    Been home from work for the past 2 months. Finally got the all clear and can walk again without crutches or cane so I got to go back to work. One problem....I forgot to get the approval of Her Royal Highness Miss Biggs. Who promptly after 2 days of work has given me the cold shoulder and some...

    Can’t tell me reptiles don’t have feelings

    I had to have surgery on my hip on Nov. 15. I somehow tore the labrum and needed it to be repaired and have some bone shaved off. I wasn’t too happy about the long recovery but now I think I am enjoying myself a little too much. Anyway my spoiled girl has been so much my constant companion. She...

    I have a few questions on keeping silkworms. Through suggestion I purchased a cup of silkworms for Her Royalness Miss Biggs ( my husband nicknamed her that cause she gets special treatment from everyone in the family especially by me) and she loved them. They were expensive to ship the 25 count...

    On vacation and I miss my Biggs

    I’m on vacation and I miss my Biggs. She is being well taken care of by my son, and he sends me pics of her. But when I get back I will have been gone for 12 days. I hope she remembers me and still likes me. Anyone ever have to leave their Beardie for a few weeks? Any advice for when I do get...

    Total Diva

    Bought Biggs in to work. (Schools out so only a handful of people) the school nurse decided to make Miss Biggs her very own Secretary work outfit. Although Biggs looks more like a diva to me. No worries she was only at work for a little while before I bought her back home and only one principal...

    Butter worms

    I have been looking to expand what I offer to feed Biggs on a regular basis. Mostly because she decided she has had enough Dubia and refuses to eat them. Seems like she loves the super worms and I recently ordered and receive Butter Worms and Nutri Grubs, and Horn worms. I am not sure about...

    Not eating, sleeping a lot

    Since taking my baby to the vet she hasn’t been the same. She is about 6 months old, 17.25 inches and 339 grams. Usually she eats like a demon and now it’s a struggle to get her to eat 3-4 roaches a day when she was eating 40-50 per day. Her temps are all good, she pooped, but still doesn’t show...

    First vet visit!

    First I apaologize if this is a little bit long. But most importantly I want to thank everyone for all of your help. I took Biggie Smalls to his first healthy lizard check up (reptile vet :D ) and the first thing the vet did was go over all the paperwork I had to fill out on my husbandry! Her...

    New Behavior....head butts everything in his path

    What is he doing? Biggie is about 6-7 months now and has been pretty scared of roaming and exploring, he just started exploring a little more each day this past week and I’m very happy he is getting so brave (although if someone he doesn’t know holds him or he gets scared he still runs to...

    2 months of learning with Biggie Smalls

    Well I have been owned by Biggie Smalls (aka Biggs) for 2 months now. I am learning lots about being a slave to him and also lots about myself. I worry constantly ( which I believe is his ulterior motive) and laugh at both of our antics while getting to know each other. Just wanted to share some...

    Just measured and weighed

    What do you do on a snow day? I spoiled Biggie Smalls with lots of cuddles and decided to weigh and measure him ( wish I did this when I first bought him home a month ago) he is 13 inches long and weighs 113grams. Not sure how old he is. Pet store said about 3-4 months which would make him 4-5...

    Separate feeding area

    Just wondering on what the opinion is on a separate feeding tank. I currently feed my baby in his 40 gallon tank. He is approximately 11-12 inches and I feed him 20 crickets twice a day along with his salad of greens and veggies/fruits. I have been told that its better to feed him his live food...

    Newly owned by a Bearded Dragon

    Hi I am the newly owned human of a Bearded Dragon. I say he owns me because I had no intentions and have never owned any type of lizard until 1 week ago when I went with my son to the local chain pet store to buy frozen mice for his snakes. And I always look at the lizards and laugh at them...
