    Question Hopefully Someone Can Answer

    Everyone is going to go on and on about your lighting … and I’m not going to tell you that lighting isn’t important, but, yes, your guy might be starting to brumate. This is the time of year my dragon does his thing … acting as you’ve described and then will finally go I to his hide and just...

    Hiding

    BRUMATION IS NOT out of the equation. Some beardies keep the their native homeland schedule and will brumate during our US summertime. Mine just started his yearly stint of hiding within this last week. Do research outside this forum please. Keep an eye on her weight and as long as she’s not...

    Dexter's Giving Attitude

    I started a roach colony (took surprisingly long time for them to start breeding) and now my beardie won’t eat them! I’m actually a little dismayed, not knowing what I’m going to do with all the roaches I now have ... and they just keep making more even though I no longer keep them at the...

    Brumation?

    Don’t let people here freak you out please. If you don’t already have a kitchen scale, get one so that you can monitor his weight. My guy did a weird semi-brumation at an early age and it lasted for months. Drove me crazy with worry! But First I need to say that I didn’t read all the...

    Adult bearded dragon concern

    Speaking as someone who’s had our beardie since it was a few weeks old, trust me, I’ve tried from the beginning to get him to eat veg and fruit but he’s always been more willing to go hungry instead! He used to be willing to eat dandelion greens when he was young ... so now I actually grow it...

    Terrarium Stand

    I ended up making one myself. It’s not stylish but it was cheap and you only see the legs of it anyway since the enclosure fits perfectly on top.

    Adult bearded dragon concern

    My guy is younger than yours at only about a year and a half, but I seem to have the same issue. He’s always been a picky eater - he’ll go days without food if I don’t offer not only insects, but the type of insect he wants at that time. It’s frustrating and worrisome for sure. I’ve tried doing...

    Swollen beardies neck...HELP!!!

    That’s how my guy looks all the time. Food isn’t relevant to my situation.

    Bearded Behavior

    Or again, all lighting issues aside, It’s most likely hormonal. My guy is less than two years old, and what you’re describing sounds exactly like his behavior for about a month after he came out of brumation. Literally trying to climb the walls. Luckily we discovered that he’ll settle at the...

    Size advice

    Size advice

    My one year old male was 18.5” when I measured him last, but that was four months ago. He weighed 525g at that time. I haven’t measured him since, but he weighed 581g two weeks ago. He’s been brumating off and on since February (Took a two month break Feb-March then back at it) so I have to...

    Basking bulb

    This person put a link to the bulb, not sure why you’re shaking your head at them ...

    Beardie not basking or eating

    I have an 8 month old. In January he started eating less. By February he was barely eating at all, had pretty much stopped pooping, was spending a lot of time in his hide, and was going into “stoner mode” (Not really sleeping, but not really awake either). I was freaking out. This is my first...

    Broken finger?

    I’ve never experienced this, but my guy is under a year old. I just found this online “If the nails have been completely pulled out then chances are they won't grow back, however if they have just broken off then they can grow back but take a while....months.” so it sounds like Marshall might...

    Dragon Puffing his beard and moving weirdly?

    My guy has done the same thing. He’s 7 months old now and I first noticed it maybe 1-2 months ago. He did this for maybe 1-3 minutes at a time. Looked uncomfortable! Just from the bearded dragon research I had done, I assumed it’s his body’s way of learning how to “beard”, and not seen anything...
