My (almost) 3 year old leo, Goji, keeps hiding under her substrate, its a carpet like substrate, and she pushes it around until she can find a bump in it that she can wiggle under, and then she crawls around under it and lays under it for long periods of time. She has also slowed her eating...

OK, now that I know what kind of bulb I need, I'm trying to find a balance between getting the best deal and getting what my beardie needs. I found this on Amazon, and its cheap but I didn't want to be "getting what I paid for". 60 WATT A19 BLACKLIGHT PET LAMP SUPRA LIFE REPTILE LIGHT BULB...

So, we got our second reptile today! A baby bearded dragon. We know we need to go get a UVB Bulb but we're not sure how to tell if its UVB or not and if it puts out a legitimate amount of UVB or not. Also, should I have a UVB bulb for my leapord gecko? I know the UVB bulb helps with D3 and all...

Mic is currently at the vet, and Im being a nervous little mommy. Turns out the bump under her eye is an abcess... and theyre doing minor surgery to remove it atm. poor lil girl. I miss her and hope shes doing alright!!! They said she should be done and ready for me to pick her up around 3 or 4...

Well, ive decided to take Mic to a vet, but its out of town and about 2 hours away... sooo... Does anyone have any tips or sugesttions on keepin her tank warm enough on the drive up there? thats my main concern. I will have to keep her in the passenger seat because my baby will be in the...

So... those of you that remember.... Mic (my 1yr-ish old female leo) had a weird bump right below her left eye. It was kinda like a goose egg, really swollen, and pushed her eyelid up so it was almost shut.. well i peeked in to say hello today (ive been out of town for a few days and my mom was...

Is it odd that Mic averages about one poop a week and sometimes doesnt eat for a few days everyonce in awhile?? Otherwise she seems totally healthy. Her tail is nice and fat and she doesnt have any signs of impaction, and seems just fine as fine can be! She does occasionally glare at me when...

Wow! Havnt been on here in awhile its been kinda nuts around here lately! I now have two babies! Mic and now an actual human one names Gabriel :D He'll be a month old on monday :) For those of you that read my posts before, Mic is doing much better atm, Eating anywhere from 8-10 worms a day...

She pooped! TWICE!! :yahoo: The first one was on saturday, it was pretty big! There was a 3 little parts, a blackish one (darker than normal anyways), a tan-ish one (meal worm color. I actually thot it was a mealy at first lol) and then the white one. The second was just about half an hour...

Ive been watching her tummy n theres no more blue marks, but she hasnt pooped for a week (see thread "watery poo help!" for pics) She was eating only 3 or 4 worms every couple days if that (this lasted for almost 2 weeks) Now shes eating about 6-10 a day again! *YAY* but...... still no...

So...... Thanksgiving is coming up and Im going to my boyfriends parents from Tuesday nite-Sunday nite. My family is going to my grandparents Wed afternoon-Sunday afternoonor nite That leaves Mic alone from Wed afternoon til sometime on sunday. :( I dont really have any friends in this town...

This is an pretty solid one from a few days ago, had a bit of a liquid mark around it on the paper towel (this ones kinda hard to see) but it was small so i figured she peed on it? This is from yesterday, not very solid, bigger mark around it where the paper towel absorbed the liquid. Any...

Here's some funner ones :D Mic says "Oh! hello!" Crawing out the top of her log Not great quality but i walked in my room one nite and i had her black heat lite on and she was neon! and i thot it was funny that she was on top of her moist hide like that lol! She jus looked at me like...

Here she is! For those of you i asked about her eye awhile back, this is it. It still swells up a bit when she sheds (which she just did), and theres also a small scab which is currently covered in skin that was shedding but got stuck to the scab im assuming. I tried helping it off with...

Does blue on tummy always = impaction?UPDATE It looks like a vein. Sorry if that sounds dumb... :S He just shed so his eating patterns have been a lil off, and therefore his pooping patterns are also slowed down, but he has a little blue line on his tummy, looks like a vein to me. Ive been...
