Hey guys - I know, it's been a long time! I finally managed to get Carl a bigger enclosure - 180 gallon tank! Excuse the dirty window...my cats like to soak up the sun beside the lights LOL - oh my (note - they have zero interest in Carl, but I do plan on adding screen doors on the top). My...

Hey guys - I'm starting to worry about Charlie. I expected him to be off for a while. Well, he's dark almost all the time now. He won't eat. He feels lighter (my scale is broken so I can't weigh him). Worse part, I've already had 2 major surgeries on my dog and one of my cats in the last 3...

Hey folks - so I've been trying to get Carl my rescue to eat healthier...and by extension get Charlie (my original beardie) to eat something other than bok choi. Neither one of them has a single appearance of interest in any of it. What I've started doing is making a mix of veggies, fruits and...

Apparently, Carl has been fed collard greens and pellets. The person who fostered him until today said he LOVES crickets, I've also discovered he loves butter worms. I suspect he's going to love any moving insect. He's already gained weight since coming into care and I hope to expand on that...

So, in our new house Charlie is downstairs. We have a 3 level split, so to go downstairs is 7 steps, you go upstairs to the bedrooms is 7 steps. Anyway, the main floor is where the main living area is. The downstairs and downstairs steps have industrial carpeting. I came out to the kitchen to...

Hi Everyone, I'm going to be taking in a foster for our local SPCA. He's in bad shape. At this time, I don't have a proper second enclosure (not moving Charlie out of his digs, he'd be pissed!). Just wondering if you guys have thoughts on what would be best to use. I was thinking about getting...

Ma dude Charlie has been a new beardie since his enclosure doors started staying open! He hates pooping in his enclosure and my husband now bemoans the wee spots left by our intrepid explorer :lol: I was worried about our feline inhabitants, and canine...but no fear here. A rare moment when...

I learned something new this past week... Charlie had this weird formed excretion come out of him the other day and I wrote it off as just a weird poo as he'd been acting cranky and is shedding. Then this weekend, I noticed a dark, hard blob at his vent and thought it was stuck poo - so I...

Hey all :wave: Charlie is a full grown beardie now and doing great! I do have a question though - does anyone else's beardie like to leave their enclosure to bask near a door even if said space is cold as heck? Charlie has taken to going to our back patio doors (windowed ones) and just chillin...

I don't have a photo...yet. Charlie is a grumpy. I noticed his chin looking sore again, so I've been putting honey on it. Last night I picked him up to cuddle - sidebar: I had been noticing him oddly lifting his front paws the last couple of days. I took a close look at his paws as I was going...

I am trying really hard not to lose it. I thought I did everything right. He won't eat. Today I saw this - I've put betadine on it. I'm completely broke. I have a friend who is a vet (she's the one that treated and operated on my Evee). I've sent her the picture to see if she has advice. I...

I was going to post this in enclosures, but wasn't sure if it fit there even though it is about an enclosure...hope that made sense. I really don't like Charlie's enclosure. I liked it when I had it fixed up, but then I had to remove the customs I did as it turned out not to be safe for him. I...

It feels like forever since I chatted with folk on here...I guess that's what happens with a healthy beardie! 8) Here's Charlie being a boss, watching the sunset. I think he wants to brumate. He's not been eating much, and looks sleepy/grumpy a lot. None of my beardies ever went through...

sooo...I just got an order of 1100 BSFL for my Charlie. The person I bought them from sent them in soil. How in the heck do you separate them from the dirt for feeding??? They move fast too! Charlie enjoyed them :)

He's now refusing to eat crickets. He will literally drop his butt to the ground and eye me until I give him a worm...which until later today when I get some BSFL has been waxworms, superworms, butterworms, hornworms - ANY worm, he LOVES. He LOVES bok choy. If I so much as attempt to include a...

Hey everyone - soo....when I bought Charlie, he was sold as a 'fancy' beardie at petsmart (lol yeah ok). Anyway. He was tiny, we figured 6 to 8 weeks. He was 31g and about 8 to 9 inches long. That was Feb 27th. I weighed him on Friday - 2 months since I got him. He is now 15 inches long and 199...

So...I rushed to finish Charlie's enclosure back in March to get him in it (he was in a temporary pen that my 3 year old loved to access). Now that rush job is showing...ugh. This is the enclosure. The hammock in between the upper levels has come off on one side (I applied too much pressure...

LOL...poor Charlie. Thinking he was younger than we realized as today his true sex is showing through! Yup...2 bumps...my girl is a boy lol

I wish I was joking. Every time Charlie has a movement she does so in her tree. Not the dead looking one with no greenery...no, no...that would be too easy to clean. No, my darling baby girl has to do it in the tree with spiky like shrubbery. I don't know why. It literally sticks into EVERY...

So little Charlie somehow managed to hurt one of her toes. She seems to have somehow ripped her nail off :( Other than keeping an eye on it, should I put anything on it? I'm worried she lick whatever I use off... FYI - it doesn't seem to be bothering her, so it's probably just me being...
