    If you tell her he died then she will just want another one and a healthy animal will come to an unfortunate and sad end. I know he was ill and needed extra attention, but she didn’t even bother with his basic needs of a heat lamp, I am afraid she needs to be stopped from doing it again. I...

    Hasn't pooped in a week

    Priscilla goes once a week and always has, she has always been weird. As a baby she wouldn’t eat crickets and still won’t, locusts only, very rarely eats veg even though it’s offered everyday. If yours will eat veg, butternut squash is a natural wormer. As long as they’re eating, basking and...

I have been reading that Beardie basking spot temperatures should be taken as air temperatures with a probe thermometer and...

    Vivarium Lighting

    Hi I have a question about changing my Beardies lighting set up. My current set up is a 4foot viv with an Arcadia Desert 10% UV tube running the full length above the doors with a full length reflector fitted behind it. My heat source is from a 100watt Exxo Terra Sun Glo spot lamp hanging from...

    Hi All

    Hi, my name is Andy and I come here with my friend Elvis who is now around 5 months old. He is a lively little fella who from day one has never touched crickets, no matter how hard I tried he wouldn't eat them. He actually went a week without eating anything even though there were live crickets...
