    when do beardies become adults?

    CAT PROBLEMS!!!!

    I have two cats. One is a shut in (meaning he rarely goes outside - only to wee and then runs back in (5 minutes tops - total pain) But he is so scared of himself, let alone ANYTHING else, I'm more worried about the beardie biting him than visa versa. Sam, (short for Sam I am) has major social...

    DO BEADIES MAKE NOISES and/or COMMUNICATE?

    I'm not a total loon. I know my dragon doesn't talk in words. But he does communicate with quiet puffs, faint popping noises and quick mouth shuts......typical male - full of hot air. He also makes a long blowing out sound (with a closed mouth) if I'm handling him too roughly. This usually...

    Why choose dragons/lizards?

    I don't know about the floating thing. My guy can't float - he sinks (every time)! He sits on the bottom looking up at me from under water like, HELP!! I've given it a few split seconds, thinking he'll swim but he doesn't - he freezes. Only after I grab him out does he puff up (alittle too...

    Does anybody own a Uromastyx?

    I assume a PowerSun bulb can get up to 130F. The vet tech I talked to said 130 is about the highest you should go but no less than 110F. They also need burrows so most I've seen are kept on some kind of sand (play sand or bird seed works). They also need BIG tanks! Some I've seen are in...

    Does anybody own a Uromastyx?

    FYI - the vet tech I talk to alot when I visit my local reptile clinic told us that Uros do bit. He said that if one ever does decide to chomp down, its very difficult to get them to let go. He said he'd much rather get bitten by a pitbull than a Uro! We also had a friend who served in the...

    she's a healthy one.

    Yeah, I tried to use a papertowel & rubber band thing. It stayed on while he was sitting still of course but he ended up kicking it off as he walked around - despite the tail hole. I'm still working on the design. He's pretty much down for the count right now due to brumation, so I really...

    she's a healthy one.

    Took Henry to my son's 3rd grade class last Spring. It was fun until I showed the kids how he eats. 2 minutes after he ate a super, he took a super poo! The girls screamed and even the boys got grossed out. All I could do was laugh and tell the kids that if they don't like picking up poo, then...

Bigger picture: If you don't like the advice you're given, step off, period, end of story. Nobody is holding you up, nobody is going to ring your bell; no disrespect intended...

    DO BEADIES MAKE NOISES and/or COMMUNICATE?

    My 17 month old makes very faint puffing noises when I take him out of his viv. I usually scoop him up gently and slowly put him on my shoulder or under my chin for a quick sec while I'm closing back up his tank. In this position, he's close to my ear and I can hear him making this small popping...

    thought it was DEAD

    My guy does this from time-to-time which leads me to believe they do sometimes trance out. He's 17 months but he's been doing this for a least a year (brumation season or not). I think it's kinda like a bored stare, where their focus is on something else to the point they can't move until you...
