    temporary heat solution?

    At home we can expect a couple of power cuts a year, usually in winter. When there is no available power source what would you use to keep them warm for a few hours, up to a day (our last power cut lasted a full 24 hours). Last year we used a hot water bottle under a towel and placed Finn on the...

    Is this beardie underweight?

    I'm looking after my friend's friendly beardie for a couple of weeks while she's on holiday. Only comparing to mine, he seems a bit on the skinny side. He's just over a year old. I've heard that a bath can hydrate and plump the skin a little but it's the second day so I'll let him settle before...

    Does anyone use pre-cooked insects?

    I'm specifically talking about the sort you get in a tin like the herp diner stuff/ can-o-crickets etc. Want to get something like this as a treat for Finn to jazz up his diet, not to replace livefood or be a main food source so I'm wondering if an opened tin will last in the fridge or if it...

    Entertainment for inside the viv

    Hi there, we are going on holiday for nearly two weeks and have arranged a house sitter to take care of our animals including all the lighting and food etc. But our beardie loves to be out of his viv, we handle him nearly every day so I'm worried he'll get bored or stressed being stuck inside...

    Bought too many calci worms (phoenix)

    I accidentally ordered a thousand calci worms instead of a hundred :) I know they last a long time supposedly without any additional supplement in their composty stuff, but there is no way Finn can get through a thousand in a few weeks! How can I keep the worms alive and what can I feed them...

    Size of vivarium

    Finn is still a baby, at 26g. He's in a viv which is 112cm long, 37cm deep and 40cm tall. My question is will I need to get a bigger one when he's a juvenile or will this last him through the juvenile stage if I get a bigger one when he's fully grown? In imperial size it's roughly 3ft long and...

    DON'T USE SAND

    I've put this in the health section rather than viv as the symptoms of sand ingestion are more likely to lead someone to this section. Bit long-winded but please read if you are considering using sand or anyone has recommended it to you, or if your beardy has no energy no appetite and no poos...

    Baby NOT EATING AT ALL

    I posted last week about a loss of appetite but taking into consideration that he was shedding and the upheaval of a new home, I wasn't too concerned. Now Finn is around 9 weeks old and finished his shedding. For the last three days all I could get him to eat is a couple of crickets and a...

    Baby beardie loss of appetite

    Hi We got Finn last week and he is now 8 weeks old. I heard he could have a loss of appetite while he gets used to a new home but I'm concerned he isn't eating as much as he should be. The last few days he's only eaten 3-5 crickets three times a day. Also no greens or fruit whatsoever, we tried...
