    Yellow fungus treatment options

    Hello all, it’s been a while. We are working with a vet right now but I’m wanting to get a second opinion and see what other people think. I’ve heard a lot of pessimism regarding the outcome of a beardie with yellow fungus. A big consensus is that it’s a death sentence. Gary is currently on...

    Sudden behavior change

    Hi everyone it’s been a while. I’m having an issue with Gary this morning. He is suddenly absolutely terrified of everyone. He’s usually really friendly and will just run around the house happy as can be. But this morning he is trying to hide from everyone and if you get too close he puffs up...

    Concerning poop...

    Really worried about Roger's poop today. The only reason I'm not putting this in ER is because he's acting normal.... It's very milky which is what I'm so concerned about. Can someone provide any insight on why this would happen? Thank you

    Filling Himself Up With Air?

    Hi everyone! Roger is doing really well, loves his greens and is growing like a champ! However, he does this when I put him in the bath: The second he touches the water, he will fill himself up with air like a balloon! Is he doing this because he's afraid of drowning? I make sure not to fill...

    Telepathic Domination?

    Hi all! Roger has been great, eating sooo well, pooping 2-3 times a day sometimes :lol: And Gary is also adjusting very well, he almost doesn't even seem to notice Roger lives there. Either that or Gary is just too lazy to even react to anything :lol: On the other hand, Roger is definitely...

    Appox. Age? What is your opinion?

    I know size and age don't directly relate when it comes to beardies, but I was hoping somebody might have a guess at how old Roger is due to him being from Petco, therefore we have absolutely no idea. I will say, they had him in the back in a bigger tank, seems like he was with newer beardies...

    Having 2 boys

    Hey all! So we took Gary to Petco for Reptile Rally because people like to check him out. But then we saw a beautiful little leatherback baby for sale and couldn't say no. So now we have Roger! I'm about 80% sure Roger is a boy. And of course Gary is also a boy. My question is, what should we...

    Coloring/Pattern; My Little Chubber!

    Wanted to share this photo of my Gary! The left is Jan 2016 and the right is June 2016 As you can see his color has subdued a bit, these are both taken after warm baths, that's when his color is most vibrant. Is there a name for the pattern on his back? I'm glad he hasn't lost it, it's so...

    Wants to Sleep All the Time

    Hey everybody! So, I'm not really worried about this, more just curious I suppose, because Gary isn't acting like he doesn't feel well and he's eating great as always. But he always wants to sleep. Sometimes I'll turn his light on to wake him up, he'll bask just enough to warm up, and then he...

    Cuddle Monster!

    My little boy Gary is a crazy cuddler! If he's sleepy and out of his tank, he will go straight to me, climb up my chest and go to my neck, and nuzzle me! I've caught it on video so many times, I wish I could upload it here. And if he's in a situation where someone he doesn't recognize gets...

    Fishy smelling poop

    Gary's poop smells fishy sometimes. It's always been that way. He was recently tested for parasites and the vet didn't find anything. He had full blood work done and the only thing the vet saw was that the protein levels were a little high but we've just let up on the roaches a little to fix...

    Femoral pores

    Hi guys! I've just noticed that Gary now has femoral pores! They're becoming quite noticable! So, what exactly does this mean? That he's reached sexual maturity? That he's an adult now? Is he older than we thought he was? We only thought he was about 9 months old. Would this be possible...

    4 feet long??

    I'm speaking with a person that apparently has a bearded dragon that she says is 4 feet long. That isn't possible, is it? I kept telling her she might be having it confused with an iguana but she's adamant it's a beardie.

    They grow up so fast!

    Here's Gary last year when we got him... he was so tiny! He had just learned the joys of cuddling :love5: And now he's all grown up yet he's still not even done growing! :cry: Seriously love him to pieces, getting him was one of the best decisions of my life. It has taught me so much...

    Craigslist Postings

    Hi all, sad story :( I just recently came across a local posting on craigslist for someone selling their juvenile bearded dragon for $40. They said they got him all the way back in November of last year from Petco. I had gotten Gary from Petco September 30th so that tells me they must be close...

    Mosquito Eaters

    I posted this in feeders first but realized it more belongs in feeding really. :P Hi all! So of course I know that wild insects should never be fed to beardies. But here in California during this time we have a tonnnnn of skeeter eaters/mosquito eaters out right now. One got in his tank and he...
