Thank you Ladies. It never occurred to me to take him in the shower, he does like it in there. The skin is loose around the edges but I think it is definitely attached further in. I will very gently double check and either way give him a shower today. Showers are actually really funny with...
Hi,
This is my dragon Oscar, he shed about a week ago. I noticed the other day that he had quite a bit of unshed skin inside his right ear. I was scratching at it lightly with my fingernail and was able to get some of it off. What is left is in pretty far. I am wondering if there is a way to...
That is funny!! I love all their personalities and watching them interact with each other. It absolutely hilarious to see how they react when they see Mom or Dad outside their tanks. One huge arm wave and ZIP!! They are gone!! But I'll tell you one thing, after watching all the beating up...
Hi Andyurgay,
Brucey is doing really well. About a day or two after your last message someone bit that swollen arm of his. I put some triple antibiotic on it. Around the middle of the swollen part the skin was gone. Two days later I noticed that his swelling had gone down. He's all healed...
Thanks Andyurgay,
For some stupid reason it never occurred to me to put hiding places in for them. Maybe because they are baskers. I will definitely do that and see if I can find another tank. We call him Brucey, like the shark off Finding Nemo. I weighed him last week, most are around 5-6...
Thank you Andyurgay. I have three tanks of hatchlings right now and don't have a spare tank. He has turned out to be a bully, not suprising since he out weighs the others by 5-6 grams. I see what you mean about the pain. He is the most active and will pick on the smaller ones. Things are...
I am not really sure if it is very painful for him. He walks and climbs all over the place with his leg like this. He also does not fight me when I need put triple antibiotic on it. But I think maybe you are right that I should find an exotic vet to have it checked out. It is just the...
I have 15 hatchlings that are 64 days old. Five of the 15 are missing a part of one of their front legs. These five are housed together in a separate tank, there was a sixth hatchling in with them that was uninjured. He recently started attacking the other five so I moved him to another...
Thanks Caitjinoy. I did put the two aggressive guys that I was able to single out in to a 10 gal tank. The one little guys are is slowly going down. Another's first half of his front leg fell off but like you said he is doing really well. I have all the ones with bitten legs in one tank. I...
He is doing a bit better, his arm is not as swollen today. He is eating greens like mad, they all are. It's just the crickets that they don't like. Actually I wouldn't say don't like, it's more like they are scared S#@%less of them. LOL Although I took a really aggressive hatchling and put...
Thanks PatsyB,
I went to PetSmart today and talked to a girl there. I found a juvenile Bearded Dragon food that is a replacement for crickets. She said that it would work well on hatchlings that are not eating crickets yet. She said they can be afraid of them and won't eat them until they are...
Hi PatsyB,
I have been feeding them in groups of 3-4 and I still have only 2 that are eating crickets. I know the crickets are important for their growth. But should I maybe try a hatchling food to compensate until they start the crickets?
Thanks
Hi Everyone,
I have 15 hatchlings in three tanks. I have two 20 gal tanks with 7 in each one and a 10 gal tank with one aggressive little guy in it. When they were first hatched all I had was a 20 gal tank and they were all in there together. Needless to say there are a lot of nipped tails...
Hi Mike,
I have found that Craigslist.com is a great place to get used tanks fairly inexpensively. If it was used as a fish tank and has a lot of calcium build up on it, before you clean it lay it on one side at a time and pour vinegar on it and let it sit for about 5 min. While your soaking...
