    Both eyes closed for most of the day?

    Hey guys, Nova is 5 years old and never had previous health issues. He uses a reptisun 10 that's approximately 1.5 feet away plus a 75w zoomed basking bulb at 90-95 degrees Today I observed that he would not open either eye more than a squint. I pet him and no changes, even during a bath he...

    Not eating as much as when he was younger?

    Hello all, Nova is coming up on being 11 months old now and he used to eat about 100 phoenix worms a day when he was younger. This past month or two he has only been eating about 25 or so a day. Is it normal for them to eat less as they mature? Everything else seems normal.

    Occasional pushing in and out of beard, weird noise?

    Hello, I have had Nova since he was a baby, and have not really started holding him until now due to fear of hurting his small body. Now that he is 6 months old I have started holding him a little bit more. I have noticed that occasionally he likes to push in and out his beard, it is not black...

    Anyone else having trouble with Reptiworms?

    Hello all, until now I have always had pretty good service from Reptiworms.com. However, I ordered my worms 10 days ago and have yet to receive something that has always been priority mail 2 day. The tracking link provided only says that USPS was notified of the order, not that they ever...

    Dropped baby 3 ft. on to carpet

    Hey guys, I'm a little bit concerned if this has happened to anyone else. I was putting little Nova back into his enclosure when he started squirming, I knew he was going to try and jump so I tried to get as close to the ground as I could. He ended up jumping about 3 feet onto a carpet, I...

    Is this a healthy tail?

    Hey guys, I just got my first dragon 5 days ago. So far so good, he/she's starting to eat more every day. I was curious about it's tail though, It has been a lighter color since I received it, and also has a couple spots of black in there. I'm not sure if that's just it's color, or if that could...

    Temp gun showing different results then probe?

    Hey guys, I have both a temp gun and a acurite thermometer with a probe. The probe says that the temp is a perfect 108, but when I hit the surface with my temp gun from 2" away it only reads 100-102. Which one is accurate and why? I am using a repti basking 100W bulb in my 40 gallon breeder with...

    Fire and Ice Dragons?

    Hey guys, I recently made a decision without much research. I ordered a 7" 50/50 Citrus/fire red Beardy from Fire and Ice Dragons for $215 which will ship to me on Monday, and then decided for some reason, AFTER already giving them my cc info to do research. There is quite a lot of bad reviews...

    High humidity at night?

    Hello guys, I have a question about humidity. Using the lamps in the tank reduces the humidity to an acceptable 50% during the day. But at night it gets up to about 65%, since I'm in Florida. Is high night time humidity acceptable? Also, since it's usually always 65-70% throughout the house. Am...

    do I need to disinfect a rock from a garden store?

    Just what the title says, I bought a brick and I have already filed down all the edges and used hot water and soap on it, then sprayed it really good with wipeout 1. Is that good or should I still do something else?

    is my reptiworms temperature okay?

    Hello, I have bought a cheap 4 bottle wine cooler for $50. It states that it can get to 46 degrees, but on the highest setting my thermometer is only reading it at 55. And when I open it for a few seconds then it jumps to 57. Should I return it and get a better one?

    Is my thermometer accurate?

    Another question from me! I tried to purchase the 2 probe Acurite thermometer from Walmart, but they had none in stock. After trips to several stores, I bought a different one by acurite that measures temp and humidity and placed it directly under my basking spot which is a 100W halogen flood...

    Can I use a ceramic heat emitter for a basking spot?

    I'll be getting a beardie soon and am trying to work out my heating/lighting situation. I have a Flukers clamp lamp with a dimmer and a 100W CHE coming in the mail, can I use this instead of a basking light or do they need a bright light source? If I just leave my curtains open it would be...

    Nightcrawlers for babies/adults?

    Hey guys, I am about to purchase a bearded dragon. I previously owned a pacman frog who mostly ate crickets/nightcrawlers. I'm very interested in beardies, but I read on a care sheet that the babies eat up to 50 crickets a day! I was wondering if anyone has instead of feeding crickets, fed them...
