    hyoid bone broken - experiences?

    hm, vet said that, other than some built-up mucus / thickened saliva, her mouth and teeth are fine :) i'll feet her cucumbers more (the inner part only, which is nice and juicy) to help her "rinse" her mouth better, since she doesn't drink water (i offer her some occasionally, ether in a bowl or...

    hyoid bone broken - experiences?

    hello all! I was at the vet yesterday, with my beardie girl (she's about 6 years old now) I initially went because I noticed her hissing/making noises while breathing after her last bath, and was worried she might have some kind of lung infection she's totally okay in that department, but, doc...

    how to help her lose weight?

    heya! a few weeks ago, i took my beardie (she's 5, had her for a couple months now) to the vet for a checkup. she got de-worming meds and was otherwise fine. she is a bit on the fat side (vet said it's still within tolerance but i should watch her) so she now only gets bugs once a week (i...

    is it bad my beardie stashes food in her beard?

    heya you all! so, all in all my beardie's (she's 5) doing well, no concerns right now. though, i've noticed that she's always stashing the food she eats in her beard. it doesn't matter what it is, it always goes into her beard first, and from there she flexes it, does big gulps until she...

    tip of her tail fell off!

    hey all! my beardie (5) has had a dead tail tip for a while now. i had it looked at by a vet and he said it's nothing to worry about, after her worm treatment (which ends in three days) he'd cleanly remove the tip, just to make sure it's well and doesn't cause problems so... today, the tip...

    Beardie breathing - normal?

    sorry for the late replies "How are you taking her out of her tank?" the tank is on ground level, so i usually sit down and am basically eye-to-eye when i reach for her. then i slide my hands under her from both sides (one under her front legs/head and one to basically sit her onto my palm)...

    how does your BD react to being outside?
