    Hi. Just bought in line a red bearded dragon.

    The little guy should get brighter as it grows. They might be in shed which will cause them to be duller, or if they're new to the tank they mightn't be comfortable and happy yet. My girl is always a brighter yellow/gold when she's happy and has had a lot of heat and UV. Give the little one...

    Five cats! You certainly must have your hands full! Fingers crossed for you that they'll all get along good! Kil initially freaked out at Poppy and whenever she went to run off, Poppy would go into play mode and start nipping at her toes and tail. I hardly used to let them interact due to this...

    Hdrydr31, Ah that's a pity they don't get along! I'm not sure how well you'd be wanting a male and female to be getting along anyway! It's so adorable how they'll just fall asleep when you're holding them ^^ your two sound adorable! I've started lowering the water and she still doesn't seem to...

    Healthy Weight?

    mxw0rld I've seen my girl occasionally stick her head in her water dish and sit like that for a while, and that always freaks me out! I don't think I'm game enough to do the Olympic swimming haha! The waters always enough that if she wants to have a splash about, she can anyway :) was just...

    Healthy Weight?

    Thank you Hdrydr31!!! I love her to bits :) I'm glad to know she doesn't look grossly overweight. When I found out that the average is supposedly 300-400, and she's at 700 I sort of freaked out! Thank you for your opinion on her, I was starting to worry I had a very chubby girl on my hands...

    Healthy Weight?

    Okay thank you for all the warnings about the baby food! I figured it'd help keep her hydrated (she's not good at eating) and help her pass motions (struggles with impaction) but to know it'll only dehydrate her and cause diarrhoea; I think I'll definitely stop that. I wouldn't have thought to...

    Healthy Weight?

    Thank you so much for al of your advice and suggestions!!! We've already stopped the worms (figured out that was her weight problem) and are only giving her crickets, grasshoppers and woodies. She doesn't like them very much but as you said, tough love. The vet recommended organic baby food...

    Healthy Weight?

    Sorry about that! ^^; of course you guys need more to go off! She's roughly a year and a half now She's a really fussy eater, so doesn't eat what she should be eating. She'll happily eat most insects but won't hunt for them, she'll expect to be hand fed or bowl fed. She eats grasshoppers...

    Healthy Weight?

    Thank you to anybody who reads this and gives suggestions and advice!!! I recently took my girl to the vets for a general checkup and the vet stated that Kilgharrah was the biggest bearded dragon she'd ever seen. We'd never thought Kil to be overly big, but we've never seen another adult in...

    Refusing To Hunt

    I'm so sorry to have never replied to your message!!!! I thought I had! Thank you so much for the suggestion, it's been working wonders! She'll happily eat Woodies out of a glass dish we got for her, so thank you so much for advising me and telling me about the bowl idea! Saves a lot of time and...

    Refusing To Hunt

    Thank you so much for letting me know and the suggestion! I'll be sure to find a container the roaches can't climb yet she can reach into. I thought I must have been doing/done something wrong so it's comforting to know that other Beardies do this too! My girl won't really feed from tongs...

    Refusing To Hunt

    I forgot to mention, every piece of equipment I own is proper reptile heating supplies. She has a Exo Terra 100W basking bulb for day and at night has a Exo Terra 100W Infared Heat Bulb (I know it's bad and disrupts sleep cycles, but she refuses to sleep and stressed out horribly when I had a...

    Refusing To Hunt

    I've had my Bearded Dragon for 7 months, she is 7-8 months old and is refusing to hunt her food. Previously we've had problems where she has refused food altogether, glass surfing and re-occurring impaction but thankfully that cleared up after the advice of people here. When we got her she had...
