    Possible tail rot - big time stress

    Thank you. I feel foolish about leaving her unattended. In a previous life that never would have happened - I have a brand new baby that called me away. She sometimes flips carpet up and goes underneath. She seems to be losing weight and iant interested in her food. this in line with being gravid?

    Possible tail rot - big time stress

    Hey guys! I really need your help. I thought my beardie was about to shed her tail but then noticed that it wasn't going all the way up her tail today. It's just the end half of her tail. It's pretty dark. She also has some stress indicators - dark spots on some of her back and black under her...

    Can't find the right screen

    Thank you. My inclination is towards the top one, though I had originally hoped to have one that opened lengthwise. Have you had any experience with the one that opens like this? I really hope I don't have to move my lighting everytime I open it.

    Can't find the right screen

    Smaug is ready to move up into a 40 gallon breeder tank which I purchased on sale during the Petco $1/gallon sale. I can't find an appropriate screen for it anywhere. I want to make sure to get one that has a hinge on it in the middle since she will be living in a classroom during the school...

    Beardie Gurgling and in Distress

    Oh! She struggled quite a bit! She clamped her mouth over and over. It took two of us to get the total of a tablespoon of food into her. I did the mouth and holding and my husband did the syringe. It's been 3 or 4 hours and we had dinner a bath before the food. A few minutes ago we got...

    Here's what we dose today. She wouldn't eat on her own so we did 2 tsp baby food squash, 1/4 tsp oil, 1/4 tsp honey, 1/4 tsp calcium/D3 powder, 1/4 tsp water. It took a while but she took it in by syringe over about 15 minutes. Anything else we need to add? How often should we do this?

    Beardie Gurgling and in Distress

    There seem to be many things that I need to juggle and I'm stressing bc she doesn't show any improvement overall. I need a clear answer on her diet for time being. Does she only need the baby food with oil and honey? Or does she still need the crickets and salad? How much of what? I only...

    So we just did a 20 minute bath. I didn't say this before but am starting to think it's important. We are doing baths in a 9x13 baking dish. I thought it who would be a good idea to dedicate a container for the purpose of her baths. Today, she tried to pull around in the water almost like she...

    We finally got some poo yesterday evening! Never thought i'D be so glad about such a thing. It was the size of an acorn and looked hard and grainy (am I seeing walnut shell?). I'm still concerned about more hard lumps in her tummy. So, with this information, do we consider the impaction...

    Beardie Gurgling and in Distress

    I'm feeling like we might need to up her # of baths in a day. I know once we're on maintenence she'll need baths 2-4 times a week (please confirm?) But I'm wondering if we shouldn't do as many a day to get things moving. She's straining again as we speak. Poor lady turns white except her...

    Well, while i think sheet likes the squash mixture, she clamps her mouth shut after every taste. We managed a 20 minute bath and about 30 minutes out in the sunshine. She tried to potty outside but nothing. She's tried again inside. We're getting nothing but white speckled water.

    Beardie Gurgling and in Distress

    This morning she had some greens (a couple inches in total), a tiny bit of baby food squash, and 1 small cricket. Then she closed her eyes again. After a little while found her straining, puffed up like a balloon, and black. She only got out a little liquid. Please give me my next steps...

    Beardie Gurgling and in Distress

    Okay, and the Pedialyte and the tummy rubbing for bath time. Are those good? Should I always try to keep her from drinking bath water bc of what happened last time? (I'm feeling like that was mostly head dipping) I just need confirmation that I'm doing things right. She likes the squash...

    Okay. Going to try that. Am I adding that quarter teaspoon of vegetable oil or honey to the entire jar of baby food or to a spoonful?
