[QUOTE="Chris., post: 2029745, member: 118223"] Hello everyone. In july I adopted a bearded dragon, so he's been staying with me for almost two months now. He'll turn eleven months soon, is about 16" long and weights 300g. When I got him, he was about the same lenght as now but only 200g! Odly he doesen't seem to grow in lenght at all.... Because his poop was runny from time to time I had a fecal done and it came positive for pinworms. He was given panacur and will get the second (and last) dose on monday (10 days after the first). Anyway, what got me worried right now is that his beard doesn't seem to brighten up since I got him, like never once. It's not black necessary, more like greyisch. It gets bit brighter when I hold him but still a little grey. Also he did shed his tail and back legs like two weeks ago and the scales underneath look realy pale, almost like he would shed them again only he doesn't. The rest of the shed went smoothly, only it took for like two weeks. I wonder if maybe he has some sort of deficiency that hinders the shedding or something. He get's dubias and crickets five times a week, always dusted in minerals +D3 and twice a week with a multivitamin. I'll try to add some pics. Other than that he seems fine. He doesn't always eat his salads but he never refused a bug so far and he's pretty active most of the time with climbing and recently he started digging a little bit. He is my very first reptile and I would be very thankful for any tips on how to properly care for him. And because it seems to be always the first question on here, Basking spot is 100°F and warm side in the low to mid 90s. Cool side is hight 80s right now but only because the room is also. Germany is really cooking lately. UV-B is a Arcadia T5 12% mounted inside approx. 12 or 13" from the highest point. Tank is 150x80x80 cm.[ATTACH type="full"]83310[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]83311[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]83306[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]83307[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]83309[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
