    A bit lethargic but is eating now.

    Okay, I posted a few months ago with concerns about my dragon being extremely active but not eating. About a month ago she began to slow down. Then for the past three weeks she's been almost lethargic. She still moves around, especially when she wants to go under her log. Sometimes she'll...

    Very active but hasn't eaten after brumation.

    Hi, I'm at my wit's end trying to figure out why my dragon won't eat. She'll be a year old on May 3rd, she's about 18-19 inches long and last time she was weighed she was 450g. Basking spot 95-100 degrees, hot side about 85, cool side usually between 75-78. UVB is reptisun 10.0 and has...

    Is something wrong? Has anybody experienced this?

    A little over a week ago I expressed my concern about Lyrica, trying to figure out if she has parasites or is going through a semi-brumation. I'm still not sure what's she's doing and it's starting to worry me. I want to take her to the vet but it's unlikely to happen until after the holidays...

    Parasites or Semi-Brumation?

    Lately my dragon, Lyrica, has been a bit sluggish lately. She's 7 1/2 months old now and is about 17 inches long. Her terrarium is a 36" x 18" x 18" with temps about 78 degrees on the cool side, about 85 degrees on the warm side and her basking spot is about 100-105 degrees. At night, I don't...

    Winter slow down? Or just lazy?

    For the past week, I noticed that Lyrica (5 months old) is starting to act a tad lazy, for a lack of a better term. She doesn't move often from her basking spot and I noticed that she's pooping a little less often. By that I mean she went from pooping every other day to every two days. Though...

    Beardie ate a fly.

    I live next to a horse barn so sometimes flies will get in through the door and make their way to my room. I've always been careful to kill them as soon as I see them but while I was holding Lyrica a fly got into her terrarium. I chased it out and put Lyrica back in but just as I was closing...

    Confusions of a new beardie owner.

    See what I did there? Anyway, I've had Lyrica for three weeks now and I'd like a bit of feedback on my progress as a first time owner of a beardie. Especially since I get more confused as the days go by. Lyrica is currently 10 weeks old and seems healthy enough. She eats both her bugs and...

    High humidity, how urgent is it?

    When I first tested the temperatures and humidity in Lyrica's terrarium last month, it seemed like the humidity levels were fine. A little under %40 like most sites recommend. But I forgot that Houston gets very humid when the summer showers arrive. Now the humidity is around %57 on the cool...

    Meet Lyrica

    After about four years of research and about a year and a half of preparations, I've finally got my bearded dragon! :D She arrived this morning at around 7:40 AM. The website listed her as a "probable female" but it's still a bit early to be %100 sure so until then I'm going to refer to her...

    Anybody in Houston Want Some Free Male Dubias?

    Just separated a bunch of adult male dubia roaches from my bin. There are over 30 males in there that I don't need. I'd hate to see them go to waste. Anybody in the Houston area want them? I have no means to send them through the mail so they'll have to be picked up. I'm leaving at 6PM to...

    Dubias Dieing. Any suggestions?

    I've recently bought some adult dubia roaches to start a colony of feeders in preparation for my bearded dragon next year. But I'm kind of new at this. I've found two of my adult roaches dead. I initially bought 15 adult roaches: 10 females, 5 males. So far here is my setup for them. They...
