    Very aggressive juvenile

    So I've bred about 150 beardies, and late last year I hatched a very problematic individual who's getting progressively worse. Despite zero behavioral problems with any of his brothers or sisters and zero variation in husbandry, this boy who came out has evolved into quite the little monster. At...

    Hello all, So I'm in need of some urgent help. I have a 1 year old dragon and something's quite wrong with her. I went to check on her about 20 minutes ago, only to find her lying flat in her cage and having periodic twitching/spasms which are accompanied by her lifting her head up and...

    A trick I learned to make vegetable eating easier

    I'm sure we've all witnessed our beardies repeatedly trying to get a piece of squash, carrot, or apple in their mouth with little success. Maybe they'll get a couple pieces in, but ultimately it seems like they end up eating less of the good stuff in a sitting because it's too difficult. Enter...

    Is tail rot contagious?

    So I have multiple bearded dragons, and unfortunately, I just discovered a few of them have tail rot. Just wondering if this is contagious, as I want to know if I need to implement aggressive disinfecting and isolation protocols if so. Can anyone help? Thanks.

    Significant Lethargy after laying infertile clutch

    Hello everyone, My sweet 4 year old dragon Mosey just laid an infertile clutch of eggs a couple weeks ago. Since then however, she barely moves, sleeps all day, and has no interest in normal food. It's almost like she's brumating, but because it's June and she literally turned from an alert and...

    Pacing the ladies

    So I'm in my second year of breeding, and my experience is still limited. I only had one successful pairing last year (tried for two, but my second female had already ovulated by the time I paired her with my male). Anyways, it's been almost exactly a year since my girl who went last year was...

    Too early in season to breed?

    It's late January, and both my male and female who I'm planning on pairing this year have woken up from their respective brumations. (Male fell asleep in early December and reappeared around New Year's. Female went out in mid November and has been up for about a week). Both are hungry, alert...

    Enclosures Overheating

    Hello all, So I recently invested a decent chunk of cash into nine 4x2x2 PVC enclosures for my dragons from reptilekages.com. Each has two vents on the sides and back, and there are two light fixtures in each enclosure (one over the center for UVB, and another on the side for basking). I have...

    Have made mistakes on first clutch. Should I stay hopeful?

    My mistakes -I oversatuated my vermiculate. Many of my eggs sat in a bit of a puddle for an extended amount of time. Can they absorb water? -I transferred them to a different container a few weeks ago. No eggs were turned over, but I fear that I may have overhandled them. -They've been...

    Selective Mating?

    Quick question from a breeding newbie So I have three girls and one boy that I've designated for breeding. The girls are various colors and morphs, but the male is my "money" dragon, as he's a hypo citrus purple paradox. Naturally, I want him to breed with all three. However, he's only going...

    Messy Mating Session

    Hello. I'm new to the breeding world, but I'm somewhat perplexed by what just went down in the giant plastic tub I purchased for such ventures. Once I placed my male in with my female, he immediately mounted, and was seemingly in positio and thrusting within five seconds. He jumped around a...

    Normal Anatomy or Something Else?

    Hello all, Okay so I'm unsure of something inside of my girl Mosey's torso. A few weeks ago I was giving her a bath and was gently stroking her underside when I came across a round mass around her lower chest/upper abdomen region. It's feels like a large and slightly unripe blueberry, and...

    Infertile Gravidity or Something Else?

    Hello All, So I have a question regarding my 2 year old Mosey. Just yesterday during bath time, I noticed an internal spherical lump on the right side of her abdomen between the fat pad and her chest area. There's possibly one other on her other side, but I'm unsure. I've never felt this...

    Bearded Dragon utterly refuses water and vegetation

    Hello, New member here. I'm somewhat concerned about my young adult bearded dragon who I purchased a week ago. He readily eats bugs, but won't touch fruits or vegetables. I've tried all the tricks. If I put bugs in the vegetables, he waits for them to crawl out enough so he can eat exclusively...
