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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

My guy is 4 months, he's eating, pooping, and still a ball of energy. However he did this weird thing with his head when I was feeding him dinner a couple days and he just did it again. All of a sudden he'll start turning his head looking straight up with one eye, and keeps turning until it...

I'm trying so hard to branch out Torrin's diet, but he keeps turning his nose up at it. Strawberries, sweet potato, yellow squash, cantaloupe, broccoli, brussel sprouts, snap peas, mustard greens, blueberries, carrot, raspberries, all nothing. I might get him to take a bite or two but then...

My guy is 4 months old, big sweetheart and a bit too curious at times. He's nipped me at times when I was handfeeding him, but I wouldn't call them a bite. At my old apartment I would take him out a little before bed or on nights when after the lights went out he was restless and he'd pass out...

I apologize, couldn't really think of a better name. I want to start out saying he's 4 months, still eating. There have been some changes in the way he eats, he won't eat as much in the way of plants for me in the mornings or at night as he used to, but he eats up everything I leave in his dish...

So my guy keeps deficating on his log, and I'm worried with all the bark nooks and crannies it won't get fully clean. Now if it was a rock I'd put it in some boiling water for a long disinfecting soak, but because its wood I'm worried that'll destroy it. Any advice for cleaning? I want to try...

Ok so I just bought crickets a days ago and a heat wave it yesterday. Today when I went to feed I noticed only one cricket came out. I opened the lid and there were all these little white worms everywhere! I tried to snag the cricket but he had it eaten in no time and now I'm really worried. Is...

So I want to have my little guy swim around in the tub in my apartment, the sink in my kitchen is just too shallow and he constantly tries to jump out. I scrubbed out my tub and cleaned it better than what it was when I moved in and rinsed that sucker as well as I could with hot water. However...

So I've had my little guy for less than a month now, he's just about to turn 4 months. He's been all together warming up well, last night he even fell asleep in my lap, but I have noticed some other behavioral changes. Last night my finger was kinda closed to his belly and he nipped at me. Not a...

I'm a new mom to a 3month old named Torrin. I've had him about 2 weeks now and he was warming up really quick to me. He's very active and alert, a good little guy. However we had to move a couple days ago. Since then his personality has 180'd. He's very jumpy, avoiding my hands, and earlier...
