Trying to figure out how shedding and appetite interact. Arthur came to me in a full body shed, but he was a ravenous little thing. Three weeks later, he's getting ready to shed again, and over the last few days I've noticed a drop in appetite at Dubia Time. Considering I also know he has worms...

IS it safe to feed big, freshly moulted Dubia to my 3 month old bearded dragon? A number of times, I've been able to catch cockroaches mid-moult and thought they looked like a delicious treat for him. Only problem is, they were over the size limit. Is it safe to feed these freshly moulted soft...

Sometimes, when Arthur is basking he'll uncurl and stretch out his toes ramrod straight for a second, then return to his basking position. Should I be worried? Waiting on hearing back from all the vets who I'm calling to try and find a reptile specialist or at least an exotics vet with lots of...

Just call me Garrus. I've done research on what lizard would work best for me as a pet, and after a competition between Ackie monitors, blue-tongued skinks, and bearded dragons, the bearded dragon beat out the Ackie monitor for the #1 spot. I'm in the process of looking at breeders, and above...
