The lamps are out of stock everywhere, she’s been about 3.5 months without UVB, I still have her old lamp on but...

    Red spot on leg

    Hi everyone. Cleo has this red mark on her leg and I’m not sure what it is. I remember it being a grey color first and it felt quite hard to touch, and now it looks like this and there appears to be a loose scale next to it. She’s been to the vet for a health check today and he couldn’t find...

    Just laid eggs!

    hi everyone. I just checked on my beardie and saw that she had laid 21 eggs. They are infertile and I thought she was just hormonal due to it being mating season, so I was pretty surprised to see all those eggs. Should I expect to see any more of them? And what should I do in regards to...

    Tank is too hot

    Hi. The temperatures in Cleo’s tank have been getting too high due to the hot weather, with it being around 47 degrees C at her basking spot, which I know is way too hot. It’s usually at 40-43. I’ve been keeping her tank open slightly, but it doesn’t really help much. Should I turn the heat lamp...

    Feeding times

    Hi. My beardie, Cleo, is now a year old. Im just wondering what times would be best to feed her? For example, would it be best to give her salad in the morning and then livefood in the evening, or the other way around? If I’m correct, she should be eating livefood once a day now. Also, how...

    12 month feeding schedule?

    Hi everyone :) My beardie is 12 months old next month and I was just wondering how you guys feed your dragons at this age? I’ve seen some people say they feed livefood once a day everyday but also I’ve seen some say they feed every other day. Also, do you offer salad everyday? I’m just trying...

    Calci-Worms

    Hi! I’m a bit confused about calci-worms. The website I buy livefood from say they’re the larvae of black soldier fly, which I’ve heard are very good feeders. But I read around on here and some say that there are two types of Calci Worms, and one is better as a treat and one as a staple. My...

    Mating season question

    Hi. Would mating season make a female beardie lose her appetite? Mine is currently going crazy, running and digging in her viv. She’s 10 months old. We thought she had eggs in January but she never laid. Thanks :)

    Breeding season?

    Hi. In January, my female beardie started showing signs of carrying infertile eggs. We took her to vet who said it’s possible she could lay but she never laid eggs and went back to normal. Now, she’s started acting the same way again. She’s making a mess of her viv and digging in the corners. I...

    Carrot tops?

    Hi everyone. Does anyone know if the green carrot tops are recommended for beardies? I’m struggling to find anything online about them. I’d mostly just be feeding her them occasionally. Thanks! :)

    Back to normal but no eggs?

    Hi. I recently posted about how my 8 month old female may possibly be carrying infertile eggs. She’s been to the vet who felt her stomach and said it’s very possible, and said to switch out the storage box I was using as a lay box for a cat litter tray, which she prefers as she can easily get...

    Infertile eggs?

    Hi. I recently posted about my beardie acting different and her habits changing, etc. I took her to the vet today and they couldn’t find anything wrong with her, I asked if it could be eggs but he couldn’t tell just by feeling her stomach as her stomach feels like it always does. He mentioned...

    So worried about beardie

    Hi. I have a bearded dragon that’s about 8 months old, she usually has a very healthy appetite but today she seems different. For a few days now she has been pooping in her viv which she never does, she usually waits to go in the bath, and she usually goes once a day but now she’s going twice...

    Daily salad?

    Hi everyone! What do you put in your beardie’s salad daily? Mine consists of spring greens and I’ll put one or two other fruit or veg in such as bell pepper, cucumber, watercress, etc. I use the beautiful dragons chart but I can’t find a lot of the staples such as mustard greens in the uk. And I...

    Cold weather killing crickets?

    Hi. Is anyone else having a problem with crickets dying in the winter? My dad got 3 tubs today and there are about 3 alive in each of the tubs. The girl in the store said that they would just need to be warmed up in order for them to perk up. However, they've been in my house for almost 5 hours...

    Substitute for tiles?

    Hi everyone. I was just wondering if there is an alternative to using tiles in the viv? I would love to use tiles however they would make the viv too heavy if we have to pick it up. I am currently using paper towels as substrate. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

    Black crickets?

    Hi everyone. I usually get brown crickets for my beardie but I had to get black ones as we've had snow and the store didn't get their delivery. Will these be okay for her since they're the right size? I've read that they're not too different from the brown ones but others have said they're not...

    May run out of crickets?

    Hi. I had to buy more 3rd crickets today from a pet store as 2 out of the 3 boxes of crickets I had at home, were mostly all dead. The new crickets I bought are also mostly all dead and were the ones with the most living crickets in them at the store. I also bought a box of hoppers. I just went...

    Overfeeding? Worried about her becoming overweight.

    Hi everyone. I have a 6 month old beardie named Cleo. She has a huge appetite and she is handfed about 20-25 crickets each feeding, and I have just cut her down to 2 feedings a day instead of 3. And she also eats all of her salad, which is mostly spring greens. However, she would eat more if I...
