    Help! Need some expert Beardie advice!

    Safest guidance here: Anything she eats should be no larger in length than the space between her eyes. My 8 month old safely consumes 3/4" dubias 15 at a time. As for the salads, black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) make excellent moving "croutons" to stimulate her. I'm hardly an expert, but what...

    Brumation?

    Yes, can be as little as 10" if she wants. So I will follow her lead.

    Brumation?

    She now has a sunblaster 24" UVB with reflector over basking spot and mid tank with varying height for her to choose from. Despit this, she is still choosing to spend most time on cool side hammock. She is eating two healthy meals each day. Do I leave her alone? Place her on basking side...

    Brumation?

    T-5. the fixture I am using was recommended by one of the experts on this forum. Prior to this last week, she knew how to get plenty of UVB by staying directly under it as needed. Why would she choose to NOT get the UVB she needs only recently, when she has been getting plenty for months? Just...

    Brumation?

    Here is tank (previously posted). She is 8 months old, weighs 185G. FYI last week you suggested I reduce her big intake. She eagerly eats, AM and afternoon, but tends to want to go to her sleep spot earlier than usual.

    Brumation?

    We live in North East US, and our 7 month old is showing signs of brumation. Sluggish, reduced appetite and much more time on cooler side of tank. Temps and lighting are perfect and in line with everything posted on this site. Do I continue to offer food? Should I reduce her amount of daylight...

    Correct weight?

    Here is 8 month old Frita. She eats 15-20 3/4" dubia's 2x per day in under 60 seconds. She also eats all the right salad. Is her weight right? Is she too heavy? If so, the concept of "feed them as much as they will eat in 5-10 minutes" is not accurate. Comments?

    Too large too soon?

    Put our girl in a Zen 4x2 at 4 months. No issue. Just make sure your new one can climb hi enough to reach basking temps

    Hand Feeding

    Our 8 month old girl eats salads no problem but she absolutely prefers being hand fed. We are happy, but that's not always convenient. Is this typical beardie behavior?

    Shedding

    As the skin begins to fall off, should I help right away, or give it some time? Skin just started coming off today on 5 month old

    Half Dull/Half Color

    Can't figure out why our newbie's tail is very colorful, and upper body faded. In my snake days, this could indicate shed cycle coming. Great lighting, temps, eating, pooping an interacting otherwise. Thoughts on the faded vs. bright?

    Tongue Action

    Our newly added 4 month old will occasionally use it's tongue as if 'tasting' the hand or object in front of it. Did this several times when first introduced to our dog. Is using the tongue a method form assessing it's surroundings? In case you are wondering, dog encounter went very well, do...

    Beardie outside foraging

    I am new fairly new as well, but did this....hybrid-active. I know I will have to change out plants on occasion. Of course I have two huge bags of Terra Sahara and the ground coverings now doing nothing.

    Newbie Question

    Congrats. I am fairly new myself with a 4 month old beardie. Though mealworms are not the most recommended feeder, small ones on top of salad can help until you can order some Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) to sprinkle on salads as well. Crickets are ok, but mine loves the dubia roaches...
