    any advice? Spock just isn't eating

    We're still in a cycle of Spock not eating. No matter what we offer she just isn't interested. We give her a bowl of greens daily and replace them if they dry out during the day as well. We buy a mix of collard, mustard, turnip, and dandelion that we find available at the local grocery...

    What to do with my colony, Spock won't eat roaches anymore

    I started a Dubia colony back in Jan, it is thriving, but now Spock has gotten super picky and will only eat a Dubia once in a blue moon. Honestly she's not eating much of anything, but that's another post (she's been seen by a vet and is clean if parasites and her set up is spot on, she's...

    Spock's eating habits have gotten very strange

    In March Spock seemed to go into a semi-brumation, she was down for a week, we took her out to bath her, she was up for a week and then went back down again. We had trouble getting her to poop after she got back up again and took her to the vet. She had lost some weight (went from 304-277g) so...

    Only eating supers after a hunger strike and brumation

    Hi all, We've had Spock for about 11 months now, she's almost 16" long and now weighs about 317g. A little over a week ago we took her to the vet because she hadn't pooped in a month and was eating very little. Before that she went through what seemed to be a weird brumation. She was down for...

    Is this a weird brumation cycle or just an odd dragon

    We got Spock in May from petsmart. She wasn't doing well for a while and then we got her a bigger home (went from 20G to 40G breeder) and she perked up and grew like a weed. As of Early Feb she was 15.5" long and 296g. She has some nice rocks and a log in her tank (all stuff from the local...

    Looks like Spock is really a girl.

    Yep, took her to a local shop that has the best reptile guys ever working there and they confirmed that Spock is indeed a girl! :) She's really coming into her own personality wise and is such an awesome dragon. Isn't she beautiful!

    Help Spock had had Diarrhea for 2 days

    Spock has had diarrhea for 2 days, my vet can't see him until Monday, and they won't do a fecal cytology until the vet sees him. Is there anything I can do over the weekend to try and help? The poo is very runny, not formed other than the white urates. You can see undigested roaches and...

    Spock is eating like a madman, please tell me this is ok

    Hello all, Spock seems to be getting more active lately. I'm amazed at how much he's eating. I posted in my Beardie Tales post that he's routinely eating his salads, which he wasn't before. This morning he ate about 8 pieces of collard each is about the size of a nickel as well as some...

    Spock has moved to a 40g breeder, need more heat

    Hello all, Over the weekend we surprised our daughter and bought Spock a 40g breeder tank as her Solstice gift and gave it to her early. He's got a reptisun 10.0 UVB tube that's 24" long mounted inside the tank and a 100W exoterra intense heat bulb in a deep dome fixture that hangs about 1/2"...

    Got my Dubia Colony starters today need bigger UTH?

    Today I got my Dubia Starter Colony in the mail. I have an 18g sterlite tote (looks like this http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sterilite-18-Gallon-72-Quart-Storage-Box-Set-of-8/10401037) and bought a 10-20 gallon UTH but the thermometer I'm using says it's only 78.6º on the bottom where the heater is...

    So glad we decided to try Dubias

    We got our Dubia roach shipment today from Dubideli.com. Let them eat and stuff for a few hours and then decided to see if Spock would like them. I put 2 of them in a small plastic dish and just held them near him on his basking rock. He snatched them right up. My daughter picked up a pepper...

    Spock's Tale - Dec update has been posted

    Hi all, We're new to the forums. This is Spock, he's about 5 months old. Yes he's small, he had some parasite issues when we first got him. He's doing well now though and hopefully will start to grow faster now. He should be getting a new 40Gallon home come the holidays. He still won't...

    Just placed my first order for Dubias, have ?s

    My daughter has a 5 month old dragon named Spock. He's a real cutie and seems active and happy. He's been fed Phoenix worms for all but the first 2 weeks she had him. He would never eat crickets, so we thought we'd try dubias for some variety. He is 9.5" long and when I weighed him today he...

    Hello, meet Spock

    Hello all, My daughter purchased a bearded dragon from Petsmart the end of May. We just found this site and hope to become very active on the boards here. He started out pretty small, weighed only 7gms when we took him to the vet a week after getting him for his new patient consult. He's...
