Thank you all! My parents are letting me get a leopard gecko in about 2, maybe 3 weeks for my birthday. I've decided I'm going to get a female super snow leopard gecko, and name her Ponyo (after my favorite anime movie from my childhood lol). I really appreciate the input, and I'm excited to add...

Probably but on the warm side of the enclosure you should have a heating pad under the tank. Also, as the gecko ages, you will need to have at least a 20 gallon enclosure for it.

Hey. My birthday is coming up soon, and my parents have decided to let me add on to my animal collection. I wanted a black and white Argentine Tegu but they said no because it's "too big" :roll: :x So anyways, I decided that I'm either going with a crested gecko or a leopard gecko. I'm...

Guys I haven't been on this site for awhile but I just wanted to let you know Dexter is doing fine! He's gained a lot of weight and is getting huge! His poop cycles are still off, but he's healthy and well.

Can you post pics of him?

my apologies for being a year late... did you ever get a necropsy to see what exactly happened to the poor darling? i'm so sorry for your loss. my 6 month old beardie (Dexter) just got diagnosed with early onset MBD today.... luckily I took him in early enough to where we could diagnose it, but...

also, about that gagging noise. did it sound like a click? or did it literally sound like someone gagging before they throw up?

also, i see you said her poop is very runny and it smells bad. this could possibly be a sign of two things. it could be parasites, or it could be Metabolic Bone Disease. either way, you need to take your girl to the nearest reptile vet/ exotic animal vet ASAP. also, the pellets aren't too good...

hey. i see no one else has decided to help you, i apologize. i am a first time owner myself, but since i want to be an exotic animal vet, i do my searching, and i feel i have some knowledge. so, when she drinks a lot of water, does it look like she's swallowing a lot? like, does her beard kind...

It's not a tube light, and idk if I can afford that right now. No, she didn't recommend any of that. I've been giving him as many baths as possible to keep him hydrated. He doesn't look like it's bothering him that he hasn't pooped, he seems to be doing fine.

Honestly, he's lived a long life. I know it's so tough to deal with this, it's horrible. I wish our little darling beardies could just live forever. But you don't want your baby to suffer. I know this is very hard to do, but you might have to let go if there's nothing you can do. Sometimes it...

also, could anyone reply to my other post? I can't get my beardie to poop. I just posted on that.

Thanks guys. I will be sure to get new carpet as soon as possible. And yes, he does have parasites. I'm treating him for pinworms as of yesterday.

Okay, so, my beardie is about 4 months old, and I got him as a hatchling, just a couple days old. I've never had any problems with him, and he's my sweet little boy. I'd do anything for him. So yesterday, he was acting really lethargic, keeping his head down, closing his eyes, and he was pale...

I know this isn't an emergency, but it still worries me. My beardie's cage stinks so bad, it smells like a petting zoo. I have to hold my breath when I put my head in the cage. I clean out his poop once it's dried out so that it doesn't run all over the place. He's in a 40 gal tank, on...

You're not being silly, it's completely normal to have questions. :lol: I don't think it's too dark in there, because my beardie is in my room, which I am not in there often, other than to sleep, get some time alone, or get Dexter out. It is always dark in my room, but Dexter is always awake...

Does she have room to run around, or get away from the heat if it's too hot? Do you have any decorations in there? (i.e. basking rock/log, background for tank, things to climb on) It might be too small of a viv for her. My beardie is only like 7 or 8 inches, but he's in a 40 gallon and he does...

This is amazing. This dragon had slim to none chance of living, and you were an amazing person and took him in. You decided that you would put great effort into saving this poor defenseless animal's life, AND took him home with you to ensure proper care upon him. You have saved this bearded...
