    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    Wow, thanks. I'll give those a read. I realize that, with the exception of outside bugs, that my little guy has it pretty good, and i'm not going to kick myself too much. I still take him outside but with a full tummy so that he doesn't eat, and I guard him like a hawk to make sure he doesn't...

    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    Damn. I buy romaine for myself bc I thought that it was better than iceberg. I used to give it my ducks bc they liked it better than corn feed. I had put a lot of stock in Romaine. I'd be lying to say I'm not disappointed. Anyway, the store dusts them with Calcium, I can see that there is...

    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    Hmmm....Well, I give him UVA and B, and I have a heater for him. As well, it's about eighty outside. His ambient temp is close to 100F, but I am a little afraid that something is going to short out or catch fire so I keep it a around 95 ish under the lights. He poops every twelve hours. We've...

    Ok, I can't edit my previous post. God hope that other newbies will read the whole page. Sorry about that.

    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    Oh God! Beetles kill them? Well. Ok then. I guess that I'll have to take away his outdoor walks. It is going to break my heart. He actually runs up onto my bed around one o'clock now. That's the time I take him out. He's going to miss it. :( Poor little Bob. I'm going to Edit my previous...

    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    The reason I ask, is that I think going outside is what makes him hungry. And I can't very well stop a lizard tongue in action every time he sees a bug. I know that I could try, but I probably wouldn't succeed, so I guess what I'm asking is, Are you saying that outside bugs are lethal? Or just...

    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    Why is eating outside bugs a no, no? I've never read that anywhere. But, I mean, if you say so....I"ll believe you. I knew it was a bit wreckless with the floss leash, but you're thinking it was tight when it was actually just loose enough for me to have a chance to scare away some flying...

    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    I actually figured out an easier way to do this, should any other person be faced with a co-dependant lizard in the future. Without having to starve Bob, I simply put him on the front lawn with a dental floss leash around his leg, in case of the errant owll that might be hungry. After twenty...

    Continued Lazyness/Lethargy?

    Hi there nice beardie people! I'm new to having a lizard, and had actually posted something about my lizard before I realized how naturally lazy they are. And so, I got used to how lazy my dragon was at that point. The problem is is that he's gotten worse. At first, I would feed him by hand...

    Out of the Box Thinking, Literally.

    (I had actually forgotten where I had posted this. Duh!) So, yes, I know about glass filtering out UV and all that. But I have lights. The window is mainly a means for him to look at something compelling. (He told me he doesn't like watching cable's Fall Lineup with me. Says he'll need HBO and...

    My beardie is either smoking pot OR?........

    Yikes! Well, I went to the next town up for about two days, leaving him with an "enthusiast" that doesn't have the same crazy fear of enclosure that I do. And, upon returning, he is still lazy, and still sweet and adorable. He still eats without trying awfully hard, and he doesn't seem to be any...

    Out of the Box Thinking, Literally.

    I hate keeping animals in tanks. I have my bird in a diaper running around my house, I have a toad that lives on my dresser and watches over me all day, and my dragon lives on the window sill with the anole, and one of the leopard geckos. (My frog empire, on the other hand, are mostly in tanks...

    My beardie is either smoking pot OR?........

    Oh, and here's the dragon and anole together. On their branch. I realize that taking a picture into the sun with noon day light backlighting it doesn't make for greatly detailed subjects, but I have no good way around that. Anyway, I guess that I just wanted to show off my little guys. I'll...

    My beardie is either smoking pot OR?........

    And here's Bob (Drake, I don't know which is better), in a tree. I take him out a lot. So that he gets ACTUAL sunlight. I do it with all the animals, and the only one that ever hopped away was a very whiley chubby frog that now lives on my back porch. Walks are good for them, right?

    My beardie is either smoking pot OR?........

    Oh, here, my picture is working today. Good, this is the edge of the shelf where the light meets the window. I took the pic without the basking branch and stuff to give a better gauge of how wide against the sill that it is. He has plenty of room there. So, usually there's a branch and an anole...
