goodbye Agni. thanks for being my buddy for 5 years for cheering me up when i was down for making me laugh with your antics for being a solid presence that never let me down when i needed one enjoy the endless bug and salad bar in the sky, where the temps are always perfect and theres always...

so what parts of various veggies are ok for beardies to eat? looking for how to prepare the various gourds and peppers that i can feed him, but im not sure which parts of them to give him

would like to know the ideal temp range for a 3 year old his basking spot/hide is a resin/ceramic turtle shell. i currently have his heat lamp set up so as to have a narrow spot, about a 5 in circle at around 110F at the highest point of the shell, and down to around 90F at the base of the...

unsure if this is the right forum my buddy Agni has been showing some rather wild brumation changes his first year he slept like a rock from the end of October to the middle of April his second year, he slept like a rock, but woke up REALLY early, middle of Febuary, with a couple of feet of...

i'm considering building a hamster ball like thing for Agni to run around outside without danger (we've got a lot of hawks and other such birds around here). i'll have to build one, because i cant find an actual hamster ball big enough to accomidate him safely. what's the general safety...

so a few months ago, i got Agni a turtle shell as a basking spot/hide. when i first put it in, he spent so much time in the hide, he developed MBD. i caught it super early, removed the hide, and he recovered just fine. had vet visits and everything to make sure for the past few weeks, he's...

a few days ago he was dancing on the glass, and generally wanting to be out and about and cuddling for the last 4 days however, he doesn't want to leave his hide. he'll tolerate petting, and will let me pick up up and take him out of his tank, but he'll immediately buttwiggle and fall asleep on...

behold, the BEARDED TURTLE!

so, it appears Agni has reached the stage of growth where his diet switches from mostly live to mostly veggies. he's been vacuuming up his veggies every day for a few weeks, and only eating a 2-4 superworms every couple of days, and he's pooping every few days as well. I'm a little concerned...

this morning he started frantically running circles in his tank, trying to climb the glass, wont sit still he is shedding, but he's never acted like this before. I thought he wanted to come out and explore, so I put him on the floor and went a few yards away to watch. his beard went black in a...

Agni just hit the 17 inch mark, but he still has the body and head shape of a baby. he's not looking anything like any of the full grown dragons ive seen on here. his head isn't nearly triangular enough, the base of his tail isn't thick enough, and his body certainly isn't like that of adult...

I've been using the zoomed intense basking bulbs for Agni, and quite frankly, im getting sick of them. they're too yellow, and focus all their heat in a small area, making it difficult to get the temp dialed in right. any suggestions on alternative heat lamps? preferably with links to a store...

it been a month or so since my last post about this subject, and it seems to have gotten worse he gets around 20 phoenix worms in the morning, which he almost always eats however, after those, he'll refuse any food at all until its nearly his bedtime. he also refuses to touch anything that's...

he just finished shedding this shed cycle, and I got a variety pack from lindagonebuggy he'll only eat one or two silkworms, one or two hornworms, he used to love supers, now he'll only eat a few of those. he wont touch crickets anymore, roaches are out of the question, and he'll barely touch...

he's shedding his beard, and his back/belly, but hes never outright refused food before during a shed. he'll eat 10-15 crickets and 2-4 supers in the morning, but lunch and dinner he either eats a single super, or outright refuses to eat. he's active and alert, has plenty of energy for running...

Agni began shedding his legs last Monday, and 3 out of 4 came off nice and easy his back left leg, however, only shed half way, from the knee to the foot from the knee up to the body, it doesn't seem to want to come off. it's waxy, and I've seen it peeling a few times, but the peeling part...

so I ran out of crickets this week, and ordered some from ghanns farm instead of the brown crickets im used to, they switched to banded crickets. in some ways theyre excellent, they aren't as noisy, don't smell as bad, have less chitin,, and are pretty hearty. however there's some bad points...

I've been noticing a gradual color shift as Agni has grown and shed, but I haven't been able to pun down what his adult colors may be Today, however he shed his head and tail, and some striking colors emerged He now has a bright orange ring around each eye, and his tail has a long red streak...

I'm moving from Maryland to PA tomorrow, its about a 4-5 hour drive during this time, Agni will have minimal access to UVB, and almost no access to heat, except for being set in a travel container on the dashboard I'm not going to be able to feed him either, because of lack of heat for...

normally Agni poops twice a day for the last week or so, he's only been pooping once a day. they're well formed, good urate color, but he does release a LOT of extra liquid when he poops. clear liquid. his appetite is close to bankrupting me, and his lighting is all spot on. he's active, and...
