Hi, My five year old male rescue dragon Finster is having some trouble. I hope you can help. I've noticed over the last month that the end of his tail is droopy when he runs. Before, he would hold the entire tail up as he ran, so the tip would sort of point at the sky. I didn't think much...

Hi Everyone, I don't post often, but often lurk. Hoping someone can help me out with a question for Finster. See here about him: viewtopic.php?f=44&t=254235 I have a T5 Reptisun 10.0 in a 22" fixture w/ reflector. It's about 14" off the basking spot, maybe 13" off Finster's back. Enclosure...

This is Finster. When George passed away in November, I knew it was just a matter of time before I found a rescue that needed me, because I know I needed a rescue. Anyone that's lost a beardie knows what its like to wake up in the morning, walk to the enclosure, and realize your buddy is...

Hi, George is my 5 and a half year old female. She typically goes into a light brumation (awake but sluggish most days) this time of year and is fully awake and hungry by late January or early February. I keep detailed records of her behavior and for the fifth year running, she's acting...

Hi, I finally took George to the vet for a wellness check. The Vet I took him to has a very distinguished background (VERY VERY) and I liked her a lot. But she recommended something I've never heard before and I'd like some opinions, please. George has a t5 reptisum uvb tube. He's two years...

Hi Everyone, George (18 months old or so, 18.5 inches long, 522 grams) has been brumating for almost 4 months! Anyone have a similar experience? He's bathed weekly and has consistently lost about a gram of weight per week. He woke up on his own about a week ago, ate some reptiworms and a bit...

Hi, George is about 18 months old. He's 18 inches long and weighs in at about 525 grams. He's been brumating for about a month now and seems to be losing about a gram a week. Is this too much? I take him out weekly for a soak. Yesterday, I weighed him both before and after his bath. He...

Hi, I'm currently building a 4x2x2 for George. I've been trying to settle on a UVB tube, and I've seen so many different opinions on this board and elsewhere that my head is spinning. I want to go with a 3 foot Reptisun 10.0 HO T5 in a zoomed hood w/reflector. I've seen the UVB tests at the...

Hi Everyone, Looking for advice....I'm going out of town for a day and a half. Will my beardie be OK without food? He's nine months old, currently 16" long. He eats 35 reptiworms in the morning, greens/veg, then as many crix as he can eat in 10 minutes 2 hours before lights out. He...

Hi, I'm a first time beardie owner. We bought George at 8 weeks old at a reptile show. He's now six months old. He's 16" long. I don't have a scale to weigh him, but until recently, I'd say he was nicely plump. The base of his tail is fat. When we first got him, he ate like a champ...
