    I welcome to you, Nutters aka SEXY, my baby beardie

    Awww your baby is So Cute I love the "Big-Head/All Tail" stage. They are so funny and precocious at that age. Speaking of funny sleeping positions. I got a shot of our kid, Raiden, doing the 'Jesus-big-arms' thing about a month after we got him. And yes, he was asleep! Just thought you (and...

    Thank you Thank you Her original story can be read here- viewtopic.php?t=37940 She's come a long way. And we couldn't imagine Not having her around. She's so funny, she watches everything I do in the kitchen (it might lead to food..lol) and we are so proud of her progress.

    check to see if i am doing it right

    Personally (or Dragonally) our kid who is about the same size, LOVES freshly shed Supers. They have much more nutrition/mass than mealies, and are easy to keep. Tho you do not refrigerate them. I just keep them in a tote of assorted grains (oatmeal wheatgerm, cornmeal, flaxseed, goldfish...

    Basking with mouth open

    Oh and something I don't think anyone else noticed... Your UV bulb is on the side of the tank shining through the glass? Sorry, but glass and/or plastic will block/absorb most if not all of the UV It looks like you have a screen top for your viv, so that makes it easy--just get one of those big...

    New girl !!

    WOO-HOO Her Fecal came back clean (stain and float!) So at least we aren't dealing with parasites/yeast on top of the RI and spongey bones. Raiden has had a couple of clean fecals from my home-grown crix colony, so I believe they are clean. And they are not allowed to frateranize with other...

    New to the world of dragons, grateful for any help

    New girl !!

    The results of the Vet Checkup: Girlie has a mild RI (on Baytril now) X-rays show she has healed breaks in several bones in legs and maybe a few ribs. Also has what Doc called "folding-fractures" in both front legs. :shock: The X-rays are going off to a specialist for more info. No sign of...

    New girl !!

    Thanks Diane- Truck= She was there because the boy's mother ran a day care and one of the babies came down with salmonela. And of course CDC blamed it on the lizard tha lived in the boys room. Where the day-care children never went... So she was ostracized. Gwydo and I were discussing it...

    New girl !!

    good idea I have been dusting EVERYTHING We use Rep-Cal, and I have a plain Cal as well. Seeings how she is "rampaging" a lot, I may just lightly dust the floor of the viv with cal, as she will just spill the bowl and make a mess herself anyway... LOL ;)

    Yeah! Now my husband has his OWN dragon. But she came from a not so good background... :cry: When I asked what she was used to eating, I got- "We feed her crickets and mealworms and occasionally give her a few bites of celery leaf.." And silly me :roll: I asked what supplements she has...

    Color Ideas??

    Thanks everyone for the compliments. We just adore 'her'- So much personality and a great little liz-kid! barti1- No idea on parents, I will admit that we got her from PetCo. But our local store doesn't seem to do too bad on care of the critters, all things considered. I don't like the...

    New Beardie Owner

    About the Black Circles, It is ok My baby does the same thing, it is apparently tied into their "darkening to absorb more warmth" ability. It is actually pretty funny our 'girl' (same appx age, so guessing here..) gets these nifty sorta hourglass looking patterns on her belly. I joke with my...
