Congrats on getting the new tank. That alone should allow you so see some improvement.
If you are looking for roaches, check te for sale section on this forum and you will find many great deals. Sometimes people wind up with more than they need and will sell some off at a really great price
I would also try giving the dragons hot baths since mealworns are being fed. IME mealworms can be hard for younger dragons to digest and the warm baths can really help hydrate and warm up those enzymes to speed up and aid in the digestion of the bugs.
If you are using the powersun right now, than you don't need the calcium with D3.. just when you get your reptisun 10.0 you will need the D3. Do you have a checking or savings account?
www.beardeddragon.co you can buy the roaches, and the light fixture for the reptisun and they accept paypal, which can go right through your checking or savings account.
I'm sorry you are having such a hard time and we all wish you the best. Right now they are too small for superworms. Supers aren't recommended until about 4 months of age, and then those would be the small ones...
If I had a bigger roach colony right now, I would gladly send you some at just the charge of shipping.. But beardeddragon.co has them pretty cheap for 200 of them...
Let me know if I can be of any help.. I really want your babies to do good. I would also think about getting some critical care and a syringe to syringe feed them.
Can you post some pictures of them so we can see them? I wish I lived closer so I could help you..
Yeah, I agree that ordering feeders online would be a LOT cheaper. Are you getting your feeders from Petco? I used to buy mini mealworms there, which are a different species than normal mealworms. The minis are much smaller, and they have a softer shell. I fed my baby dragon those with out a problem.
If you have another tank, than go ahead and seperate them. If you don't have a 2nd UVB light, take one outside for 30 minutes or so every day until you get your ReptiSun.
People occasionally sell dubias and other bugs on craigslist. And have you looked into green dot, or prepaid visa cards? You basically by them at 7-11 and other places and can use them online.
I am tryin and live in illinois and the second tank is glass and seperated today. I been feeding waxworms that i got last night and yes petsmart. I really am tryin to buy feeders its hard but am doing my best fedding also mealworms i bath them everyday. I am figureing out stuff while i go. But will honestly give them the best life i can. That is my mission i bring them outside while swimming like today. Dont think i am tryin to fail them cause there on my mind every day i get up same as my goldens dogs feeding .
Hey fella there isnt a petsmart around alittle over 100 miles away in new lenox. Theres a petco about 50 miles away a good 45 minute drive and searched online and cant find any near pet shops one but it sells ferret and dog stuff mostly. When i get my pc working am goin to try a rush or green dot card for online purpose. Kinda blows but i no i will save alot of money by doing it online. I just need to find right prices for reptiworms, silkworms, pheonixworms cause am a fed reptiworms cause crickets are a pain. I lose half of them in my home and get by the water heater and make noises all nite hate em. what about silkworms Are they a staple or heard they cost alot. But have something very good for beardies silkworms and forgot the word it is.
Where did you get your dragons from that they sent you 2 instead of just the one you ordered? That is so odd and I would be a little ticked off because dragons take a lot of work..and money in order to get the right set up. Still would like to see some pictures..

I won a 200 dollar visa card and bought a red phase dragon from bigappleherp. Am not to worried i can afford them but was ready for one not two that Was a big eye opener for me. Right now i separated them but one doesnt have correct heating and no uvb yet. Am getting there just need my little troopers to give me two more weeks. Then there complete and just need to find great priced staples online.

:headbang: sweet! Are you able to take them outside for natural uvb while waiting for the uvb bulb? heating wouldn't be too hard if you have a extra lamp you can fix upside down in the tank for abit lol may looks silly but could do the job.
Yea only when my brother brings them when he comes over fella from up north. I guess i will be bettered detailed next time. I can next when the sky isnt so cloudy like today i always put my iguana outside lol so he can keep his skin outside lol he sheds alot. But my tiny beardies are just a pain so quick and for some reason want me to drop them cause they do not want to be handled. I almost dropped porky yesterday but thank god for a tank that is easy to open with openings on the front then from the top.
I was looking at bigapple also at one time for my dragon when I was going to buy my baby. Are they nice looking? Still can't believe they sent you 2 instead of the 1 you ordered...
