i got my new baby as a x mas present and she is 5 months old. I have only had her for a month.the other day i had taken her to the vet cuz i was worried, and apparently she has a uri.. they weighed her and she weighed 65 grams. I asked the dr if this weight is normal for her age ? she said it was.. im confused, i see so many stories here that there dragons weighing over 100+ grams..... if thats the case is my vet telling me the truth or not???, btw she only weighed 39 grams a month ago when he had her.

She seems a bit light for her age - how long is she? I don't think the vet "lied," but vets who don't specialize in reptiles sometimes don't really know. Also, what did the vet do for the URI? Maybe you can go over your set up for us, so we can see if you need to adjust something to help her grow.

I hope you feel better! Make sure her basking spot is 6-8 inches from the Reptisun - that is a pretty tall tank for a beardie.

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!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
