    Just heard back from the vet..

    Thank you for all the help. Will I be needing Acidophiliz+ during the the time Im using panacur? Also should I treat the pinworms before i begin the meds for the coccidia? I dont wanna do anything that might harm my beardie.

    Just heard back from the vet..

    Maybe Im not looking in the right place, I cant seam to find panacur anywhere just information on using it for other animals. Any more help on this would be appreciated. The vet did say the coccidia count was low and recommended I focus on treating the pinworms..

    Need Advise on Setting up my Dragons Home(uvb and heat)

    I use a 150w CEH and keep it on the cool side of my 75 gallon tank and it adds about 10 degrees or so over on the warm side. Meaning when my temps are around 65 the CEH brings me up to 73-80 degrees. My beardie sleeps on the warm side every night and I don't think having the CEH on the cooler...

    Baby wont let me touch her..

    So today I took her out for a little while. I kept giving her veggies when she gaped at me and after chasing her around for a while I got her. I put her in the bath and afterward she seamed to calm down enough for me to hold her. I tried placing her in the tank but she seamed to enjoy my hands...

    Baby wont let me touch her..

    So this continues to be an issue. I just spent an hour trying to touch/pet her and like every other time she bites and takes off. She'll hide under her log or run to the back corners where she knows it's hard for me to get her. Not really sure what's left for me to do that I haven't tried. This...

    Reptiworms And Baby Beardies..

    Could I use reptiworms as a staple for a baby beardie? I've been feeding my baby 2 meals a day, the first being reptiworms and the second being crickets. The worms seam much easier and I was thinking of sticking to reptiworms for both meals of the day. Also I know the worms are naturally high in...

    Baby wont let me touch her..

    I tried that tonight and she's more aggressive than she's ever been. She's beginning to bite and instead of her laying in palm like she has been she instead kept constantly jumping from my hand. I ended up just giving up as she just wouldn't allow being picked up, or even letting me get close to...

    Baby wont let me touch her..

    So after chasing her around the viv I just picked her up for the first time. She did the exact opposite of what I expected. I cupped my hand over her and sat on my bed. Instead of taking off like I thought she would she actually seamed pretty comfortable. I began gently rubbing her back and...

    Baby wont let me touch her..

    So should I be forcing her to be picked up? I admit I'm nervous but only because of how fragile she is. When I try picking her up she runs and gapes. Should I ignore this?

    Questions On Cleaning..

    I was thinking bleach would be the best/easiest solution but was unsure how it would affect a bearded dragon. The tank has been sitting and has some corrosion from sitting. Would a brillo pad or something work to really scrub it down? If so I suppose I'd use the brillo pad than the bleach...
