    Spoiled dragon?

    I agree with canicke. Hand-feeding might seem cute at first, but it's a bad thing. One thing to add: dragons can also get spoiled on certain types of insects. Worms and crickets come to mind. The good news is your dragon will come around either way; they don't get so spoiled that they will...

    Beardie not interested in food

    75 gallons can be a big, tall tank. How far away is the UVB from his basking spot? And is it inside or outside the tank?

    Poor Dexter!

    Apologies if we've talked about this long ago, but have you thought about cutting her veggies into worm shapes (looks more like a French fry, but to them a worm) and jiggle it with tongs? I did this with acorn squash and it helped get my Reggie turned on to veggies. Now she eats 50/50 veggies...

    Beardie not interested in food

    What are your temps? How long have you had the same UVB light? Where is it? While his eating has slowed, how long has it been since he last ate? Lastly, is he currently going through a shed?

    My First Beardy!

    Welcome to the forums! Lots of good advice here. I agree about separating them. Don't worry, they aren't going to miss each other and you're doing them a favor that they'll appreciate more than being forced to occupy the same tank. Any tank will do, you can get the front opening one if that's...

    So much to learn!

    She looks great! Color wise, mine and yours look like twins. The only difference is my dragon is a big girl. :cool: Your concern is a sign of your level of care, which is fantastic. Believe it or not, her not pooping for a week could be normal. Mine used to go every 2-3 days, but once she...

    hello....

    I give mine a bath once every other week, and that's usually when she poops too.

    new bd darkens its color?

    No. That is a sign of dominance and can make the dragon on the bottom sick. The link I provided explains that. I'd recommend reading it.

    new bd darkens its color?

    http://reptilefacts.tumblr.com/post/82462304005/bearded-dragons-and-cohabitation Please read that article. I have to warn you tho: while they're isn't any blood in the photos, there are pics of dragons with missing limbs so it's a little graphic. Unfortunately it's also true. We have to keep in...

    Tortoise and lizard canned food

    I agree with Patsy. http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutritionframeset.html Is a good link to have handy. Be careful with leeks tho, at least one owner has said they lost their beardie because they are toxic. Part of the onion family, so it makes sense.

    new bd darkens its color?

    Color changing is usually one of two things: body temperature regulation or stress. Body temperature - mine darkens her skin when I turn her light off for the night. It's just natural. Stress - I would guess this is the case in your situation for two reasons: they are less than 2 weeks in a...

    Growth spurt?!

    Haha - as a huge Southpark fan I appreciate that last statement. So far everything sounds normal, as long as you're practicing good husbandry, keeping him hydrated, and he has an appetite. You are talking to someone that has one of those fat dragons. :D Mine was a huge insect junkie for years...

    Beardie favortism

    Sure thing, I'm happy to give my thoughts. I hope it doesn't spark arguments in others; everyone please keep in mind these are my thoughts, being a beardie owner for almost three years now, and I'm pretty set in them. :p 1. The biggest thing for me is you can't gutload them. I use roaches and...
