    Vomit (?) and weight loss

    Hey everyone, never thought I’d be in here for my own girl. I had Steve, my rescue beardie, a few years back if anyone remembers him. My girl, Sapphire, had always been doing poorly but she had been to several (4 I think) exotic vets and they always said she was doing great and she’s had fecals...

    Age-related eyesight loss?

    Hey everyone! Been a long time since I’ve visited (last time was for my rescue beardie Steve I believe) and my beardie is getting older. I was wondering if anyone knew when a beardies eyesight might start to go? I was just feeding my girl Sapphire and she is so horrible at catching the dubias...

    How many dubais per day for an adult?

    I'm going to switch my beardie over to dubias but I've got no clue on the amount to order. Sapphire is an adult (around 9 years) so how many dubias (medium or small) should she get per week? I've gotten no good answer from googling it so i figured I would just ask.

    Mystery issue???

    So I don't really expect much in the way of information, but I figured I'd ask anyway. Sapphire has been having issues, including constipation, extremely liquidy poo (doesn't even up even having a shape it's a puddle), and she has no fat pads. The fat pads I figured were from dehydration, but...

    Why am i like this

    So, as some of you know I rescued and rehabbed a bearded dragon, Steve, last summer. Well now I might be rescuing 2 more. My best friend texted me saying our other friend has a friend (sounds like those long drawn out stories like the friend of a cousin of his mom etc tbh) has 2 dragons she's...

    Will a dragon eat dirt?

    Strange question, I know, but I want to know if anyone has ever had an issue with their dragons eating dirt. Not like just getting some going after crickets, but actively eating it. I want to know because I want to put dirt as the substrate for my girl, Sapphire, but she's got a habit of eating...

    She won't stop eating flax seed

    So, I got my beardie some flax seed for a dig box since it's safe for them to eat in case they tasted it and ate a bit and so she could dig. However... She's eating it. Like not just a few seeds where it seems like she just ate a couple while licking things; when I bathed her, her poo was...

    What to use to wash beardie blanket?

    Hi guys, back again. Just had a quick question- can I put the fleece I'm going to use as a blanket for my beardie in the washing machine with normal detergent, or is there some other way I should wash it? I'm assuming it's fine considering she can be on my clothes without an issue otherwise but...

    Mouth rot or no? Pictures

    Okay, so first off I was pretty sure she didn't have it but now I'm not sure and I'm here for a clear answer. Sapphire has had crust on her lips, which I did post about and then decided it wasn't mouth rot, but I finally was able to get my brother to help me with getting her mouth open and...

    Zilla digital power center timer help?

    So I got the zilla power center timer so I didn't need to deal with turning lights on and off every day, but it's not working. I read the instructions, watched a video, and it looks like I've set it up perfectly. It doesn't turn on though. Beginning to think I got a defective one. It's only the...

    Weird mouth scales?

    So for a little bit Sapphire has had these grayish scales on her lip, which was concerning but never seemed to hurt her or even bother her so I wasn't too worried. They still haven't done much, and it's only one side of her mouth, but it's been like this long enough I figured better safe than...

    Steve's Story and New Home

    So, I think a lot of you know Steve, my rescue from my school. I'm glad to say after months of caring for him he's gotten so much better and as of today he went to his new home at Happy Herps Reptile Rescue! Not going to lie, I cried when I gave him up. I'll miss that little guy. So, I thought...

    Calcium questions

    Just wanted to stop by and find clear answers on calcium supplements. I've read a lot of conflicting info. Sapphire has a Reptisun tube light, gets a salad every day and about 30 crickets a week. Should I use calcium with D3, or without? Also should I dust the salad and crickets or just one...

    Damaged femoral pore? Picture

    So, Steve is still with me (we are filling out a surrender form on Tuesday, yay) and when I bathed him I noticed that one of his femoral pores looked like it was damaged, like there was a hole. I'm sure if that ever happens normally and I just don't know about it but I wanted to be sure. Not...

    How to use F10 SC disinfectant?

    So I picked up F10 SC Veterinary Disinfectant so I could do a full clean of my dragons tank, but this stuff sounds terrifying? "If on skin, take off contaminated clothing. Rise skin immediately with water for 15-20 minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for advice." How do I use...

    How would I find a new home for a dragon? *Home Found!!

    Firstly, I am not currently looking for a new home for him, but the dragon I would be looking for one for is Steve (from my ER thread). He is not mine, but the schools as I was just caring for him over summer break but school is getting very close again and I do not want to give him back as he...

    Black worms in poop? **picture

    So, one of my dragons (Steve) went to the bathroom today and it wasn't solid in the least and seemed to have black worms or something else in it. I have no clue what it is, so I figured I would ask. Was hoping I would need to post yet another thread! Thank you for any info on what it is!

    Redo deworming?

    Both of the dragons I have recently got deworming meds and are finished with their 3 days on meds and have been for a while, but I'm pretty sure both still have worms. Steves poop is still watery, which is why I think he does still, and Sapphires poop looks normal now except I see very small...

    UVB inside or outside tank?

    Hi, I just wanted to be sure I had my my UVB right. I have a Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 UVB Fluorescent T5 HO Bulb for both my dragons (in separate tanks) outside the tank on the screen with a reflector, about a foot from Steves basking spot and about 6-8 from Sappires basking spot. Should they be...

    Orange bits and worms in poop? **picture**

    I gave Sapphire a bath today because she hadn't gone to the bathroom in a couple days, and when she finally did there were oranges pieces of poop and what looked like worms? Kind of like tapeworms, they look like whitish kind of flat rice grains. Looks similar to when my cats had tapeworms, so...
