so you make him/her swim and it stimulates the poop prosses and its a good way to get some exersize in to, just wait 5 min after u make them seim and they will poop! it is also good to have a fishtank thermometer in the tub with him so u know what the temps are at all times to.
since ive been doing this my guy hasnt pooped in his home for way over a month!!
that used to be me puking cause he pooped in his home then ran through it so now im mad heheh but not anymore!!
I recently discovered this too!! Heli had trouble getting backed up for months. Despite giving him water and hand feeding him baby foods. The vet said he needed to be on a big boy diet of veggies (he has real issues with that) and a lot of excercise and it should fix it. I finally got him to excercise and its made all the diff. When he doesnt go in the tub? All I have to do is encourage him swimming. Wish I had figured that out many months ago.
mine i got him from the petstore (local not petsmart but they still have bad info..) so i dont know what kind he is but hes about 10 months now and the last time i mesured and weighed him was dec 17 he was 17 inches and weighed 496g or 17.5oz. i would like to know what kind he is but really hes my jubjub hehe... thanks for replying and can i see a pic of yours?
Mine is SO frustrating because I swear he looks like different colors in diff light around the house. Videos are bad, for some reason they really dull his colors badly. Hes a red (But not a striking bright one). I'll try to do pics and put them here. Yours is big! Lucky you.
One of my fav things about Helius is his head. Its triangular and really wide like Night Fury and huge spikes.
He's a total clown. He's even fallen asleep with his tongue sticking out. Here he is at about 10 months old.
This is him at only 7 months old. This is an accurate pic of him when hes dark outside.
These are his colors in a bath. He has lavender. Weird.
His normal color is a dull reddish. So in between these two is his true color. Very dull.
But this ... this is when he looks his best! These awesome red/orange comes out when he is absolutely at his happiest and most relaxed. I wish he was this color all of the time
He is an absolute beast. He is 1 1/2 now. I guess he wont grow anymore. He is 20 inches long. And he weights over 600 grams. Since he has a terrible diet in that he refuses veggies, I have to watch his weight. When he gets big, he wont move and walk around. When he wont move, he wont poop and we get into trouble. The speed racer video was taken when he was at his optimum weight. What he needs to keep it at because as you saw, thats when he acts the most normal and fun.
hehe dont worry bout jackin the thread your bassically bumping it for me and all the replys will make more people look at it!! so thanks and its nice to talk about our dragons with other dragon lovers... my guy is named jubjub from the simpsions patty and selma have a lizard named jubjub so it was either that or king koopa but my son didnt like that name so jubjub it is...
ive only had mine since september but i cant wait to bring him outside cause i got a lizard leash from this site also so in spring/summer there will be vids and pics of him romping around outside!!
also my guy is a picky green eater but he will always finish his endives off, he also has started eating escarole!!
heres some more pics..
