    Elderly Rescue Beardie

    A few days ago I was given an eight year old beardie (male) whose previous owners felt they were somewhat neglecting him. I don't have a lot of information about his previous care, but when I picked him up I noticed that he did not have a UVB light (he does now) and a heat lamp that may not...

    Gout/Swollen Joints

    My poor beardie has gout, as confirmed the vet. Despite feeding him a watered down nutritional supplement (which we have since stopped) to try to flush out some of the crystals and a surgery to manually clean out the joints, he hasn't gotten any better. The vet said it might be a liver issue...

    Light Questions in tall tank

    So I was checking over my beardie's lights and am wondering if they need adjusted. He's about three years old and in a 75 gallon tank. His lights sit about 14 inches from his rocks. I'm currently using an Exo terra UVB 150 13watt desert terrarium bulb, but I realized that the exo terra...

    Fruits for Beardies

    I'm a first time bearded dragon owner, although I've had my dragon for a little over two years now. While he used to be extremely picky about fruits and veggies (he used to only eat bok choy and pick around anything else), he's been much more willing to try other foods! Are there any...
