Good Afternoon! My (about) three year old female beardie laid eggs a week ago. She seemed a little weak (she usually does after laying), I gave her a bath and gave her some dubia roaches and salad and she ate and drank just fine. Today was the first day she's had a bowel movement since laying...

Hey everyone! Thank you for reading this post! Dragons are going good! (although we found out that after two years, one of our females is a "he"! :shock: ) I bought some new UVB lights (not cheap) and when I received them, I noticed they were 36 inches instead of the 21 inch ones I normally...

Hey again! I (just very recently) acquired a 9 year old male Leopard Gecko from a friend. Does anyone have any advice on his UVB lighting or foods? It looks like he wasn't taken care of properly and has REALLY bad toes- I am assuming a poor shed or two. I will upload some pictures tomorrow. He...

Hey guys! So a few days ago one of my 1 1/2 year old beardies laid a clutch of 27 (!!!) unfertilized eggs. Since then she has been active, but really weak in her limbs. She is eating a bunch, as expected after laying. But what worries me is that her limbs feel very stiff? If I put her hand on my...

Hello! So I recently bought a microscope and did my first fecal float test of one of my dragons today. I can see some clear pinworm eggs (How many is too many?) In the portion of the slide I can see, there are maybe 3-5 pinworms. Is that enough to treat or should I leave it alone for now and...

Hello! I have two beardies and I cannot seem to find a heat light that does its job. I have tried Hallogen bulbs, ExoTerra heat bulbs, standard household lights- nothing gets the temps above 90-95. It is slowly driving me insane. Could it be the ceramic holders? I have no idea and at this point...

Hey guys! I have had my two dragons since October 2014 when they were a few months old. They've always had a varied diet with greens and different insects. They went into burmuation and they are both active again, however the only thing they will eat are Duba Roaches. They will eat a few bites...

Hello, My beardie was getting ready to shed her tummy, front two arms, and her beard and everything was normal. She shed (in flakes not in patches) and there were these spots on her afterwards. Underneath her armpit and under her beard. I have pictures, just not sure how to upload them. She...

Hello, I feel that my beardies do not have a sufficient diet. I feed the mealworms, superworms, super worm beetles, and mixed greens mostly. They both hate squash, is there anything else I can give them for more diversity? Thanks

So I have been getting on this site for a while, but just today figured out how to get pictures on here! I am honored for you to meet Athena and Calypso! This is Athena when we brought her home: https://www.beardeddragon.org/media/32827/full And this was her today...

Sorry, had a blonde moment with the subject. :banghead: I have two beardies that I got from a pet store (I know, bad choice). However, I am dying to figure out what "kind" of dragons they are. Can anyone help? Thanks, Allie

Hey, I have a bearide who is about 6 months old and is 287 grams! She sleeps in a cave, but EVERY night before she goes to bed, she digs for about an hour. Her temps are fine, she's not dehydrated. I have tried to put tissue paper/toilet paper in the cave and she will climb on top and dig down...

Hey :) So my issue is with my 6 month beardie. She is more than 60 grams... She's a big one. I feed her live crickets twice a day and i have a bowl of greens and dried meal worms & Grasshoppers in her 40 gallon cage. She eats ALL of the dried insects. I am worried that she eats too much. She'll...

Hey :) So I have two bearded dragons that I've had since November. Athena is 7 months (she's only 39 grams because she was just diagnosed with Protozoa.) and the other, Calypso, is 6 months and is HUGE. I bought two kits at the pet stores one is a 40 gallon and one is a 20 gallon. The 40 gallon...

Hey :) I have two bearded dragons. Athena is about 7 months old, but she's been sick (just diagnosed as protozoa.) so she's only 39 grams :(. My other baby is Calypso, shes 6 months WELL over 60 grams.. I bought the Zoo Med starter tanks off their website (Athena is in a 20 gallon and Cali is in...

Howdy. I gave my bearded dragon some prickly pear fruit yesterday. I was going to mush it up with my fingers, but as soon as I put it in her cage she went CRAZY. she ate two bites of the fruit that wasn't cut up enough for her and now she has a lump in her tummy area that is the shape of the...

Hello, My name is Allie and I am new to this site :) I have two female beardies Athena (the oldest one around 6 months, and the one I am having issues with) and Calypso (she's about 4 months old, a fancy, and she LOVES to eat). I bought Athena first at a petstore. She was so sassy and we...
