Hello! I first noticed Mushu closing his eye a lot for the past week and thought nothing of it, he usually does this to be in his own space, and then is fine. However, today when I fed him it looked like a struggle to open his eye, and he has no desire to even try opening it. I think something...

I would just offer your beardie a salad every day, it doesn't necessarily mean they'll eat it but it would get them used to it. For a 5 month old, I wouldn't say feed it much maybe just a couple greens with some other colorful ones! Also for the younger ones, since their diet mainly is bugs...

So true!! You gotta be more stubborn than your beardie! I also did this method for him to eat his salad. Works like a charm!! :D

{Disclaimer: I know everyone has differing opinions and if you do not agree with me that's great, but please keep the comments respectful. Thanks!} This is Mushu. He doesn't like to eat veggies. He is a big baby when it comes to this. He is stubborn. I'm sure your beardie is just like this...

Thank you both so much! I am in no way looking for a way to re-home him I love him to death, just want him to live a long happy life, including when I am not going to be able to be with him. Thank you for your suggestions! I think I am going to try the approach of not force-feeding for now and...

Okay, I am a little nervous though. for one I really don't want him to hate me, two he is very very very difficult to force-feed! not even exaggerating and three I am leaving the country in a couple of weeks for 10 days, and I have a friend will be caring for him but I can't expect her to...

hello all! Mushu is 1 1/2 year old male beardie and he is my life! He recently came out of brumation maybe a week or so ago and at first, he showed signs of respiratory infection, so I took him to the vet. She didn't see infection and she didn't know why he wasn't eating she has him on some...

Hello! Mushu my, 1 1/2 year old beardie, recently went into brumation! He did it last year, I took him to the vet before he did last year and everything went fine! But this year he came out and he started wheezing/coughing. I found him coughing up mucus and have been researching non stop as this...

I have to admit I was terrified the first time I got them as well. After you clean their cage and get used to feeding them the fear went away completely for me! Just think ... they are harmless and cannot hurt you. It just may feel a bit creepy if they crawl on you.

Hello! Yes, those are clogged femoral pores. This could have happened due to lack of proper husbandry or not having enough rough items in the enclosure so that he can properly rub them off. If they are clogged ( which yours definitely looks clogged ) soak him in a warm bath for 10-15 minutes...

His body weight has stayed at 375 and he was 385 when he went into brumation. He poops sometimes irregularly sometimes missing days. I give him fluids and he is hydrated. His heat bulb is brand new! and his UVB is maybe 2 months old as I turned it off during his brumation so I didn't waste its...

My bearded dragon Mushu just woke up from brumation about 1 month ago. And he still isn’t eating properly. I can tell he’s hungry but he just acts lazy to get it. I really have to try and try to get him to eat... and even then he runs away trying to crawl on his rocks. I don’t know how much...

He will have spurts of energy such as running around his tank glass surfing and overall just restlessness, once I take him out he calms down for a bit then repeats his running around.

I recently made a post about this: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=248031. However, I said that Mushu went back to sleep after not eating. He is very much awake and still not eating properly after about a month I'd say. He'll eat some here and there but rarely can I actually get him to eat! He looks as if...

What did you replace it with? as this is is basking spot so just trying find a good one.

So I have this magnetic rock ledge that is made of foam and Mushu loves to poop all over it! It's not sanitary at all however I clean it the best I can using vinegar and scrubbing the poop off of the ledge. I don't know how to clean it, as it is such a pain, but I love how it looks in his cage...

Here's an update for everyone. Turns out Mushu was not doing brumating. I put him back and he has not woken up since. So I guess he just wasn't finished yet! Bummer!

Yes, I gave him water through a syringe and he even drank tons himself!
