Hi Tracie, Sorry I got caught up with work and meant to update. She is eating both greens and dubias (although I am drastically running out and none of the shops are supplying thanks to the pandemic... hoping they still supply dried bugs and repashy at least) She also done a bowel movement...

Hi Tracie, She is basking - seems to be pretty active in the sense that she's got her head raised and is not resting it on her arms so to speak - looking around my room and looks at me when I call her. I tried offering her some water and she refused to drink it - I'll try again soon. I noticed...

Thanks! We are much doing much better now. Also thanks for clarifying that our virus wouldn't affect her - it's always good to double check. So do you think I should wait for another bowel movement before proceeding to the vet?

Hi all - My 2 year old laid her second clutch of eggs (some thirty odd) two days ago - and has been slowly regaining her appetite (although she still won't touch the greens)... but today she done her first bowel movement since laying and it was horrible Diarrhea it stank so bad, poor babba. Is...

thanks for replying so quickly! Her uvb is T8 (18w) I switch off the heat lamp for maybe 30 mins because its a 100w and i usually buy her the 75w since its mounted inside her tank. It gets hot shes hardly ever directly under it but she still stays on the warm side. I don't have heat...

I haven't been on this site in ages - but here I am again to ask a couple of questions maybe I'm doing something wrong. So recently I changed my 2 year old's diet from Dubias (and some greens that she refuses to eat but I place in there anyways) to dubias, plus some superworms (or morio worms)...

Apart from the lights, I suggest you keep in mind that your young one is still growing and adapting to their new environment. Some behaviour traits will continue to change along as they continue to grow into adulthood. I understand worrying over doing something wrong and fearing that you might...

Hello beloved scaly parents :) Just curious as to how often a female dragon can lay clutches during the spring/summer portion of the year. My female laid 2 clutches this year (one week apart total 30 ish eggs its difficult to count because she smashed a couple of them in her tank) and I want...

Hiya, The second picture looks like the tail is about to shed hence the possible darker than usual tail tip. It's that bump that concerns me. Was it always like that? It kind of looks like necrosis to me, not tail rot - but I'd wait for a second opinion if I were you.

Thanks so much for your help!!

Heyo So my female dragon had laid her very first clutch of eggies about a month ago, 17 good (infertile) eggs. And she continued to eat normally and bask. A couple of weeks later she began to refuse food (although she would eat a dubia a day) and stay in the cold area, although she wasn't...

Glad she's improving! Good luck!

She shouldn't get impacted from the laybox because she's not ingesting it as there's no food present. (When impaction happens usually is over a course of a long time that they ingest a little bit of substrate with every meal they have) So I wouldn't worry too much about that. If it helps settle...

Hiya, Happy Birthday Mimsie <3 I can't really see anything wrong with her scales, it could be random discolouration (they do that sometimes) or just a bad scale which would probably regrow with the next shed. My dragon had something similar on her belly (i figured out it was her basking tile...

If you feel the need to take her to the vet by all means do so! it's no use worrying yourself to death! I know exactly how you feel! Make sure you find a decent one (I ended up mistakenly trusting someone who didn't even know if their tails fall off or not - not going there again) Regarding...

Looks to me like its similar to Bok choi / pak choi - which most dragons love and is good for them! I'm not sure about Endives but I googled their nutrition values and they seem to be high in vitamin A and they have 5% calcium so I would guess its not bad BUT it has some potassium in it so...

Hmm they do scratch a bit to find their comfiest position when prepping to sleep. I think that happens regardless of the dragon's gender. If she's active outside her tank I'd always take that as a good sign, even if its to find a comfy spot to sleep in :wink: That's good that she ate! Maybe...

Licking the calcium on its own might mean that she's not consuming enough through food itself. Its quite normal though, I've seen mine do it numerous times and I dust her food. It could be another sign that she's preparing to lay because she needs more calcium for the eggs. I tried to feel my...

Thanks for the suggestions! I've decided to remove my plants entirely and steralise the area. (I'm covered in bites myself from head to toe and its driving me insane!) Got to keep my babies safe!

It could be stress from relocation, plus the lack of lighting won't help. Dw you're doing the best you can! Tomorrow get the lighting and fix it up and you should see changes happen within the hours hopefully! S/he might still be off food but that again could be because of the move. It's...
