I will start letting Norbert out more. I can't stack the tanks (big 40 gallons, waaaay too heavy). Neville is sort of solving my problem for me just a little bit... he's buried himself. It's what they do. -shrug-

Berber didn't even notice- he's ten. Too old for that nonsense. So, how should I handle it? Will Norbert get overstressed by bearding? Can I just leave him uncovered? It was fully black. Kinda scary. Is it dangerous for him? Blood pressure or whatever?

So, I just moved my new Berber skink, Neville, into the living room into a more appropriately-sized tank, and my python, Nagini, into his smaller tank, which is better for both of them. Norbert, my beardie, however, can see Neville from across the room. He blackbeards, nods vigorously, and claws...

He's been totally fine. I guess you're right. Probably doing an impression of a horny toad lol.

Sorry for the dirty glass and poor lighting. The beard has also lightened significantly.

Hello, all! I just noticed this evening that Norbert has a black beard, but is not puffing it up. Nothing's happened to upset him, temperature is good, he seemed to lean forward as he always does when I come near, as if to say, "Pick me up! Pick me up!" He's been fed, isn't shedding, all that...

I live in an apartment- breeding roaches or any other type of feeder isn't really an option, or I'd already be doing it :( I'm fairly sure he's a Minor. His head looks the same. Maybe not, IDK.

Hello, all! I have a male Norwegian Ridgeback- I mean, Western Minor, named Norbert. He's roughly a foot long, plus another inch or two perhaps. I currently feed him large crickets from PetSmart (10 cents apiece with my employee discount). I need to know if there is a cheaper way, because I...

So is Nature's Miracle. Granted, it's for fluffy pets, but it is designed for feces and urine.

I'll have to look into that, then. I just remembered, I have another pet-safe cleaner on-hand. What about a little Nature's Miracle?

Hello, all! There is a TL;DR at the very end. I recently changed Norbert from a carpet substrate to a tile substrate, and all I can say is... Wow. Just wow. SO much easier to clean. I just scrape it off and done... Or is it? Obviously, my teensy cutesy broom and dustpan are not magical or...

It's non-toxic to the "normal" pets- I didn't know if anyone knew for beardies.

Hello, all! I have recently been introduced to the Tillandsia category of plants, AKA air plants. For those unfamiliar, these are low-water plants that do not require soil to grow. Google for more info. I was wondering if it would be safe to have in/on top of Norbert's house, and if they'd be...

Thank you. I saw a nice one at another PetSmart store that mine doesn't carry. I'll be able to pick it up on Sunday.

Hello, all! I recently realized that I never put a proper hide in Norbert's house. He can go under things to get shade, but nothing to hide inside. Not stressed, but does he need one?

That's actually a really cute idea... I'll see if I can get one of those at Bed, Bath & Beyond or something. Thanks!

Hello, all! I'm looking for a decent, high-output vivarium humidifier. No, this isn't for my beardie- it's for my hermit crabs. Sometimes, spritzing just isn't enough during the day. I figured I would ask here since there are no good active crabber forums, and I figure someone here has a pet...
