[QUOTE="SHBailey, post: 1850929, member: 89387"] Congratulations for and welcome to the new addition to your family. :blob5: Oreo sounds like a good name for her with the colors you describe, and it sounds like you're doing the right thing by letting her settle in to her new environment before you start handling her. I like roaches better than crickets too, but we get both kinds for Puff because that's about all we can get for him on a regular basis here, and I figure that he needs at least a little variety, especially since we swore off superworms. The best thing about them is that they're way easier to catch if they get away, just as long as you can keep track of them. They're pretty sneaky about crawling up my arm or underneath Puff if he misses them, and he's a lousy shot with his tongue, so after we feed him I have to make sure that he doesn't have anybody crawling around on his underbelly. The other advantage is that roaches don't make as much of a mess, don't smell as bad if they do, and don't die off as easily -- heck, the only disadvantage is that they're more expensive than crickets. Better nutrition for the beardie too, as I understand, with a higher nutrient-to-chitin ratio. About the only amphibian we have here in Alaska is a little wood frog -- they have some kind of an amazing way of surviving the winters -- I think they have antifreeze in their blood or some such. :? I don't think our temperatures have gotten past the low 50's yet this year. If it gets as warm as 75, I'll be thinking about taking Puff outside for a little natural sunlight, but he'll probably turn all black and want to go back inside and worship his light bulbs instead. There are so few days that get that warm around here, plus his human slave (that's me) isn't always up to going outside even when it is warm enough :oops: -- he's just not used to it. I think it frightens him because it's just all too strange to him. Some people would probably call me crazy for having a bearded dragon in Alaska, but I'm not the only one -- There are a number of people who have beardies around here, as well as snakes and turtles and other reptiles. Well, at least 2/3rds of your beardies seem to be adjusting well to the change, and hopefully Broly will come around. At least he's still eating and basking, so he'll probably be ok sooner or later. :) [/QUOTE]
