    Sick Bearded Dragon

    It hurts me to write this. My bearded dragon about 3 months ago caught MBD. My first visit to the vet they told me a calcium shot and just further care for my dragon would be the only option. Regrettably her condition got worse and now all four arms are swollen and her front left arm the bone in...

    Pattern or Scale Rot?

    I don’t know if I’m just over anxious because my beardie is sick, but now I’m wondering if his patterning is okay or if he’s been getting scale rot too? I feel terrible. I attached a picture, he’s a bit dark because he just got a bath and was stressed.

    Possible brumation? Is my dragon okay?

    Hello! Me and my fiance adopted a 3-4 year old named Lucy around June this year. She has always usually been a bit weary about us handling her, but likes to be on our shoulders once she realizes she's stable with us and is gradually remaining calm more and more each time. She also loves being in...

    Hi! I got my beardie in the beginning of October when he was a little less than a month old so he's now around 3 or 4 months.

    Please give me advice on the situation with my dragon at the moment!!

    I had this bearded dragon years ago and couldn’t care for it anymore, so we gave it to a friend. Recently that friend passed away and we got the lizard back, they had the lizard for about 1-2 years. And when we got the lizard back, I over heard that the lizards tail was “cracking”. I got worried...

    Hello! I’m new to owning a bearded dragon. I adopted Fitz back in March and he’s been perfectly healthy. He is about 7-8 years old. Last week he started to show a scary behavior.

    My beardy is definitely sick, can’t afford vet.

    So we have a two year old beardy that has recently become lethargic, has decreased appetite and now isn’t eating but still pees and poops. His tail is possibly rotting and I fear he has an infection. The temps are all good. Anyone have any suggestions of how we can help him?

    To start, I'm kind of a newbie with bearded dragons. I thought I was doing a good job with her, but I don't think I am anymore and I feel terrible. We've had her for almost two and a half years and no problems up until now. I noticed a few days ago that her eyes were crusty and decided to see...
