    What kind of tiles in enclosure?

    glass is too slippy, you will need to change it for wood. Also I would remove or cover the mirror, they can get freaked out by their own reflections. Having all that height can cause problems as light may not reach the bottom, especially if the middle shelf replaced with wood.

    How can we improve BDF?

    Aha! I was looking for a suggestions thread. I have been a regular here for quite a while now and i have enjoyed helping the moderators out where I can answering peoples questions. The vast majority of the information I give others I have gotten from this site itself. Time after time I notice...

    Baby Beardie color.

    dont know the specific colour name, but it will change a bit as he gets older. Could get a bit brighter, other colour can pop out. Beautiful dragon by the way, congrats.

    Lump on his jaw

    whew, ok so its just shed behind his eye. Try to get him to drink some water, he looks a little dehydrated. Just put a drop of water on his nose every so often and he will lick it off.

    Lump on his jaw

    well it doesnt look nice. could you post some more pics from different angles, there are a lot of patches of shed on his head and its hard to tell what's what. The spot behind his eyes looks odd, but I cant tell if its just the pic angle and shed making it look that way. As for that lump, it...

    Small bumps??

    gout is a possibility but you would expect to see it in other toes and especially the ankles, unless it is very early stage. Its more likely that it is soft tissue damage, like I said, just keep an eye on it and if it spreads or gets worse seek vet advice. Gout can be fatal in dragons if left...

    Please help me! Colour change under jaw and torso, pooping blood for 2 days and not eating!

    it can mean a lot of things, could be scared (change in environment), could be territorial (usually only when other dragons present though), or poor husbandry, or he could be sick. Best to rule out the latter first if bearding persists or starts sleeping all day with eyes closed. All you can do...

    Comment by 'BeardedHippy' in media 'Male or female? I used a black light that I found in my closet last week, let me know ASAP'

    you need to shine the light 'through' the back of the tail. https://imgur.com/r/BeardedDragons/s2OIALb Just use a normal flashlight, not black

    Bearded dragon to skinny?

    beautiful, healthy looking baby. Sad chicken nugget, your dragon doesnt hate anyone, it is just not used to you. You just need to build trust, its a gradual process.

    Small bumps??

    yes ,femoral pores look blocked. Not sure about the lumps, could be a number of things, keep a close eye on them and if they get worse you need to see a vet. The swollen toe concerns me, has he caught it on something? Again, vet trip if it looks like it is getting worse or spreads to other toes.

    gender confirmation

    Hi, its impossible to tell from those pics. How old is it? They are very difficult to sex before 6 months old as they all tend to look female. You need to do the flashlight test. Turn down the lights, gently lift up the beardies tail and shine a flashlight through the base of the tail. You...

    What kind of tiles in enclosure?

    Glazed tiles can be used if you turn them upside down, but they look ugly. Use slate or terracotta

    What is wrong with my beardie?

    Don't beat yourself up, you did the right thing. It may not have been your fault, sometimes they just fail to thrive for no apparent reason.
