    Yoda is too picky

    Yoda is 3-year old male that I've had since he was about 6 months old. Since I've had him he's been a very good eater and was a joy to watch him during live feedings. Lately (the past 6-7 months) he's not been eating well and is getting quite thin. He still has good energy and does not seem...

    Newbie needs help getting beardie to be comfortable

    Hello! Jed and I are new to the forum. I got him 2 weeks ago this Saturday from Petco! For the first couple days he was super chill, didn't mind me handling him at all, and consistently let me feed him. He even slept on top of his log the first night. Then about 5 days into having him he hissed...

    Looking for advice on enclosure, behavior

    I have a bearded dragon named Nigel. I believe he’s about 4 years old. I inherited him from a neighbor in January. I have a 40 gallon terrarium, and a 10.0 reptisun uvb bulb that’s 24”. I also have a basking light that provides uva. Also a heat emitter (which is useless I think). I would like...

    Socializing

    Hello I have an 8 month old beardie, growing perfectly and in great health. I'm still trying to get him used to being handled. I can hold him for a few minutes, but if my grip is loose enough he tries to bolt, and I have yet to completely dragon proof my house, so I can't just let him run...

    Odd Behaviors: Scratching, Running Into Walls, Hiding in Corners?

    Hey all, I wanted to ask you about an odd behavior that I've noticed in my year-old female beardy. I adopted her from a previous owner about three months ago (with whom she was very neglected, poor husbandry, etc.). Fortunately, I have spent a great deal of time with her, hand-training, and...
