At the start of September we rescued a 6 or 7 year old female. Have been working to get her healthy again and have managed to get her weight up from 350g to 380g. She's blind on one side, so gets very frustrated eating bugs and missing them, so it's slow going. The past week she's turned down...

Hi, just wondering what the best SLOW foods are for a half blind, slightly rickety beardo. She prefers to be handfed EVERYTHING because she just misses all the time and gets fed up and gives up. So nothing too fast, she hadn't eaten bugs for months when I got her bc she was left to hunt them and...

Updates below... So I knew I'd be here sooner or later. Health forum. Hi. Picked up a rescue dragon at the weekend, very little history known, rescue place seemed OK except she was on sand and in a smallish tank in the top corner of the wall, poor lonely baby. Anyway, I've had her... 2...

Hi all, I was here a lot when we got our last beardie, Smaug, but haven't been around for a few years. We lost him a couple of months back, after spending almost a year pipette feeding him blended food and watching him waste slowly away. But while he was still happy, we were. As he became less...

Just wondering if anyone has an opinion on the best type of harness and lead for a beardie. Our Smaugio loves coming out for a chill with us, but sometimes I have to grab him quick if he's about to leap off something or poddle curiously under somewhere he shouldn't. He's quite happy to be...

Have just bought a bigger viv for our Smaugio, but the basking lamp has a dome fixture on top of a screened circle on the top of the wooden roof of the tank. In his current house it's fitted inside the ceiling. Is it going to cause him any issues swapping over? I know it sounds like a silly...

Poor bebby Smaugio, trying to shed his head. I love him like this. I sing Frozen songs at him while I gently scritch him with a baby toothbrush in the bath. He pretends to hate it and glares the look of death at me, but we know he loves it really - especially when he comes over for more scritching!

So in my daughter's (translate as 'mine') mealworm colony / science project / odd pet collection we found this weirdo... not sure if it's just a very big very dark mealie, or a baby morio. Any ideas anyone? By the way, I'm talking about the MEDIUM ONE pictured with a normal fully grown...

He weighs about 330g, and is just over 17 inches long. I had him down as about 7 months old, but I'm quickly rethinking this. He was dinky when we got him at the beginning of December (3mo ago), only about 11inches and light as a feather, with pretty much no fat reserves at all. The pet shop...

Does anyone know the best conditions to hatch the mealworm pupa? We have a lovely wriggly drawer of worms, a rather graveyard-like drawer of pupa (pupae/pupas?), and a pretty lonely drawer with ONE solitary beetle. He must be going bonkers in there on his own. But none of the other pupa seem to...
