    Would a vivarium be able to support a small fish tank?

    Standard 4 by 2 Viv and a 25 litre tank. The Viv feels as sturdy as some of the tank stands I've seen but don't want to crush Bug! Thanks.

    Betadine baths.

    Just a quick question (for a change)! After a Betadine bath do you rinse it off or just dry your dragon? Thanks!

    Sudden abscess.

    Hey, I've recently posted in health as I've noticed discoloration on my beardeds skin. Well I've just come home and the biggest patch of discoloration is noticeably swollen. My camera won't get a good picture of it. I'm going to phone the vet tomorrow but what if the reptile specialist isn't in...

    Possible yellow fungus? :0 edit;more discolouration of skin.

    Hello, I'm hoping someone can help. I noticed a small patch of grey on my lovely Bugs shoulder over a month ago and presumed he was going to start a shed. Since then another patch has appeared on his other shoulder and no sign of shed. He has shed his Head and feet in the mean time. When he's...

    Longshot but does anyone know of beardie boarding in London?

    I can transport his viv to my parents but I'd rather avoid the hassel and leave him with someone with experience. Thanks :)

    Would this be ok for silkies?

    Hey, I have managed to find silkworms in stock for the first time in the uk and am looking to raising them to a bigger size and hopefully breeding them. I have got tuppleware boxes and mesh. I was thinking of turning the boxes upside down, and cutting the bottom of the boxes for easy mess...

    Extra long tail anyone.

    Been looking at Bug and I've decided his tail is abnormally long (but gorgeous). Anyone else have a beardie like this? :)

    Instant sleep.

    Just out of curiosity is it normal for beardies/reptiles/amphibians to fall asleep as soon as it gets dark. As soon as bugs lights go off and I mean within seconds he goes to his sleeping spot and he is sparko within seconds. If he gets a bit sleepy when he is out, if I cover his face he will...

    Aprox age for Lovebug?

    I didnt think to ask how old he was when I got him, but he was 11inches and 60 grams. That was August 11th. He is now about 330 grams and 19 inches. Ive looked at a few charts but they have allot of leeway, I was hoping with his earlier size someone could give me an estimate within a few months...

    Lovebugs big sulk.

    I've recently left my job and I'm not planning to get one until new year, so for the last 3 weeks me and Bug have had lots of time together (and I mean lots, I barely make it to the shops!). For my partners birthday we went to brussels for the night and Lovebug was left on his own. . . Had...

    Would this work?

    Hey, I have a wooden viv its 4 by 2 but it is short of 2 foot high. (About 50cm). I didn't think this would a problem but taking into account the size of the light fitting and the length of the bulb itself it means there is only a foot between the bulb the floor. I would like to be able to give...

    Lovebug just ate a feather. . . Should I be worried?

    I just had him out on the floor and for some reason there was a feather there, from my duvet I presume. Anyway he made a beeline for it and ate it! It was only about 1/2cm and lovebugs 16inches (just realised how fast he is growing ! ) Impaction risk? :s Thanks.

    Had my darling for almost 3 months now. . .

    Have a few questions and just observations. First im pretty sure he has parasites, his behaviour hasn't changed and he is still eating me out of house and home but his poo smells now and has been reddish twice now unrelated to food. Im sending a 3 day pooled fecal sample to a lab. (on day 2) Is...

    beardies skin very saggy

    Hi, I'm not sure if this should be in ER. I noticed my beardies skin was a bit saggy yesterday and its got much worse today, he looks very dehydrated. I bathed him yesterday and today, and bath him every other day anyway as he loves them. Im not sure how old he is but he is 95 grams. He doesn't...

    Is it normal for a beardie to eat a box of locusts a day??

    And he's out doing himself today, had a box for his first feed! I've had him a couple of weeks, he was 60g he's 95 now. I'm mildly worried I'm going to end up with an obese dragon but secretly proud of him. Lucy.

    Please help a new owner :)

    Hello, I bought my lovely beardie Lovebug just over a week ago.

His viv is the vivexotic viva plus terrestrial large deep, its W115cm D61 H50. I...

    I've the most lovable beardie ever and a few questions!

    First of all thanks, this forum was invaluable when doing my research for Lovebug! (Name started as a joke and stuck. . .) I've had Lovebug home for 5 days now and I've seen conflicting information as to when I should start handling him, with people recommending anything between 24 hours and 2...
