    Scratching at face but not shedding

    Just noticed him doing this 3 times in the last 20 minutes alternating each side of his face. Best way to describe it is its like how a dog would scratch their face but he's been doing it very close to his eye. He's also a littke moody and has some black in his beard. Should I see if he does it...

    Abnormal urate/white hard mass in stool

    So he was given one dose of panacur suspension, I don't remember the exact cc but it didn't take up much room in the syringe. My vet was gonna give it 3-4 weeks before rechecking and trying again if needed. He gets a lot of his moisture from his diet and he gets soaks every 2-3 days unless...

    Abnormal urate/white hard mass in stool

    So Torrin was put on panacur suspension 10% for chronic pinworm issues. He had been eating fine, a little groggy but I figured that may have been brumation, but didn't use the bathroom for 6 days, which is not normal for him. Today (day 7) after his 3rd hot water soak he went. When he did he...

    Custom build questions

    I'm working on making my first custom. I've done a fair amount of research but still have some material concerns before I begin. For wood, depending on price, I was going to use melamine or smooth plywood. I was gonna use wire mesh for part of the enclosure top and plexi glass or some sort of...

    Puffing his beard and open mouth grunting?

    It's been 3 hours since I fed him so I dont think he's choking. He had his beard fully puffed and his mouth open making a low grunt. Went on for 10 minutes roughly. He's looking a little more comfortable but his beard is still puffed and it had me worried. I've never seen him do anything like...

    What sort of clay is beardie safe if any?

    I was kinda worried about the humidity too, but he gets so stressed out with baths that I wasn't sure if even a dish with a bubbler in it would be worth a try

    What sort of clay is beardie safe if any?

    I know foam is a better material, but a foamsmith I'm not. Quite frankly I find the thought of working with expanding foam terrifying and intimidating. I'm trying to build a waterfall and a basking hill with embedded rocks and I would know how to make it with clay, but last thing I want is...

    Tries to bite when reaching into his cage

    I've been giving him plenty of run time every day, he gets a minimum of 2 hours and most days I can't get him to sit still when he's out. I've also been doing the food, but not everyone in the house has been so that's my biggest battle. But yea once he's out he's usually fine unless he sees the dog

    Tries to bite when reaching into his cage

    Its been getting worse the last couple weeks. Today he's attacking out of the cage too. Is there anything that can help or do they just need to run their course? Also would this be a good indication to him being male? He hasn't started presenting, I've just been referring to him as a him

    Tries to bite when reaching into his cage

    So my little guy is 6 months. Since we moved back home I've noticed a lot of behavioral changes that have me very worried, all involving biting. Nothing about his set up has changed aside from it being except for an address change. He hasn't been showing any signs of stress. He's become what...

    Beardie attacked part 2

    So first time this happened (about a month ago) it was just decided either he was getting too curious or it might have been because I was wearing glasses. But the same situation just happened again: I was laying on my bed with Torrin, he was roaming around and then hopped up on my chest like he...

    Hasn't pooped, may be straining?

    I did go a few days without squash and it didn't help. I ended up taking him to the vet today because he just wasn't looking himself and he did have an abnormally large amount of Coccidia in his sample, so the vet gave me some dewormer and hopefully in a week he'll be back to his normal self. I...

    Hasn't pooped, may be straining?

    Cooper- is there anything else food wise I should avoid ike squash? Or should I just let him go with his crickets? King- I was actually worried I was messing him up with his feeding schedule. I used to get home a lot later because of the bus, so he'd get fed later at night. But I moved to a...

    Hasn't pooped, may be straining?

    Update: he just went after his second soaking and it was very undigested. Like there was something that looked like a small cricket leg in there and I could tell what was squash and what was dandelion greens. Will that happen if you feed too many greens or is that more a sign of worms?

    Hasn't pooped, may be straining?

    Ok, I'll give that a try tonight with another warm soak. He produced some urea crystals, so maybe that's a start? How long would you say is normal at his age? I tried looking around online and it seems like everyone has a different timeline. Some people said if they hadn't by three days it was...

    Hasn't pooped, may be straining?

    He's 4, almost 5 months old. Usually he poops every day, very rarely every other day. Its been 3 days so as a new mom I'm kinda worried. I'm also not sure if he just tried to strain or not, he had his legs really close with his tail up and head up. He's had a nice long, warm soak, since...

    Worrying behavior

    I looked into stargazing and its a different sort of head movement. He also isn't arching his back like I've seen stargazing beardies do. Its hard to tell what he's looking at to be honest. To me it looked like he was staring at the ceiling with that one eye but its possible he could be been...
