that whole box basically died, I moved them to the 20 gallon tank that Drac was in before he outgrew it for his 4x2x2. I did...

I am in Florida so it does get VERY warm here, however, I have to keep the house cooler as I have an English Mastiff who can't tolerate the heat. The house does not go above 79 during the day and we only drop the temp to 76 at night, 75 at the lowest. And they are absolutely kept indoors much...

Armstrong was where I got my last shipment from. I do have egg crates in there for them as well as some toilet tissue roll holder things. I think I'll give Armstrong another shot. Because I don't think it was their fault...I think maybe I didn't clean the enclosure well enough after the last...

I would end up with a cricket virus. Drac is still somewhat small so he's eating small to medium size so I am pretty sure my crickets are fairly young. I'll have to start over again tomorrow. I'll clean the heck out of the enclosure and then go buy some new jumpers. Thanks for the input.

Hi there. Hoping someone might have a suggestion. On two occasions I have ordered boxes of 1,000 crickets from two different vendors. I was storing them in a rubbermaid bin with air holes and their egg crates with Flukers Cricket Quencher and Flukers Cricket Diet or whatever its called. I'll...

Yay! Welcome home Hunter!

Me too now! I have no idea. He's never been that excited over food that doesn't move before, lol.
