What kind of substrate do you have there for N'tho? It looks rather nice.

 

[NthosMommy]

Hi Reptar!! Thank you!! =)

Hi Atrax!!!
I have reptile carpet, and it is so easy to clean.
I bought 2 green rectangle carpet pieces and a roll of tan carpet, so I can easily switch them out. =)

Hope everyone is doing great!!

New updated photos of N'tho!! =)

He is 8.5" long.

It seems that they don't sell Reptile Carpet here in my country. I've been searching for it everywhere. And beardie hammock too, can't seem to find it anywhere. I would love to have one for my lil' buddy Ziggy. I guess I'll have to make my own.
Awesome pics, he's getting bigger

N'tho is looking great I'm lovin' the sexy leg pictures he gave you !!! Glad he's doing well !!

 

[NthosMommy]

Well, I took N'tho to his first vet visit(last Friday) and fecal screening. He weighs 36g and is 9.25 in long. I think he is older than what my age scale says, so I will be changing that. Today I got a call from the vet and N'tho has been prescribed Panacur. They would not say what it is for, but after reading the posts for the meds, :study: I believe it is for pinworms. He will be given the first dose, by the vet tomorrow and then 15 days later, the 2nd(last) dose will be given. If there are any advice for me, I would greatly appreciate what to expect from N'tho when he's on this medication. :?:
Thank you!! =)

I'm glad you were able to get N'tho to the vet and get a fecal done. Pinworms are really common (if that is what he found). Panacur would be prescribed most likely for pinworms. The vet should tell you what N'tho has though. Hopefully they will tell you tomorrow (whoever called may not have known.. ? )when you go in for your meds. But that is important for you to know. He should be getting a very tiny tiny amount of the medicine depending on if it is full strength or if it is diluted.
Most likely N'tho won't have any side effects from the meds, but he may not eat quite as well for a couple days around getting the meds or possibly may have some looser stools. Just make sure he gets soaked daily for a couple day after the meds if he's not already getting that.
I'm glad he's growing and eating! he's getting big
Good luck with the meds and hopefully you won't notice any difference in him. Have a great night !!

Need to catch up on here. I am wondering about N'tho's age again. I thought he would be 4 months old, but he's 13" long and some told me he may be near 6 months. He's got a fat belly on him too and I am afraid of him bursting his gut after eating. I feed him 25-30 medium Phoenix worms for breakfast(9:30am). Greens(Spring Mix w/o spinach leaves, mustard & collard greens) with butternut squash(3 changes a day). 15-20 various sized crickets(2x) for lunch(2pm) and dinner(6:30pm). So that would be 30 worms and 40 crickets total each day. He does act like he wants more....but I fear him getting too full and throwing up. It hasn't gotten to that point of him puking, I just want to avoid that. If I need to add 5 more crickets per feeding, I can. The crickets range from 1/2" to 1"....maybe 1 1/4". I fear of him choking, so I really make sure to keep the size down. I dust the crickets with Miner-All vitamin w/ calcium w/o D3.
He's done with his 2nd dose of Panacur....so hope his pinworm issue is over. He's puffing out his beard and looks like he's going to burp, but doesn't burp. New things every month and hope I don't get too paranoid. :shock:
Here's a few updated photos. =) Hope everyone had a wonder Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Very cute pictures Age can be really hard to determine based on size and weight because all the dragons grow differently due to both environment and genetics. Dragons from the same clutch all kept in the same environment will be different sizes.. . So unfortunately unless you have an actual hatch date, it really is your best guess !
I've seen lots of beardies that do that puff out the beard type thing that you are describing. Stitch does it a fair amount. I'm not entirely sure what it means, but I don't think it's anything uncommon or a problem.
