I am so disappointed that there aren't more of these! So funny :lol:

Hi, AHBD and kingofnobbys. Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately, my area is VERY cold (we were at 26ºF/-3ºC this week) so I can't give my beardie outdoor time, and I only have one window and it's not anywhere near his viv. (My home is very, very narrow, townhome-style - downstairs only has...

Admins: Please move if this isn't the right place for this. I wasn't sure if it belonged here or Behavior or somewhere else? So obviously I know the basic rules of better not to keep two beardies together, if they do they should both be female, etc. etc... what I'm having trouble finding is...

<<< take a look and see if it has gold caps ... if it does , it may be you have one the dodgey production run tubes . I don't remember if the cap itself was gold or not (since I mailed it back already), but I remember the little prongs on either end of the tube that lock it into the fixture were...

Update: he woke up yesterday! He still didn't want to eat anything and didn't want to bask, but he was upright and more alert for a few hours and drank a bunch of water (he likes drinking from an eyedropper) before wanting back into his viv around 9pm. He scrambled on top the top of his hide and...

@EllenD -- That's reassuring to hear! Thank you for all of your input. @kingofnobbys -- The weather has been around a high of 65ºF/18ºC and a low of 45ºF/7ºC the last few weeks, although in August it was up around 105ºF/40ºC. No hard lumps in his tummy (I check constantly because I worry about...

Hi, EllenD. Thanks for replying. He hasn't been asleep for 2 months, just very, very low energy. I mean, yes, he has slept much of that time, but sometimes he's definitely awake - just not mobile. It seemed like it was the wrong time of year for him to be brumating (late summer?). He wakes up...

Hello. I'm in my semi-regular "panic over the state of my lizard" mode. My 2 1/2 year old beardie's weight and color have remained stable, but he has been listless for about two months now (since late July/early August). Because of the time of the year, I don't think it's brumation, and the...

Oh, good! I always worry that he's undereating... he's so lazy, I worry that he's hungry and lacking in energy because of it, and that contributes to his laziness. I'm so glad it sounds pretty normal, quantity-wise. Whew! He had about 11 roaches yesterday but only ate one bite of his salad...

Whoops, sorry for the slow replies - I didn't have internet at the new place until this week, and work has been insane! @SLDragon - I give him wax worms as a treat from time to time, but he doesn't care for crickets (too lazy to chase them) and phoenix worms and the like are just too expensive...

Just a quick update to say that I haven't found the scale or ordered the liquid calcium yet, as I'm currently living out of boxes and don't have my mail sorted yet (judging by the lack of post that's arrived in my name so far), but Wade finally had a bowel movement and passed a urate yesterday...

@ AHBD Okay, I've removed his hide for now (although he wouldn't eat today) and will commence with an extra bath and apple sauce with honey in the next day or two - I'm moving in about 12 hours so all that stuff is packed up in a box somewhere at the moment. :( @ Tracie He is definitely very...

Hi, Tracie. I'm in the US - I will look for the Zilla brand when I next go to the pet shop. I used to go every 2-3 weeks to replenish Wade's roaches, as it takes almost an hour to get there, but since he's been hardly eating any and my adult dubias have been consistently hatching nymphs for a...

Hello! Perfectly fine! It happens all the time! And no, if anything, I always worry that he's small for his age with his finicky appetite...! If his length and weight seem all right despite the lack of eating, I'll not worry about them too much, then (if possible)! Nope, he absolutely will...

Hello! Thank you both for your replies! Yes, AHBD is right, the dragon is Wade and he's 11 months. :) He's about 375g as of tonight, about 20cm snout to vent. A picture of him from just now: He didn't have hardly any apple sauce, really - he gave it a lick but didn't otherwise eat it, so I...
