    Vegetable Crazed

    So, I'm not sure how old Skywalker is, but my best estimate would be 6-8 months. But in the last month or so (maybe closer to 3 weeks) he's been turning his nose up at crickets and roaches, but goes NUTS over vegetables. I know they eventually switch ratios to eat more veggies than bugs, but...

    Classroom Pets

    Asking on behalf of my aunt. She wants to know if a Bearded Dragon would be an okay classroom pet. (for older kids, like middle-high school ages.) I told her I really wasn't sure but I knew exactly where to ask :lol:

    Broken rib?

    I only noticed this about two weeks ago. But his behavior had not changed, he was eating very well, seems to have no trouble moving, and does not react as if in pain when handled. He's a little dark right now because it's bed time and I just got back from work (10pm) so I only turned the light...

    some nasty poo

    Skywalker took a bath today to loosen up some shed...and dropped a BOMB...or two....okay, three, in the sink. I could smell it. From under the water.. And let me tell you now, it was pretty rank. But aside from the 3 regular looking logs and one healthy looking urate, it also had a lot of...

    Length and Weight

    So, I've had Skywalker for a little less than a month now. He went from being 6 1/2 inches to 7 inches long. I don't know how old he is really, and I don't know how much he weighed when I brought him home. But as of today at 7 inches long, he's 19 grams. Does that sound like he's on a good...

    Little Black Beetles- what are they?

    https://www.instagram.com/p/BPLRiSph-mt/?taken-by=skywalker_drgn I just received an order of dubias...and when I dumped the container into a larger container, I noticed some of these tiny black beetles running around with them. o_o I caught 2 in the video. Any idea what they are? :lol:

    Skywalker's a Dork

    So I'm pretty new to owning reptiles. I had a snake when I was younger (but you know...when you're a kid, your parents "help" you. And by help I mean it's basically their pet until you grow up and know what you're doing.) My uncle, whom I am very close with, has always had reptiles. Snakes...

    Glad I switched Substrates (pics)

    So, this is kinda gross? But it was suggested to me by you lovely people here that I get rid of the sand in my tank and use the reptile carpet I had instead, which is what I spent this morning doing. (cleaning it out, and putting the carpet in, etc.) Skywalker pooped, and when I came back to...

    Excavator Clay? Any personal reviews?

    How do you all feel about the "Zoo Med Excavator Clay Burrowing Substrate" ??? I see a lot of posts about loose substrates being bad, but what about a clay substrate? Has anyone tried this? link: http://www.zoomed.com/db/products/EntryDetail.php?EntryID=188&DatabaseID=2&SearchID=3

    new to this- have questions

    This is the bearded dragon I got from Petco for Christmas. (I named him/her Skywalker.) I'm doing what I can to set up a proper tank. I was given one of those zilla, zoo-med whatever desert lizard set-ups. So it didn't come with a UVB bulb, I've added one. ( the petco here is terribly...

    New Owner and Beardie Duo- totes confused

    Hey everyone! This is Skywalker I've never owned a beardie before, and already I'm suffering from over-protective-new-mom-syndrome. He's a cool little lizard! (or she...quite frankly I can't tell yet.) Quick as lightning, likes to lick everything (lol), but doesn't seem to have...
