    Some advice for food for Juvi Beardie

    @rob.kolm, I found a similar bowl in red (at our house reptile dishes are red, a holdover from mouse bits etc from the snake) and the tiny crickets Elliot is eating can't jump out, so he's happy. He sits on his log and picks them off. @PsycoMenace - maybe call the pet store or breeder and ask...

    need help please

    Oh, did order the 18" reptisun UVB and a fixture, and I'm brainstorming the next tank, now that I know so much more. This forum is helpful.

    Hi Jarich, My UVB is a reptisun mini compact fluorescent, the bulb is not be twisty one, but 2 U-shaped tubes. The under tank heater is on the bottom of the tank, and covered by reptile rug, and is basically offering a night time warm spot. Basking light is a 100w flood also from reptisun

    need help please

    I'm interested in the above question, as well. I'm going to have to order a tube UVB from Amazon, I think, because I just can't find a bulb and something to put the bulb into here. I have a reptisun 10.0 UVB spotlight, but Elliot has been looking pretty dark. I draped a white washcloth over...

    Sooo cute! I'm going to get some dubia roaches, but that has to wait until mid February. I'm going on vacation and my husband is horrified by the idea of the roaches, so I won't ask him to take care of them, lol. The crickets and the dragon itself don't bother him, though. I haven't told him yet...

    Some advice for food for Juvi Beardie

    My baby won't stay in the feeding bin for 15 minutes, and he can't seem to find the crickets in his tank. (plus I suck at catching the little buggers out of the tank). So I put him in the feeding bin 3 x a day and he eats 7 or 8 crickets, then climbs the walls in a frenzy to get out. In his...

    Hello! I'm new to dragons

    Getting the baby from Petco is fine, it's just that they gave me some pretty wrong information about what the babies need as far as care and feeding and equipment. So as far as impulse buying before doing the research, I guess is what I was saying, the big pet stores get a thumbs down - I ended...

    Hello! I'm new to dragons

    Hey, cool forum. Thanks for being here! I'm SM Johnson, erotic fiction writer and mental health worker, and just got my first bearded dragon on Friday. My 11 y.o. daughter talked me into a baby bearded dragon (from Petco, sigh) last Friday. Kind of wish I'd waited and set up first, or even...
