    New Adoptee in need of some TLC

    I thought it might be the other beardies too (I now have a 5 month old male and a 6 month old female) but they are kept in a totally different room so I'm not sure. Where's Dr. Dolittle when you need him!? Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    I've gently proded areas to see if he would react at all but he doesn't seem to have a pain reaction. If it keeps up much longer I'll call the vet and get his opinion. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    So everything seems to still be going ok with Lex but lately he has gotten MEAN (granted it's compared to what he was like). I still hold him, feed him, give him baths, but whenever I get hear him he starts hissing, puffing up his beard, swishing his tail around, lunging at my hand, and tries...

    Thank you everyone. My son's first birthday party was today so Lex got a ton of visitors and attention. To anyone outside of a reptile keeper it might sound weird but it's amazing watching a lizard smile. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    It's really sad but i would rather know what I'm dealing with than deal with surprises. The vet said that he couldn't give me any sort of time-frame for him, might be next week or in 5 years. He said as long as he's eating and drinking then it's looking positive. He also brought up that due...

    New Adoptee in need of some TLC

    Well we went to the vet yesterday and the good news is that we are parasite free! Bad news is that we have a mass (it's unknown if its a cyst, tumor, calcium deposit, etc) in the intestinal/follicle region and we are officially in kidney failure (verified by blood work) :-( He told me to just...

    So the last couple of days Lex has had some seriously RANK, like clear the house, smelling poop. The last couple of days he's been eating between 5-8 roaches a day plus greens (he was doing about 4 roaches a day prior). He's still a lot more active and alert too. My wife is very sensitive to...

    He has. The vet said the same thing, maybe MBD but it's tough to say until he's stronger. Other than being super thin he's good to go :-) he's been a lot more active today, looking around, holding his head up, eyes open, follows me past the tank at times. Good signs. Sent from my SM-G935V...

    I'm not giving up on him yet by any means :-) just hard to see him seemingly better one day then get worse the next day. He was actually quite peppy and active (compared to how he has been) this afternoon. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    New Adoptee in need of some TLC

    This is all great info! Thanks everyone! My hope is starting to wain a little for my adoptee. He's eating about 4-5 small to medium dubias a day along with greens. He's getting soaked every other day, and getting water out of a droplet every day but he is just getting more and more...

    Great to hear, thank you. The dubias are from my colony that I keep for all my milk frogs so I know they're feed well and gut loaded. I also dust them with repashy every 2-3 feedings. I am worried about MBD. The setup of his tank previously only had the UV on the cold side so I'm guessing...

    New Adoptee in need of some TLC

    Hello everyone, I recently adopted a 7-8 year old beardy who wasn't being well taken care of. Where he was before had the hot side of his cage at ~80 and the cool side ~60-65. He was feed maybe once a well if he was lucky and that was some crickets and lettuce. I've since got the temps...
