    Extremely frustrated with my picky eater

    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...

    1 week of completely refusing calcium dusted food

    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...

    Beardie refusing to eat dubias if they're dusted with calciu

    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...

    Worried he looks bloated again like when he had coccidia...

    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...

    Ordered "used-like new" habitat decor-- health risk?

    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...

    Should we be force feeding him??

    Hello, My boyfriend recently took his dragon Rex to the vet because he'd been increasingly lethargic, black beard, and then stopped eating/pooping for 3-4 days. Physical exam was good and, after a fecal, the vet said he had a high concentration of bacteria and prescribed him Baytril. I went...

    Running around, head bobbing at his reflection

    Okay, so, I've posted about my baby beardie before (who is doing great now) but now I'm posting about my boyfriend's. His beardie, Rex, was 5-6 weeks old when we brought him home on July 6th. He's about 250 grams now and is definitely a boy, as his hemipenes are easily seen. Gradually over the...

    How old would you guesstimate he is?

    Hello, My beardie is doing better, very slowly, after his battle with coccidia (for those who helped me before). I was just wondering how old you guys might guesstimate he is. I was thinking 4 months? But I don't know. I got him July 29th and this is how big he was: This is him today...

    Does he need to go back to a vet asap?

    Hello, I originally posted in Health about my baby beardie's bloating. Long story short, he had a lot of coccidia and the vet prescribed him 15mg/ml Ponazuril at 0.05 ml a day for 14 days. After talking to Tracie, we decided 0.07 ml for three days was much better. At this point, he's had 2...

    Questions about what vet said vs what I read on here

    Hello, I have been reading this forum since I got my baby dragon but never signed up until now. He's 3-4 months old and weighed 48 grams at the vet. I took him to see an exotic pet vet today because he was looking really bloated. It looked worse this morning, compared to last night, but got...
