    Super worms?

    I’ve been feeding smaug (around 3 months old) superworms. He loves them, but I’ve been hearing stories of beardies getting addicted to them and not eating regular food after a while and I’ve been wondering how many it’s appropriate to feed him per week?

    Gout in beardies

    Has anyone experienced a beardie with gout issues? Mine won’t eat on his own anymore (unless it’s mealworms, but I’m trying to keep him off of these since this is what I believe caused it to start with) and his back legs are not moving normally. They either drag, or, when he does move them it...

    HELP! Is Calibrachoa safe for my beardie to eat?

    Help! My bearded dragon ate some Calibrachoa x hybrid leaves while we were outside in my garden. He is typically very picky so it really caught me off guard. He got maybe two mouthfuls of the leaves. It's related to petunias, but I'm still not sure it's safe. PLEASE HELP.

    Weird solid in beardie poop

    There is a weird splinter/tendril-like solid in my bearded dragon's poop. Nothing she's eaten recently seems likely to be the source, though I recently brought collard greens and bok choy into her diet. Her temps are fine, and she has plenty of heat and basking spots to digest. There's no smell...
