Hi all. My female bearded dragon has gone through 2 episodes of dehydration. Wrinkled skin, sullen eyes and lethargy. Both times we went to the vet who administered fluid injections which got her healthier but I don't want this to keep happening so how do you keep your dragon hydrated? We've...

I've built this large 6ft x 3ft enclosure for an Australian Water Dragon with a large 3ft pond in it. The pond is pretty deep but that is perfect for an Aussie Water Dragon. Its also a planted enclosure with soil, ferns and draceana. I don't want to house the AWD in the enclosure until it is...

I finished building a custom wooden enclosure two weeks ago and my dragon is settling in nicely. I decided on a new tank partially because I could install 2 ceramic light fixtures which would allow a CHE and a basking bulb. The previous tank only had 1 fixture which meant I couldn't have a...

I'm almost through completing my scratch-built wooden tank for my adult bearded dragon. I'm trying lots of new things with this setup and I'm wondering about adding live-edible plants. I originally held her in sand substrate but I moved to paper towel after it got a bit dusty inside. The paper...

I'm a good way through constructing a new custom wood enclosure for my bearded dragon, but I'm running into a snag with lighting. My plan is to have 3 ceramic fixtures - One basking light, one UVB compact and one Ceramic Heater - and a single UVB tube fixture. The Basking light, UVB compact and...

I posted about this a while back but I thought I would do a new post instead of bumping an old one. My dragon Crunch is about 14 years old, and over the last few years she's developed an issue with her eyes. Some sort of weird goop was appearing in her eyes. It appeared to come from her...

I recently visited Hartley's Crocodile Adventures in Cairns on a holiday and they had an awesome outdoor enclosure with beardies and frilled dragons. For beardies they had two small males and one large female. The female was minding her own business basking but the two males were having a...

Hello all! My bearded dragon Crunch has been having a lot of eye issues recently. She keeps them closed often and they always contain a strange transparent goop. The vet is at a loss. I found an old thread saying that eye problems are usually caused by UVB overexposure so I wanted to know what...

I opened up some new crickets a few weeks back to give to Musket and Crunch, no big deal. How I missed it is a mystery to me, however when I went to tip the crickets into their feeding room a large red-back spider fell out as well. I was shocked for a few seconds, before its jet-black fat...

Hey beardie lovers! I have had two dragons, a male and female for about 5 years. They used to belong to a breeder and were a breeding pair for a while. They have lived their whole lives together in the one tank which I know is unconventional but it has worked alright thus far. I mention this...

My male beardie Musket is always eating up, he's really good like that, always happy to eat his veges and always goes for the crickets. Recently however, hes had trouble sticking out his tongue. He sort of sticks it out to one side rather than out in front. He also tends to get a lot of food...

Hey fellow Dragon carers! I have 2 bearded dragons, approximately 40cm long and I think they need a bigger tank. I had a 90 x 60 x 60 tank before and they seemed to really love that, but then it smashed when we were moving. I had a spare tank that I got free from the breeders who sold me the...

Hi! This is my first post on this forum and I can't wait to get involved with the community. On a much more urgent matter, my bearded dragon has been back from the vet for 2 days after getting a fluid injection. She lost so much weight and strength because I had a dogey UV light. I've gotten a...
