    Beardie scared of me

    This is Kepler - going from what the pet store told me, he's about 5 months old (maybe 10-11" long). I did a ton of research before purchasing Kepler. I wanted to avoid as many rookie mistakes as possible. I feed him twice a day: romaine lettuce, carrot/bell pepper, mealworms (x5) - I let him...

    When can I take my beardie out?

    Hello! I just got my beardie, Toto, yesterday. I was wondering how long I should wait before I start holding him. He already knows me, since I’m his neighbour and I baby sat him for a couple weeks. So how long should I wait before holding him?

    Third day since I've taken new beardie home, and (probably?) hasn't eaten. Any way to encourage bug consumption?

    My five and a half month old beardie has been with me for about 2 and a half days now. I know that part of relocation stress is a lack of appetite, but I was wondering if there's any way to help get him to eat? I think he's been drinking water, since there's consistently been sand in his water...

    URI in baby beardie?

    Hello! Yesterday I got a beardie that I've estimated to be around 5 months old. Every once in awhile, she'll make these clicking noises, which I know are usually possible signs of an URI, though she's not showing any other symptoms and seems to be doing perfectly fine otherwise. No saliva, no...
