    Update I have made the decision about "quality of life"

    My dragon Kacey has ADV and has been deteriorating neurologically. This is a very long post just to warn you! I posted about this same issue with this same dragon July of last year but she has gotten worse. She was reportedly hatched around March 5, 2013 but I think that date is off about a...

    Lots of fluid here also?

    My boy Kaden is ADV+ as are all of my dragons. I am scared that he is having excess fluid in his belly. He is active and eats well. He walks around and seems to have no impairment. I am going to make an appt with the Vet when the office opens. It has been this way for a while. I thought it may...

    What does "Quality of Life" really mean?

    So..I finally took my boy Kacey to the vet to find out if he had MBD, or neurological issues that was causing him to walk on his knuckles and twitch. First it seems that Kacey is probably a SHE not a HE. The next thing is that her twitching and knuckling is not due to MBD her bones are fine. It...

    Neurological issues or MBD?

    All of a sudden my baby Kacey has started doing things like walking on his wrists. He has the proper lighting UVB and UVA. He is about 7 inches from the top near the lights when he wants to be. The general temps are 96-100 for the basking and 85-87 for the cool area. I have started him on liquid...

    Beardies health and growth

    I have 4 dragons which are all Atadenovirus positive. Two of them gave me a lot of stress and worry when they first came to me health-wise. I have always wondered what weight, and length was "normal" to make sure they are at the right size for their age. Everyone has been doing well now, no...

    I continue to be disgusted but not surprised

    I HAD to go to Petsmart today to get new temperature probes (my local independent pet store was out). This is the Petsmart where I bought my first dragon, not knowing any better. The boy I got from there was ADV positive and I went through a lot with making sure he did well. Every time I go in...

    Black spot under chin

    This has been on Konner's chin for a while but now I'm worried it might be something bad. He's shedding now and it hasn't done away. I'm not sure how long it's been there but it hasn't been getting bigger. I looked it up and some people have called pic of dragons with this as having fungal...

    crevices

    I am sooo tired of having to pry and scrub poop out of the crevices of the baking platforms that come from. What do you all do? I pick out the poop that is on the floor on the paper, but I'm sick of the poop that gets inside the little areas which is hard to reach. I find myself having to...

    Beardie ate Dubias who had been eating moldy food

    My ADV positive beardie has found to be eating Dubia which were eating moldy oats. He had lost 2 grams since yesterday. He is already taking doses of Chloramphenicol because it looks like he has what may be an abscess at the bottom of his lower lip by his mouth. He has been taking the med for...

    Atadenovirus Positive :( -

    I just got the results from the fecal swab testing and my boy Konner is positive for Atadenovirus. I have been paranoid about him since day one as he was my first beardie. He has been kind of sickly at times and sleeps/rests a lot. Recently he has been more alert and he takes an interest in the...

    Change the lighting NOW or wait?

    Hello, I am new here and I have been reading all of the posts about what to do for Beardies, especially young ones. I have one juvenile, Konner who I feel like I have his tank set up right (he has the ZooMed bulbs). I have a new baby (a little over 6 weeks old), Kaden who I just got...
