Hi there, this little guy is about 6 months old, rescued from an Ace Hardware where he was being fed a few worms every three days, incorrect basking temp, minimal uvb, and very dry enclosure. I brought him home and he weighs 23 grams. His enclosure has paper towel substrate, and I have a...

It is entirely my fault that this happened but just know I do not keep my rescue dragons where they can be around each other, most can't even see each other. But I was cleaning today and I usually let one run around in my bedroom and another in the living room while I'm cleaning cages, just to...

Just noticed this today on a year old dragon. Not sure how he could have injured it, but it looks kinked. That or a retained shed that is cutting off the blood flow? He did brumate for a pretty long time (4 months) and only coming out of it a little when I would soak him about twice a month.

A friend randomly contacted me yesterday saying she had a bearded dragon and knew I rescued them, and she was worried about hers. I went to her house and see a small guy laying on the bottom of the cage, every muscle in his body spasming and twitching. She said that she had just noticed it. I...

Tiny Tim is one of two babies I rescued that were severely dehydrated, malnourished, and starved. He bounced back fairly quick and has been doing good ever since, although he was always kind of slow, like he was not very intelligent. He is probably about 8 months old now. A month ago I...

I got Lola in April, she was probably just a couple months old, and starved badly, this pic is the day I got her: So she is approx. 9-10 months old now. She is very stunted, she is smaller than a couple 3-4 month old rescues. She would occasionally go off food and try to starve herself to...

Wondering if I can coat the inside and outside of my dragons tank with this: http://duplicolor.com/product/adhesion-promoter I tested this out on a spare piece of glass and it made it look a little frosted, but it took away the reflection, which is what I need. My dragon is going insane in...

First question: I rescued a starved baby in April who I believe is approx 7-8 months old now. She is smaller and weighs less than a 3 month old baby I have. She is only 97g. She eats, but will occasionally go off food. She tried to starve herself to death about 3 months ago, I had to...

I recently adopted a dragon that had been discovered outside in mid April, thought to be dead, and thrown away in a garbage can. He was rescued and taken to the vet, who amputed his tail. The lady that saved him contacted me and I picked him up around the end of may. She said the stitches...

This might get a little PG13, be forewarned. I'm just very curious if anyone else has experienced this type of behavior, and what it might mean. My first rescue was picked up as a baby in January. So he is around 7-8 months old now. I take him everywhere with me, he loves it. He sleeps in...

I rescue dragons and I just drove across 3 states to pick up a dragon that had been left for dead in a hedge and thrown in a garbage can. Picked him up and was stunned by how beautiful he was! Was just wondering if there is a name for his coloring, it is unlike any of my other rescues. The...

About a month and a half ago I rescued this baby with another baby and a juvenile, all 3 being housed in a 20 gallon on wood chips with no proper uvb and temps. Got them home and immediately took the juvenile out, kept the babies together in a 40 gallon, because one had parasites so I treated...

I picked up 3 rescues that were all in a 20 gallon together about a months ago. Separated the biggest dragon right away but left the 2 babies together while I got a 55 gallon split and ready. They were all eating well and gaining weight fast. Tried to move them to the split 55 about a week...

About a month ago I rescued 3 dragons, 2 babies and a juvenille, all being enclosed in a 20 gallon tank with no uvb. The smallest had bloody feces, so I treated all 3 for coccidia, and I left them together in a 40 gallon tank while being treated to minimize risk of spreading. Now I have them...

This is a rescue dragon, I don't have time for details ATM, doing everything I can to save him. Asking for advice from anyone who has experience with mbd and swollen eyes due to vitamin a. (Hypo...?) Just came from vet who says it doesn't look good but he is sending pics to his friend who is...

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2015/01/05/reptile-shop-owner-hit-employees-with-bearded-dragons/21297911/ I don't know if anyone has done business with this guy, but I hope he gets what he deserves. What a disgusting, cruel person, he definitely shouldn't be allowed to own an...

I drove 11 hours last night to pick this guy up. He is 6 years old, emaciated, and has what appears to be a crushed right lung. The owner said when they got him he was injured and nearly died, but they didn't tell me what happened and how old he was. He was completely covered in feces. I...

My first post was concerning a rescue in the ER section, and I was more worried for her health than about introducing myself. I live in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota, and I take in sick or unwanted reptiles. I currently have a juvenile bearded dragon, an old and very shy tiger...

For those of you who's feed bill is quite expensive, I just started buying a bountiful basket, and happy to note that 3/4 of what's in it is reptile friendly. My rescue critters include a dragon, turtles, salamander... And all are enjoying the produce. Just thought I'd share.

Anyone who followed my er thread knows that I took in a baby that was impacted two weeks ago, finally getting him to pass a large blockage today, followed by another smaller one hours later (gritty with sand ) He is absolutely exhausted. He has eaten a little every day, morning and night. But...
