Spike is a very spoiled little girl. If not by me, then by my kids. My oldest mostly as my youngest is only 5, but he does still sit with me or his Bubby when we have Spike out and pets her. She is an attention fiend. :D The more attention she gets, the happier she is. I took this about 20 or...

Welp, I definitely didn't realize just how long it has been since I have posted on here about Spike, until I decided to log on just now. It has been forever! O.O Any who, I suppose I can give an update, seeing as how I haven't in a good while. March 26th, just a few days away, will make 2...

Spike is starting to feel better, that is for sure. I took her outside for some sun on Friday and she wondered around in the grass for a bit, and ate 3 dandelions (I couldn't keep her from them. Haha) She is still drinking, but slowing down. Her urate is no longer orange, but not exactly white...

Just figured i'd drop in a small update since it has been a few days. Spike is drinking A LOT of water, which isn't normal for her, but i'm chalking it up to the fact that she isn't really eating either. Her tongue/mouth is coming back to her normal pink-ish color, so there is that. She ate 4...

Nope. Not that I have noticed. She has been laying underneath her log a little more, but that is just her normal for when she is working on a shed, but there aren't any indicators of another one about to happen.

Hey everyone, I might be over reacting, but I am beginning to think Spike might be getting sick on me. Tank: - 36L x 18W X 12H (Small, I know, but she gets plenty of out side tank time to run around and explore in safe areas of the house.) - 100w Basking Spot Lamp - 22" 10.0 T5 HO UVB - Tile...

Spike spent a good bit of time out of her cage yesterday, but she was still a lazy lounge lizard. :D She spent a good bit of time using me as a giant pillow, watching NCIS with me on Netflix. Once she turned to face me, like in the pic, it was one of those, "k, hooman, i'm done." She was looking...

Oh my goodness. You have no idea. It is like you blink and BOOM! Bearded dragon and kiddos alike. Haha. In all honesty, I loved watching her grow, but she was a very fragile baby. More times than not, she scared the poo out of me not only with being so small, but her lack of an appetite, too...

As far as her care goes, I owe that to everyone on here. If it wasn't for this forum and the members, I don't know if Spike would be as healthy as she is now. Cause, it's no secret, I was one of those people who believed the pet store and bought one of those reptile starter kits with all the...

I haven't been on much lately, but I figured I would drop a quick update on Spike. On March 26th 2017, I brought this tiny little scaly thing home that my oldest son picked out. She glass surfed the tank at the pet store and ran back and forth in order to get my son's attention. She wasn't...

Time is flying by so quickly! In a little over 2 months, Spike will have been with us for a year! It doesn't seem like it, but it just dawned on me today while I was weighing her. The little booger wouldn't hold still for me to get a correct measurement of her length, but she is 15-16 inches...

Spike has been quite the little eater, especially over the past 2 months. I think I have spent close to as much money in food for her over 2 months as I have in about a 4 month span. I'm not complaining, but it does amaze me. She used to not eat a whole lot, like to the point that I was...

Well, I have been MIA for a while. Real life has been quite busy for me, especially with the holidays coming up. Anywho, Spike is perfectly healthy and still growing. She has been in a constant shed since my last post. She must have hit a growth spurt on me. Spike is now 15 inches long and 9...

Emmie is back to her old self, that is for sure. She is only 16 lbs, so she isn't all that big to begin with. She is the perfect little pooch for my oldest, always wanting his attention and love. And she is so gentle with the youngest, too. She has never had puppies in her life, but to watch her...

That is Emmie, the day I took her to the vet. She has this tiny Chihuahua head, but the Beagle body. Haha. She isn't quite proportionate. The antibiotics seem to be helping Tweety. He isn't all fluffed up anymore and his aggressiveness is going down. I can pet him again without him nailing the...

So, it has been a little bit since my last post. Spike is completely fine. She is going through a full body shed, which is taking so far, about a week and a half to 2 weeks, and she still isn't quite done. Her eating has slowed a little, but not a lot. I just chalk it up to her shedding...

Haha. I guess even if she doesn't out grow her hatred for greens, at least I have the satisfaction of knowing that the dubias she eats are packed full of the stuff. At least they will eat it! Spike is still in the process of her shedding, she still has half her back and her tummy to go, but it...

Spike is definitely spunky. Haha. She loves her some dubias, but I did get an awful mean glare from her earlier today. I always offer fresh salad even though she never touches it, so I just toss it in the bug bin. Today, I guess I must have squished one of the dubia too hard when I got it out...

Soo.... It has been a while since I have posted. I have been keeping up and reading on the board, but nothing really on mine. October 26th, will make 6 months that I have had Spike, so she is roughly 7 months old, give or take a bit. Spike is still 13 inches long and weighing in at 160 grams. I...
