    Weird bump on bearded dragon

    Weird bump on beardie. Just realized it today was looking at pictures and it seems like a week ago it formed. I bought benadine and makuna honey to put on it. I figure it’s just a bug bite however I don’t know any thoughts before I take her to a vet

    Strange black growth(?)

    Hi, I just noticed a strange black spot on my bearded dragon who I've had for about 6 years. It's small but it's definitely not a scale-- does anyone know what this is? Is it a cut or something worse?

    Bearded dragon not growing

    I got my bearded dragon from a breeder at a reptile expo around late september this year at two months old. He's always eaten fine (around 15 to 20 crickets a day) and would consistently eat his salad until recently. I've checked common bearded dragon growth charts and it seems that he should be...

    Is something wrong with him?

    My bearded dragon has been just sitting in the corner for a while now, and I don't know if it's brumation because I have read about that and things. So I don't want to force feed him and have it mold in his belly. I wanted to ask to see if anyone knows whats going on. It is currently winter here...

    Worried about my beardie

    Hi so I was hoping to get some advice on how I can help my bearded dragon? So I rescued him about 6 months ago from someone who was selling him online who didn’t know how to care for reptiles (had no heater) they weren’t able to tell me his age or what his diet had been like as it was their...

    My beardie is suddenly really dark!

    Recently, my bearded dragon has turned really dark all over. Before he turned dark, he was really bright yellowish and I didn’t have this problem with him before. Occasionally, he also goes into one of his hides and will sit there for a bit. My current guess is he is really stressed about...

    Help please!!! NOSTRIL HELP

    Hi, my bearded dragon is named Scout and I got him back in September. I am very new to raising a beardie and I fear I might have damaged his ability to smell/breathe in one nostril. I read online that when beardie’s get boogers you get them out with tweezers. I tried but he struggled and the...

    Gout in beardies

    Has anyone experienced a beardie with gout issues? Mine won’t eat on his own anymore (unless it’s mealworms, but I’m trying to keep him off of these since this is what I believe caused it to start with) and his back legs are not moving normally. They either drag, or, when he does move them it...

    Diarrhea

    hi, i have had my bearded dragon for around 2 years now and he has been having diarrhea for the past 6 months. It was never a big concern since he never showed signs of being lethargic. He is an adult and lives in a 20 gallon, i acknowledge this is unacceptable and he gets to go outside everyday...

    Hello, I'm new to owning bearded dragons and I've had this one for two months now. She suddenly started walking strange the other day, it looks like a limp?
