So i minced up a hornworm for my little beardie and i noticed that on the small plate i use to prepare food for my little one, that the worm juice was turning BLACK. WHAT on gods green earth caused that? Is that normal? It was concerning because it was only AFTER my Brian ate the worm did i notice the black pigment begin to appear. Could this hurt Brian? He seems perfectly fine...

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
