Hi Tracie, I haven't tried butterworms because they're expensive and I'm afraid he'll like them but I won't be able to buy enough to keep him happy. I've tried bell peppers, carrots, strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries but he won't try any of them. The good news is that I got him to...

I've tried withholding food before, when he wouldn't eat his dusted dubias, but it was going on for two weeks and he still hadn't eaten. I've also tried for shorter amounts of time (2-3 days) but I just don't think it's a good method for him, he doesn't care, and starts to get really dehydrated...

My 9-10 month old will only eat supers and wax worms at this point. He will occasionally eat his greens, 4x a week max but usually more like 2x. His main staple used to be dubias but now he won't eat them. He used to also LOVE hornworms and get super excited at the sight of the container, as it...

My Petsmart baby (well, he's like 9 mos old now but he'll always be my little baby xD) was sick when I brought him home but I didn't really know better. I thought he was just super docile and chill but, luckily, I was feeding him correctly and had almost the right lights. (I had the wrong UVB...

Hi, Just for future reference, I wouldn't take him to that clinic you posted. When I first got my beardie, he had very bad bloating and I took him there based on Yelp/Google reviews because they're very positive. However, they tried to tell me that I was feeding him too much (2-3x a day, as...

Hello, I gave him non dusted ones for breakfast, which he happily ate, and then offered dusted ones for his second meal. He was totally not interested. I left them in there for a couple hours before switching them out for plain ones again and he attacked those immediately. I couldn't get the...

Definitely not an appetite problem! He ravenously attacked his bugs as soon as he realized they had no calcium. It's fascinating that he can see and/or smell the difference so well.

Yeah, I'll definitely stop only offering him dusted ones. As soon as I'm done typing this reply, I'll clean out his bowl so it doesn't smell like the calcium anymore and get him some fresh dubias from the bin. I was just so worried about his calcium intake and MBD that I wanted to try to get him...

Hello, A week ago, I posted in the feeding section about how my 7-8 month old has been refusing to eat dusted dubias. At that point, it had been going on for a couple weeks but I kept feeling bad for "starving" him by only offering dusted ones so he only went about 3 days without eating...

I'm unable to get to the store today but will go tomorrow. In the meantime, I tried dusting today with some of a sample of Zoo Med's calcium that I got for free a while ago instead of the Fluker's. Still no interest though. He stares at them for a bit but then turns away. I'll try getting and...

He's 7-8 months old and it's Fluker's Repta Cal but he also won't eat his multivitamin Rep Cal Herptivite either. I can't give him calcium via other means right before he eats the cockroaches?

For the past two weeks, my beardie has been refusing to eat his dubias if they're dusted. I've narrowed it down to that because, as soon as I switch them out with non-dusted ones, he eats like a little pig. I've tried only offering the calcium ones until he ate but he went three days without...

Well, the photo doesn't show it as well as you can see with your eyes but here's his tail: And this is what he looks like today. Still very round. Although, his appetite is back to normal. Yesterday must have just been an off day. To clarify, the consensus is that he just has a big...

I'm pretty sure he's a he but I will take a photo with his tail lifted tomorrow morning. As far as age goes, this is what he looked like on Aug 8th. I'd had him for about a week when I took this pic. His tummy doesn't feel lumpy, just really squishy. His appetite was normal, up until today...

Hello everyone, I can't tell if Toad is looking fat or bloated but, the last time this happened, it was because he had a very bad coccidia count. He went through his treatment and got a clear fecal two weeks later. That was back in September though. I would say this extra "squishiness" has...

So, yeah, it's definitely foam. Polyurethane foam resin.

Hello, I ordered a magnetic ledge off of Amazon and went for the used- like new one because of the discounted price, without too much thought. It's set to arrive today but I was suddenly thinking about the fact that it could harbor something like yellow fungus or a parasite. You just never...

My initial thought is that maybe he's a wild Texas horned lizard. They kinda look like beardies who are "regrowing" a tail lol. This is what they look like:

I've noticed with my beardie that the tip of his tail will change colors and get darker like his back and tummy when he's upset or basking and trying to get warm. So I'd say it's just that.

From personal experience when Ive had to take antibiotics and when we had to give them to my bf's beardie, I'm not surprised Pablo feels better after a couple doses! That's often the trouble with antibiotics. People will feel better quickly so they don't think they need to take the full course...
