    Brumation question

    Is it possible that my one year old dragon has been in brumation for the last 3 months? Since July he hasn't wanted to eat at all, not even bugs. But if I make a slurry or make him open his mouth and put food in, he'll eat it no problem. I took him to the vet and outside of having a slightly...

    Travel tank setup?

    I'm wanting to take a little weekend road trip in a couple weeks, and was wondering if anyone had any good tutorials or ideas for an easy travel tank for dragons. I've heard of people using Rubbermaid tubs, but I'm worried the basking bulb would make the plastic melt. Has anyone successfully...

    Popping noise when chewing/will not eat veggies

    What does it mean if there's a popping/cracking sound when your bearded dragon is chewing? My guy has been 150% refusing to eat his veggies no matter what I do to them this past month. He just turned 9 months. No amount of bribing will get him to eat them. He'll gobble up all his bugs without...

    What is the best way to store BSFL?

    Maybe it is a dirt, lol. I don't know what it is, I should ask the seller, but it looks like a bran of some sort. I get them from a reputable seller online and their feeders are always healthy and clean. Their substrate probably gets moist fast because I put collard green stems in the cup to...

    What is the best way to store BSFL?

    BSFL always comes in what looks like sawdust or wheat bran, but it gets super moist and smelly fast. And it's a tedious pain trying to dig them out of the stuff, and then having to wash the sawdust/wheat bran off before feeding. Does anyone have a better and easier way of storing them? My little...

    4-5 month old dragon not pooping every day.

    Thank you, I'll cut them out and see how he does. Giving him juicy bugs is a good idea, maybe it'll help him poop more regularly. I'll look into finding some silkworms. Do you know of a good place to order some online?

    4-5 month old dragon not pooping every day.

    I'll cut back on them, thank you. He's been eating them with a variety of other bugs his whole life, and is just now starting to poop every other day. He mostly eats dubias or bsfl. The mealworms are mostly a treat cause he goes crazy for them, and I make sure not to give them to him with his...

    4-5 month old dragon not pooping every day.

    Is too much D3 bad for digestion? I'll try giving him D3 more often. Here he is, and this is his enclosure. I plan on getting him a bigger tank within the year so he has more room. He came from a great breeder, and is a really friendly guy, and seems happy. I just want to make sure his pooping...

    4-5 month old dragon not pooping every day.

    I have a digital thermometer on either side of the tank, right at the basking spots. I have a halogen basking bulb, a CHE for night, and a reptisun 10.0 T5 tube bulb inside the tank. His tank gets to 105°f during the day, and down to 75°f at night. I give him calcium supplement in his salad...

    4-5 month old dragon not pooping every day.

    I have a 4-5 month old dragon (not sure on his exact age, I should ask the breeder), and for the last couple of weeks he's been pooping every other day instead of every day. Is this a problem? He's eating normally, eats all his veggies in the morning, inhales all his bugs throughout the day, is...

    Does my uvb bulb need a hood?

    Does my uvb bulb need a hood? I have a reptisun 10.0 t5 bulb in a hoodless fixture. I've put it inside the tank, and want to make sure my dragon is getting enough uvb. I've read mixed info on the matter, and wanted to get some opinions.

    DIY light reflector?

    Is there a way to make your own light reflector? I have reptisun 10.0 t5 bulb in a hoodless fixture, but have read that a hood is important. I can't afford a new fixture right now, so I was hoping there's a way I could make my own until I can get a new fixture with a hood.

    UVB Reptisun

    UVB can't penetrate glass, so to get optimal UVB output in your tank, it's best to put the bulb inside.

    UVB Reptisun

    I bought these command strips from Amazon and hung my fixture to it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OFNM2TU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_kYD9FbGFM7807?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
