    Strange Beardie Habits

    Haha my little guy (Heimdall, 11 months old) sleeps with both of his front arms tucked alongside his belly, I’m always diligent about calcium because it’s so weird, I panic he’s got MBD at least once a week but nope, he’s just bizarre lol. He also does the beard stretch every morning, and opens...

    Oh how kind of you to ask! :) ended up that he has pinworms and coccidia, but no respiratory infection at least! The vet gave us some deworming meds and we have another appointment in a month for another fecal test to make sure the problem has been solved. He seems to be doing just fine aside...

    OK I’m back, sorry! The UVB light fixture came with a clear plastic cover over the bulb, you said I should remove that right? Also according to the digital probe his basking temperature is right at 100, so seems like he’s good there! His stool was very runny, I picked up a sample to take to the...

    Awesome thank you so much!! So new UVB light and a probe thermometer, plus vet visit tomorrow morning. He’s lucky he’s my whole life, I’m going broke loving him lol!

    Will this work even though it’s not reptisun? It’s the T8 bulb and reflector in one. If not I’ll buy from Pangea, but I get a killer discount here so i would definitely rather buy from here if it’s the right fixture

    These are my options at Petco, where I work. This is what I could get him today. I could order something online, but obviously it will take a few days to deliver. I guess it depends on How necessary it is to get it immediately?

    My tank is a 50 gallon, is the first bulb here considered a tube bulb or do I need the second one? I have a wide mesh screen top so I could easily set it on top, but if I need to put it inside the tank how would I do that? Just hang it like with string/zip ties or something?

    Ok so... NOT this one? It’s just what came in the reptile kit I bought when I got him, gotta love how inaccurate the information PetSmart gives you is...

    Just the one wheeze around midnight last night and the one sneeze about an hour ago, nothing consistent. Ok. I’ll move the log back to where it used to be, which keeps his basking temp between 95-100 according to the two different kinds of stick on thermometers I have although I know those...

    This is his warm side, so like I said he can get as close or as far to the light as he pleases. But if I need to change that, literally anything to help him. I just didn’t know how quickly this problem could turn deadly. Everything online is like “TAKE HIM IMMEDIATELY OR HE WILL SUFFOCATE” and...

    Oh damn I moved his log closer to try and raise the temp because that’s what a lot of the other advice was, raise it to 109-120 and I didn’t know how else to do that besides moving him closer to the light... no mucous coming out of anywhere, and I can get him an UTH tomorrow but it’s 11pm and...

    Hey guys, I believe my beardie has an upper respiratory infection. The first symptom I noticed was a day or two ago, he had been opening his mouth a little more than normal. I thought he was just trying to cool himself down, but last night as I was going to bed I heard one small wheezing noise...

    What is he/she doing?? Should I be concerned??

    Thanks for your help!! I appreciate it!

    What is he/she doing?? Should I be concerned??

    He usually eats greens (collard greens, mustard greens, parsley and kale are our favorites) every other day and about 20-30 crickets twice a week. The super worms were a treat for the travel stress. He was not running or anything, completely normal behavior other than the choking. And I gave him...
