    Female infertile egg laying

    So awhile ago Spike laid a clutch of about 14 infertile eggs - before we believed she was a male because of what her previous owner had told us, and noting that she is 5 years old we believed she would have laid already. Because of this, she laid her eggs in her terrarium instead of a proper...

    Timmy's Turds

    Timmy has shat 3 times today, within the past 4 hours, maybe 5. What could this be? I just moved him from my other place last night, so maybe it's stress? He is now living next to my other dragon, who although is female and much larger, is blocked from his view by a wooden board between their...

    Vomiting?!

    I just had Dr. Scales in the tub and I stepped out for a moment. When I came back, she was drinking tons of water. It was the time for me to take her out of her bath and I put her back in her terrarium. She made an odd squeaking noise, but I didn't think anything of it. Then she ran on top...

    Dr. Scales hasn't been doing a whole lot lately... she sits under her plastic plant in the corner all day and night.

    What watt bulb should I use?

    So I have a juvie beardie, and he's a little older than a year. I'm not sure if that's important to know, maybe hotter bulbs are a bad idea? Anyway, Timmy lives in a 40 gallon terrarium. I've been using a 75 watt bulb for awhile, but I figure that moving on to a higher watt bulb would be...

    Possibly gravid beardie?

    I've had my girl in her lay box for about three hours today, and she was freaking out, like scratching at the walls of her terrarium (wall surfing?) and that's why I put her in there. She's been getting chubby, and she doesn't like to eat as much. Her beard sometimes darkens and she just sits...

    New Beardie!

    I got a new baby dragon, and i was wondering if there was a way to tell a dragon's gender at such a young age? Also, is there anything specific I should do with him? I've already had a baby, but maybe I could do something better/different. I'm calling it a him and his name is Timmy ^-^

I haven't (until recently) been using a UVB bulb - I know, that's bad, right??? - and I want to know if I need a fourth lamp to use all four of these lights. Are there bulbs that generate uvb and uva, or is uva even...

    Black/other darker colored dragons and roommates

    So I've been thinking of getting another dragon. The one I've been looking at is mostly black/grayish and I would like to know how to tell if he's sick or something, as I've read that most beardies will darken their beards for territorial reasons, courting, or just because they're sick. How...
