    Is my beardie okay in a Wire cage?

    Hello, I live in Southern CA. I originally had my 2yr old Beardie in a glass terrium. However I started fostering a few wetter species (white tree frogs, fat tail gecko, crested geck) and I noticed the humidity in my room was going up, normally her tank was 60ish(with no water bowl left inside)...

    What is wrong with my beardies chin?

    I cant tell if he might just be overweight because his belly is kind of large (my brother feeds him so I'll have words) but he has been a bit slack lately with his eating, I carried him from the cool end and put him under his heat lamp as he hadn't moved all day and hadn't touched any food (he...

    Causes of Early Death in Beardies

    My bearded dragon, Gin, died last night, and he was only a year old. I took him to the vet this week on Thursday this week to see if there was any impaction, as he hadn't been eating that much and had been sleeping a lot. They said he was fine. I didn't get a second opinion, as I thought he was...

    Missing Scales on Tail

    Heyyy so I've had my beardie Gin for a few months now and I've found some spots on his tail where the scales are missing. I don't think it's tail rot because it's still pretty flexible, but I'm still worried about him. I've found a spot under the tail that looks like old skin but I've looked...

    Unhealthy Stubbornness - NEED TIPS/ADVICE!

    Hey guys, I haven’t posted on any forums of this issue here lately but I think now is the time to open up on an issue that has been stressing me and my loved one out. On early February, 2020 our bearded dragon, Castiel started to become noticeably picky with his selection of food. At that time...

    Weird stuck shed/scale rot/scab looking thing?

    I know the title is vague and I’m sorry, but I honestly have no idea what this is. Ive had Sandy since she was a few weeks old (she’s 2 years old now) and have never had a problem, bar a year or so back when she didn’t eat for 2 weeks. Her beard scales are starting to develop a weird stuck shed...

    On his last legs..

    My little guy is 6 years old. His name is Jesse. Two weeks ago he started refusing to eat and when I would get him to eat some liquid repta boost he would throw up. He also developed a violent cough. I took him to the vet and they diagnosed him with an intestinal parasite and gave me antibiotics...

    New Owner, A little Concerned

    Hello everyone! I had been researching reptiles, and pets to get. I settled on a little beardie I named Korn. He (Since I cant tell the gender yet I will refer to the bd as he to make it more simple) is about 6 inches long so i'd assume 2-3 months old. He loves to be held, and has no issues...

    Bearded dragon tail twitching

    Hi I’m a bit worried about my beardie. I’ve had him from an egg and he’s now 7 so I’m a newbie as such. All of a sudden his tail keeps twitching rapidly, even when he’s a sleep like it’s a nerve twitch, it’s very fast and small twitching. Any ideas on why this could be happening. Thanks

    Broken finger?

    Hi guys, A few weeks ago my beardie Marshall broke off one of his nails. I figured it would just grow back and I kept an eye on it, making sure to keep it clean. However, the nail still hasn't grown back yet and the finger it broke from looks bulbous. I'm concerned it may be broken, however when...

    Dragon Puffing his beard and moving weirdly?

    So, like 5 minutes ago my dragon was sitting on his rock basking, then he started making weird motions and jerking his head upwardly, and puffing his beard. He wasn't threatened or head bobbing, as I know what he looks like when he does this. He also wriggled around opened his mouth. Any idea...

    A question about Zeros (compared to other Dragons)

    Hello Everyone, I hope I'm posting this in the right category, since it's not about a particular dragon's health. Anyway... In the next few months I will become a new dragon mommy, and I'm currently most interested in the zeros. I've heard they can have issues and genetic defects compared to...

    Bearded dragon constipation

    Hello all, I am currently caring for a young adult bearded dragon. She lives in a 60-gallon tank with a MVB during the day and a 75W night heat lamp for the evening. Her daily diet consists of the Adult Bearded Dragon food daily formula from Rep Cal. She eats a few of those every day and seems...

    Is this tail rot? Or is this just pre-shed coloration? Or just a color change?

    Hi! How have you guys been?This past Friday 12/13 and Saturday 12/14, Ember’s tail started to darken. He has done this before when he got really upset and Black Bearded. But this isn’t tail rot is it? It also looks like he’s going to shed so maybe that’s it? UPDATE: I took him to the vet today...

    Unknown Spot

    Does anyone know what this spot is on my beardies leg is? He also has one on his arm. They are not growing any bigger and I made sure it wasn't stuck shed or anything stuck on him. Someone told me it could just be a birth mark, but I don't know how true that is.
