    Basking temp

    Hello everyone, My beardie is approx 3.5 years old. He doesn't seem to want to bask anything more than 90 degrees. Does this sound normal to you? He will be laying on the ground warm/hot side, ill take his temperature on his back and it reads about 90 degrees. His enclosure is 4ft x 2ft x 2ft...

    basking temp

    Best substrates to use are tiles, easy to clean and absorbs heat well, you can find these at your local hardware store. Other options include newspaper or paper towels very easy to clean up and replace although they are not attractive looking as tiles. Reptile carpet is another one but I really...

    Possible dead roach

    Hello everyone, I was feeding my beardie some roaches. He has an extremely amazing appetite, so when i shaked some dubias into his food bowl i went to check on this one dubia as it was just laying there playing dead (as it looked like) so as soon as I touched it to see if it would wiggle or...

    Source for large driftwood?

    Yeah I agree, Reptile Shows would be your best option. I found a few good pieces of driftwood logs that I was able to put in my 4ft x 2ft x 2ft wooden enclosure. Problem with ordering on Amazon is that its totally random, you could get an odd shape or maybe just wont work for your setup. If you...

    Best Calcium Powder

    Yes, he has the Arcadia 12% +D3 T5HO linear bulb. I just decided to continue with the ZooMed Repti Calcium without D3 since he is already getting the D3. Don't want to over supplement and cause toxicity. Then I also have Repashy Calcium Plus supplement (which i use for my leopard geckos) and I...

    Best Calcium Powder

    Hello everyone, I've been using the ZooMed Calcium Powder without D3 since I am supplying his UVB lights. I checked on the expiration date and it has expired, so I was wondering what do you guys use for your beardies? Is ZooMed Calcium the best powder or is there another calcium powder to get...

    Constant Black Bearding

    Hi, How is his environment: What kind of UVB bulb? Are you using a linear bulb? Mercury Vapor bulb? Coil bulb? What kind of heat bulb? Do you know the temperatures? What is the temp for the basking spot? Warm side? Cool side? My beardie has been hiding too and sleeping more but its due to the...

    Runny poop

    Thank you for uploading the photos. And no worries on the typos :) A few things that need attention is that both of them need UVB bulb which is a long linear fluorescent tubing such as the reptisun 10.0. They make two different types one is T8 (the output is weaker, therefore, the dragon needs...

    Runny poop

    He could be clawing at the glass because he either wants to come out, the temperatures could be too hot or isn't right, or something in his enclosure is stressing him out. Do you have a photo of his setup so we can review and see what might be going on :) Also, do you know the temperatures? Warm...

    Vet Visit

    Sure, his name is Lynn McEwan. There should be a sticky thread on vets to avoid. Found a great exotic vet finder: https://arav.org/ Hopefully, the next vet I go to can establish a good relationship. *Fingers crossed* :):bd:

    Vet Visit

    No, in fact, the vet wants me to come back in another week to finish off the Ivermectin stuff which I am totally not. Finished up with his Panacur treatment, thank goodness. He hates that stuff and it's like pulling teeth literally to get him to open his mouth to take it. I am just offering him...

    Vet Visit

    The vet had these binoculars and he did not PHYSICALLY SEE them on him but when he did the fecal examination, he said there were these mite looking bugs on the screen. I was there when he was showing it. Then saw these lil worms moving across the screen and said these are the parasites, etc. I...

    Vet Visit

    It's kinda odd but the vet said to keep the enclosure around 85-90, and his cool side lower than that. I don't know I feel like the basking temp should be a bit higher. I was reading that they don't even begin to get internal temperature until it is 98 degrees so how can he properly digest or...
