Hey guys, I'm really hoping someone here has some advice because I can't seem to find any information on the web to help me out. My male beardie Jenny (ik he has a girl name..we don't talk about that LOL :lol: ) went into brumation in July. Kept to the coolest spot in his tank, slept all day...

I called the only place in my area that will see exotics and their price for a fecal was reasonable but then they told me they wouldn't tell me the actual results of the fecal unless I brought Jenny in for the vet to examine- which would be an ADDITIONAL cost. ugh. :banghead: Good to know the...

Hey guys, my beardie Jenny has been having some unhealthy looking stool lately. It started as foul smelling loose stool about a week ago-not completely liquid, but also not healthy and solid. I went away on spring break two weeks ago and left Jenny with a petsitter so I figured the loose stool...

This is kind of a random question, but I use API Stress Coat Water Conditioner for my fish tank and I was wondering if it's safe for my beardie to drink tap water treated with it. Right now I'm just buying gallon water jugs to fill her dish because I don't trust my tap (if I won't drink it I'm...

Hey guys! I saw that there's a very similar topic to this already posted but it wasn't asking about the cheapest good quality reptile supplies in general so I'm making another thread. I'm looking to re-do Jenny's tank because she's still in the same setup I got her in and it's pretty sparse and...

I've heard of beardie owners having trouble getting their dragons to drink but Jenny is surprisingly really good with that, she'll climb all the way in her water dish on occasion and just chill out :lol: I've been feeding her twice a day but I'll definitely up it to three to try to get her to...

Another Jenny update- Jenny has been doing much much better, again thanks so so much to everyone who has commented! She's been eating on her own for a few weeks now, mostly crickets (her favorite) but also some phoenix worms and I put collard greens out for her daily but she generally has no...

Would crickets/ phoenix worms (if available) from petco or petsmart be okay to buy? I know both chains get their pets from terrible breeders, but I'm not sure about the quality of their crickets? I'd like to avoid ordering online because I know if my landlord happened to see a box of live...

Mini Jenny update- Today has been a really great day for Jenny! She's had both her eyes open nearly all day which is a major achievement considering the longest I've seen her eyes open had been 5 minutes when I'd agitated her enough during feeding for her to force her good eye open. The good eye...

I've been giving her 12 hours of light each day but I'll make it 14 from now on. I forgot to mention in my update post I've also been cleaning her eyes with saline once a day but at a different time than when I wash her eyes with honey. I'll start doing both of them at once 2x per day. Since she...

Thanks for the tip, I'll reduce bathing a bit. It's a compact fluorescent lamp so I don't think it's either? But I'm going to run to the store in a bit to get wire to hang it inside the tank and hopefully by the end of the week ill get to petsmart to get a proper thermometer and UVB.

Thank you so so much to everyone who has replied! A little update on Jenny- I was able to get a veterinarians opinion on her eyes (again not an exotics vet but I can't afford a vet consultation right now so all I have to work with is the connections I have) and without examining Jenny the Dr...
