    Beardie tongue

    Recently, I noticed my beardie would chew a superworm a few times and then spit it out with a lot of saliva, and had what looked like a cut on her tongue. When I looked up what this could be I chocked it up to being a superworm bite and decided to stop feeding her super worms for a bit to see if...

    Growth

    So my bearded dragon, female, very roughly estimated to be 10 months old, hasn’t grown an inch in a few months, and only grew about 2 inches since December. She did have two types of parasites over the winter but those have been taken care of. Her growth definitely had to have been stunted from...

    Tiny bugs found in dubia roach shipment

    I found these tiny crawling bugs in my recent shipment of dubia roaches. I haven’t seen them before and I didn’t notice them until after I fed my beardie. Does anyone know what these are and if they’re harmful to bearded dragons?

    My Beardie accidentally ate a superworm beetle

    I was feeding Blaze (my beardie) superworms and one of them got away from blaze and grew into a beetle. Today, I saw the beetle in her cage and squished it and heard a crunch (I’m not a superworm breeder). Then when I was going to get paper towels to pick up the beetle, it was still alive and...

    Bearded dragon gender and feeding

    Hi here’s my beardie. I think it may be a male but not sure it’s my first one. How do I get it to eat its greens? I offer and it’s not interested and I leave it in there until lights out. The temp is around 105-110. It takes the roaches and crickets just fine. Any advice? Other helpful tips for...

    New Beardy owner

    I am a new Beardy owner as of last night. I did research before buying, so I feel pretty good about it, mostly. I’ve seen a lot of debate in the BD community about feeding schedule for baby dragons. One side says 3-5 times a day, whatever they can eat in 10-15 minutes. The other side says twice...
