If you are considering breeding your own Dubia colony, the thread below covers pretty much anything you could want to know about Dubia, their bins, multiple heating sources, what to feed and what not to feed and on and on. About half way through the thread I posted some good info I obtained...

I bought one of these a few days ago and I'm still on the fence about it. It's solid, heavy and a beardie won't tip it over. I put it in while our beardie "Monster" was out of her enclosure and it had running water when I put her back in. I put her next to it and she looked at it for a minute...

Well, I'm assuming for the moment that some of the leftover greens I fed the Dubia may have had some mold on them. They were in good condition last night when I put them in the refrigerator, and just barely to the point that they didn't look fresh enough for me to eat myself. After I posted...

Good day ladies and gentlemen, I telework 40-60 hours a week from home with my Dubia colony close enough to me I can literally touch it with my elbow without hitting the armrest on the chair. Point being, I have a LOT of time to observe the actions of my Dubia in close proximity. I spend...

This is what I prefer: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010CY7NJY/ref=sspa_dk_detail_7?psc=1 Purperc - you could save yourself some money and make your own water crystals. The polymer I linked and the Fluker Farms water crystals are the same thing, but a great deal cheaper as you're not paying...

For Dubia roaches, I'd go for a bin that isn't clear. Roaches like it dark and will be more active, eat and breed better in the dark. I'd go for a taller bin. The link below has info for the cheapest egg crates I could find that are not recycled, which is important because of the risk of...

If you are a new beardie owner, don't freak out if you look at your beardie while sleeping and think it died - their metabolism slows down A LOT at night when they cool down and rest. Many people have thought they killed their dragon the first few nights. You can sit there and stare at them...

A new slave to a bearded dragon's whim...welcome to the club. That photo with the mismatched lines on his back looks almost exactly like Monster, my beardie. I bet if I showed this photo to my wife she would swear it was Monster with those markings. Yep, their poop really does stink. Our...

My bearded dragon "Monster" wasn't a big fan of Dubia roaches at first and just watched them closely, a bit suspect of them for a few days. I kept offering them to her for a few days until one crawled close to her and she finally ate one, then she was in love with Dubia! Love at first bite...

I bought a couple of those from Amazon here in the USA about a year ago for about $1.90 each with free shipping (Amazon Prime), but I cannot find them now. Love them and wish I'd bought 10+! I saw them in Fahrenheit as well, but they are gone too. :oops: :oops: :oops: Thanks V&S! I can't...

Congratulations on doing your homework first before bringing your BD home! I wish more people would do that. You already have the respect of many of these forum members for that action alone! A BD will quickly outgrow a 20 gallon tank...keep an eye out at PetCo or Pet Smart (I get them...

I'm not on the forums very often, but I did see this and watched your video. That is one gorgeous little dragon! I'm sorry you are/were having issues and hope this great info has helped. I had forgotten some of the things people posted so it was a good refresher. I found myself peeking over...

You know what Fijea, I didn't realize it until you said it, but I typically pick my BD up the same way.

if you plan on letting your dragon roam freely around the house, it may be a good idea to get a little leash for her. At least that way if she gets under something and you are not able to find her, you'll be able to see the leash...at least until you get used to all the places she likes to go...

Monster is about 2 years old and she doesn't really drink from anywhere else than when she takes a bath. Good thing for her she seems to like her baths! What water temp do you all use for bathing your dragon? Mine seems happiest at 100-102 Fahrenheit with the IR Thermometer. If I go much...

Hey Vince, You could also try some yellow dandelion flowers...my BD "Monster" goes nuts over those. Just don't do this if you are unsure if there could be any pesticides used in the area - it's not worth the risk. (edit) I almost forgot - when Monster was young she would barely eat because...

Hey, Rankins, When you get time, or if you have a list, could you tell me what you put in the feed for your bugs. I have a partial list I was able to find, but I have not clue how much of each you're mixing into the final product. I'm assuming it's not all a 1:1 ratio or the bee pollen would...

This is a bump/repost for anybody looking for Egg Crates. I had found two sources that were much cheaper than anywhere else, http://www.eggboxes.com/Item/13 and http://store.timberlinefresh.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=1913. The Timbeline site ships standard as $40/overnight shipping as most of...
