    Potential German Giant Beardie?

    I may have gotten confused about whose post I was replying to... anyway take away what you will, my dragon keeping friends.

    Potential German Giant Beardie?

    Hey, so are your 3 dragons cohabitating? That would explain why one is growing more rapidly. You should separate them asap because the other two will suffer from not enough uvb and also, eventually they will turn on each other (we are talking about full on aggressive violence towards each other...

    New baby bearded dragon not eating much

    I totally feel ya on the worry end, I still worry over nothing sometimes and my girl is almost 4! Course we see the vet every 6 months because she was sick as a juvie. Overall, it seems you have things under control. I agree with the tube light suggestion. I use the Arcadia T5 HO 12% mounted...

    My beardie isn’t well. I’m very concerned

    Hi there, your beardie is sweet looking. I agree with the too young to brumate comment. The big question that pops into my head is what kind of lights are you using? I'm no expert but through trial and error and 4 years of experience and reading I eventually got a good setup going. Started...

    Is this yellow fungus?

    Could be shed, do you give warm water baths? It really helps them while shedding. I give my girl regular baths (she's potty trained now) some people do weekly, but daily or more during a shed can be so helpful. If it is don't force the scales off, be very gentle. The older they get the more...

    Not eating and hiding

    Whoa sorry, I didn't know that was still considered a swear. Just dawned on me what in the world you were talking about. No offense was meant to anyone obviously.

    Not eating and hiding

    Glad things are looking up for OP Calicorks. I wanted to add one thing. I understand you've switched off crickets for now, but later, when you introduce them again, (it'll love them eventually), make sure to keep track of them and remove any that go uneaten. They will bite beardies when they're...

    New Bearded dragon troubles

    I'm so sorry to hear that. Our first dragon was too little and sick and died in the first two weeks. Had gout they found out after he passed. It was heartbreaking. We adopted another soon afterwards, she was a little older and more hearty. She did have an RI that went undetected for months but...

    New Bearded dragon troubles

    Little bugs, is it maybe mites? You can google read up on mites and bearded dragons to learn more to see if it's that. Have you seen an exotic vet at all to raise your concerns and get a baseline on your dragon's health overall? It's something I wish we'd done when ours was little, it was...

    Suddenly Aggressive Dragon

    Hey, I recently saw a thread elsewhere about a suddenly aggressive male just under a year old. They chalked it up to puberty and I think hormones is a reasonable deduction here since he's 3. One of the great ideas they had for coping was to have a piece of greens in your hand every time you put...

    closing one eye

    Hey, about your lighting, are you using a tube UVB? Arcadia T5-HO 12% mounted above the screen is what I'm rocking for UVB and it lasts a year. The regular uvbs are not nearly as good in terms of output, it's a better UVB spectrum with the tube lights. So sayeth the experts. I got mine (and the...

    closing one eye

    Great thread here, lots of info. I need to mention, mealworms are actually generally discouraged as live feeders. Their shells are really hard and can cause impaction. Alternatives are (as a staple) crickets which you already are using, and dubia roaches (which I can't get in Canada-not...

    Odd behavior please help.x

    My beardie girl also does this periodically, usually in Spring, my theory is that she is in heat. An older lady friend I know from Australia suggested it was that when I first described the behaviour couple of years ago. There are many factors like improved living conditions (more natural...
