    I am in the process of writing a report on clinical findings. Studies are ongoing, but I am happy to help the bearded dragon community; obviously this has become my specialty and we are aggressively looking for veterinarians and biologists to join the battle. I will post my personal blog and...

    Moira still not eating and inactive... frustrating.

    With reptiles it sometimes takes a full workup You may not know this but most basic blood tests do not test for bigger issues like meningitis. If though you are aware of this, and your vet was informed of your concerns and you did get a full workup, then I say go to another vet, it is...

    new owner few questions

    First things first I want to say I appreciate that you care. This dragon was probably unwanted and they pawned it off on you, and now your researching how to give it proper care. Great on you In MY opinion the mercury vapor bulbs are the best, and you do not NEED any more lighting, but if you...

    Moira still not eating and inactive... frustrating.

    I recommend a product called BENE-BAC It loads the gut with micro flora that are there naturally, helps to battle any immune deficiency especially if the animal has been using all they have to try and get better. Be weary of things like meningitis and hepatitis, gout, and even thyroid...

    Cant move back legs - pinched nerve

    Sorry - one important detail I forgot. One of these dragons I produced, not knowing that the dragons were as follows a male pogona barbata 50% and 50% vitticeps (he was produced at a research facility for reptiles, and I have all of his bloodwork, and the scale count comparisons. He was...

    Cant move back legs - pinched nerve

    As some of you may know I run a rescue and sanctuary in Canada. This year I have had an issue come to my attention that I think needs addressing, and I think there may be more people out there needing support for these seemingly neurologically sound disabilities. I have five dragons now, of...

    HELP!!! WHAT IS THIS!?!

    to be honest it looks like sperm, or a sperm plug. In my experiences older males beardies usually have some kind of clearance of hemipenes after brummation. Usually not noticed, but sometimes pretty gross depending on how active the dragon has been, how often he sees girls, if he's bred etc. I...

    A sanctuary operating in the GTA

    Aside from all the super technical stuff, I personally house over 100 bearded dragons right now, 36 full adults, 12 juveniles, and the rest are babies; I really hope that I can share all of the things I learn and have learned along the way, it's a bumpy ride. Most of the adults are rescues, only...

    Rescued Adult Beardie

    I really honestly think you are doing a wonderful job in trying to help him, the most he can ask for is a human who wants to understand. I know you've tried and searched everything, I really think this dragon could benefit from some organic extracts. You know how to research...get some...
