Hi, my name is Rafael and I have three baby beardies there about a month and a half now and there in a 20 gallon now my male his name is gozzy just finished shedding, exept on his eyes and a little on his tail now he's shaking his head and cant walk properly and falls off whatever he climbs this morning he was ok and yesterday he was okay but i dont know what seems to be the problem. does anybody know whats happening?
First things first, you need to separate your dragons IMMEDIATELY. Keeping dragons together can cause them to fight, get extremely stressed out, stop eating, get bullied, and possibly get killed or severely injured. It will be more expensive, but it NEEDS to happen.
Secondly, can you tell me what you have in your tank? What kind of lights, substrate (flooring), and tank accessories do you have? Just do your best to describe everything you have.
Yea i was thinking of seperating them. I have a basking bulb 100watt a coil uvb 10.0 bulb my flooring is paper towel. He seems better now i dusted some crickets for him with calcium d3 and a few hours later he started to walk normal and he wasent shaking his head no more
Yes, we all suggest that you try to get them separated, especially if you have 2 males, or if they are siblings.
The compact/coil light is not a good light, it doesn't emit the proper wavelength of UVB for good exposure. They will have trouble with their calcium absorption since they are young & growing.
