Sadly I don't know, our local vet here was closed for the 4th holiday and he didn't check him for any birth defects when I took him there for the suspected respiratory infection. But the breeder that has him now said he'd be taking him to his vet who specializes in beardies on Monday, so maybe...
So, we found a local bearded dragon breeder here in Arkansas, we told him about Alastor and he told us to bring him by his shop. We went there Wednesday(July 3rd) and took Alastor for him to look at. He's been breeding beardies for years, so we trusted his opinion.
Alastor started doing the...
Hello!
My name is Dani, I'm a 36 year old stay at home mom living in Arkansas.
This is Alastor (Named after the character from Hazbin Hotel) he's probably around 2 months old, we decided his birthday was 4/20 since we got him from Petco (I know, I know).
He's given us a bit of a scare in...
The Flukers one does have its brand on it, the other doesn't, it was from a previous beardie owner she just said it was a heat +UVA. So, when I go to pick up the BSFL I may just get another Flukers heat bulb maybe in a lower wattage to get his basking area to the right temp. So far right now...
I finally got him doing the gaping/breathing. This was probably 5 minutes after he ate 0.5cc of Repa+Boost.
I went to the vet this morning, didn't take him though, but I took his poo in and told the vet what was going on with him. Vet gave me some of the Flukers Repta+Boost told me to try it...
Shed is the first thing I thought of, but there's no darkening of the scales yet. I've put one of the lights on a dimmer, I have two because one just wasn't enough(basking area barely got to 90). One is a straight heat lamp, the other is a UVA/Heat lamp. I put the plain heat lamp on a dimmer to...
Next time he does it, I'll try to capture it, it's never a long period of time, so it's hard to get it. I may have to invest in a nest cam or something.
It's random, sometimes it's right after he eats, sometimes it's just randomly, but it's almost always after he rubs his face/nose on...
Okay, so, I got my new baby on Friday. I had the enclosure ready to go before I got him and temps regulated and all a week before.
(Arcadia T5 24w tube inside in the tank, basking spot around 110, cool side between 73 to 75. Ambient air is in the 80s)
But he was doing some worrying things, I...
Awesome! Thank you so much. ❤️ I think my mother in law has some cardboard, I'll be making a trip to her house tomorrow for my son to visit, so I'll grab some from her then and switch stuff around. And the UVB is directly above his basking area, right around 13 inches away.
I use probes on both sides and my husband borrows a heat temp gun from work and we check that too.
The UVB is mounted inside the tank and it's the Arcadia brand? I think that's how it's spelled lol I don't remember the exact type I think it was T10? It was gifted brand new to me and the box...
So, it's been a long time since I've had a baby beardie.
I have a 4x2x2 reptile habitats enclosure, heat lamp, regular household bulb on the cold side for extra light because it was pretty dark without it, tube UVB, temps are at 73.9 for cool side and right around his basking area ranges from...
