    Broken glass side wall

    I had hoped that would work, but I wasn't sure if it was sufficient enough. Thanks!

    Broken glass side wall

    While cleaning the tank today, the door decided to slam closed and break. There were some tiny glass shards inside the tank on the carpet, which was immediately removed. I also cleaned it all down to ensure no other shards remained. The glass feels fairly smooth still, but I was worried that he...

    Giving medication

    I run the medication syringe over my dragons lips until he opens. It was harder the first couple time, but I think he's better now because the medication helps him, and he know it. The first couple times I had to hold him with one hand on my lap, and use my finger to gently get him to open his...

    Shedding advice

    You don't want to give too many baths. When my dragon was young, the vet recomended every other day while he is actively shedding (no more than a week). That was recommended becuase my dragons skin cut off the blood flow to the tip of his tail. Now that he is older, I use on de-shedding mist I...

    New guy not eating alot

    Some dragons never eat as much as they should. My guy just refused to eat as much aseveryoe else claimed they should. Even to this day (3 years later), he is not a big eater. He is a healthy weight and overall heathy, so don't stress too much. Mine also prefers salad over bugs. Definitely a plus...

    Toenail issue?

    Yes, we do have a grass hammock that he has not had issues with in the 4 years we have had him. We tried the mesh ones and he refused to use them. I also use tank carpet, a few slate rocks, and a few resin and plastic items.

    Toenail issue?

    My boy, Collins, has a weird long toenail on his left front foot, thumb area. It doesn't seem to bother him at all, but it doesn't look right. Does anyone know what could cause this to happen? He is about 4 years old. It has been here for a few days, and doesn't seem better, or worse. Thanks!

    First Baby Beardie

    Dubiaroaches.com is also a great site I use to order my insects. Iae heard you can grind up some insects and use that to flavor-coat greens to make them a little more appealing. I never tried it since my boy loves his greens. Good luck, and Luna is gorgeous!

    My Beardie hates me

    Never feel too bad about your dragon hating you. Mine can't seem to stand me, and he has been that since I got him at 6 months old (he is 3 now) lol. They definitely have their own personalities. Just keep working with them, and eventually they will get a little better. They may never be the...

    Eye infection?

    Update: My beardie had a little build up on his eye, either from corneal shed, or from a scratch. The vet removed it and gave us some antibiotic eye drops to keep him from getting an infection. He was not too happy about the vet situation, but at least we got it figured out. Thanks!

    Eye infection?

    Thanks! I didn't see him scratch his eye, but it wouldn't surprise me if he did. There is nothing in his tank that could scratch him, so I would assume his nail. I agree that it looks like dried blood, but I wasn't 100% sure. He is going to the vet today, but I do have the honey. At first it...

    Eye infection?

    Yes, a long tube UV fixture. I have cage carpet which I clean at minimum weekly expending on how dirty he gets it.

    Eye infection?

    I recently noticed my beardie had a crust on his lower lid. I had hoped it was shed and would come off on its own. However, it has been several days and it is still there. The first day I noticed it, he had his eye mostly closed, but since then it is fully open. It hasn't gotten worse, it just...
