    ID the morph??

    Can anyone help me with a morph ID? We just got this little guy last night, kind of spur of the moment. My fiance came into my life when my beardie was already full grown and has wanted to raise her own. So this is Rocco. I think he may be a hypo?? His nails are less than black-- a brown...

    DIY enclosures?

    My fiance and I went to the local fish store today to get hermits for our marine tank... figured it'd be about $10 or $12, but the bill came to $155. :shock: !!!! Darn expensive hermits!! We ended up coming home with a Chinese Water Dragon, a subadult. We've always admired them and have...

    My first baby beardie

    After years of caring for adult beardies that people ditched with me, I finally have gotten down to one adult and had a spare viv open, so my lady bought me a gorgeous red Italian leatherback. I've named him Zeke. He is super cute and is getting quite friendly! Day I brought him home: He is...

    MVB for young dragons

    Are MVB suitable for young dragons that are still small enough to be living in a 20 gallon? Or is that too much heat? We are going to be getting our very first baby dragon after having adult rescues for years, and you'd think I'd be less nervous, but no-- second guessing everything! Right now...

    Beardie breeders in the mid-Atlantic

    My fiance and I have been keeping, rescuing, and rehoming bearded dragons for many years now. We've decided we'd like to buy a baby and raise it ourselves. This will be a novel thing for us-- we've mostly dealt with adults in the past. At our local shows we became entranced with the Italian...

    Abcess-- antibiotics prescribed

    We had our vet appointment with Tank today. The vet was not one I've had before (they lost the appointment with our usual herp vet) and was very young. I've seen her there a few times but never worked with her. She seemed to have her basics down. She said the lump feels hard and could well be...

    Question about a rescue beardie

    We have had Tank for just under 18 months. When we got Tank from Craigslist as a rescue, the owner told us he was only 9 months old. He was being kept on blue calcium sand and had turned completely blue in color. They were feeding him kale without supplementation and were not using UV light. He...

    Bearded Dragon size concern

    My GF and I have a bearded dragon that was a Craigs list purchase/rescue from a person who had two beardies in the same cage together who bred "accidentally." We have had Tank since late last summer, and were told he was about a year old at that time which would indicate that he is currently...

    Cresties ready to go!

    Our 18 month old crested gecko pair seems ready to go. The female has begun going into an egg laying pattern and we have now provided nesting material. Hopefully they will reward us soon with some fertile eggs, which will be the first we've ever produced! It will be neat to see what the babies...

    Considering a CWD

    I am considering adding a Chinese Water Dragon to our collection. This would be a combo birthday/Christmas present from my GF, so not until mid-late Fall would I have the cage and system. I am currently looking at the Animal Plastics A20 arboreal cage. It is 48" x 24" x 36" high. I know a fully...

    Heating & Lighting my beardie tank

    I think I'd like to use a mercury vapor bulb as "plug space" is becoming a premium. I am working on setting up the tank now. I am hoping to purchase a beardie this spring or early next summer. Trying to work out all the kinks prior to bringing the little guy home. Would this one be okay...

    Planning a viv... I've got time (because atm I have no cash!

    I had intended on getting a Bearded Dragon at MARS after researching them for YEARS (literally) but am now holding back a little due to some unexpected financial issues cropping up. I'm probably going to get a juvie in the spring or summer of 2009. I've got most (maybe all) of the equipment...
