    Poop Problems and Possible Fingerpainting

    So, Merlin seems to have an odd problem of getting his poop absolutely everywhere. He makes a mess about 5" in diameter with a little bit of normal poop flung somewhere in the viv. Yesterday he pooped on a notebook of mine (thanks) while out and about it was fine, as was the one a day or to...

    Heat + ReptiWorms

    Well, summer is in full swing and Merlin is loving the outdoors, but his food is getting a little faint. It's been pretty hot the last three days or so and his ReptiWorms just expired a little early. Now, I have a bit of a problem. I love ReptiWorms. They are so gosh darn convenient as far as...

    Leashes and Harnesses

    The weather is heating up, the yard is almost dry, and soon the grass will be growing again, which means that it is time for Merlin to experience the great outdoors. While I'm sure he will be extremely happy about this, I'm the one left worrying in the corner. My most recent dilemma is about...

    Reptisun T5 vs. T5 HO

    What's the difference? From my readings and basic understanding of light bulbs the HO should be better, but it's half the price. Am I missing something or has PetCo gone a bit wobbly? The T5 is $50 with the T5 HO is $25. I'd rather get the HO because a) it's cheaper and b) it'd fit in the viv...

    Dusting ReptiWorms

    How often should I be dusting my ReptiWorms? Should I continue the weekly multivitamin? How often, if ever, should I be dusting them with calcium ? ReptiWorm's site says that they have enough calcium in them, but I'm still a little unsure and would like a second oppionion. Thanks guys

    Only Eating Once a Day

    Hello, Merlin came barreling into our home exactly one week ago in the form of my sisters barded dragon. He's been great so far, but he will only eat once a day, in the morning. Any other time we put him in his box with some crickets he just looks around then tries to jump out. Today I threw in...

    Freezing Vegetables

    Hello, I'm getting my Bearded Dragon tomorrow and just went down to get him some vegetables. The only problem is that I don't think there is any way for him to eat everything, or even most of it, before it all rots. Could I cut up some and freeze the rest? When I'd need more I'd just thaw it out...
