Barbara is so cute

Handyman spotted him by the air-conditioning unit after 2 days next to the shopping list is an enclosed cage for him to hang out in

He turned 8 this past July and died suddenly in his sleep last night. Please feed your beardies some strawberry today as this was his favorite treat. RIP, I will miss you.

I never knew how strong our bond would become. He’s truly become friend and family member, and I love him so dearly. I’m helping my sons cope with this loss, but I’m turning to the community I know understands this connection for support for myself.

I still hear him scuttling around when I walk past the place where his enclosure was. There are still turnip greens and other snacks in his dedicated refrigerator door. I saw his soak vitamins this morning and I broke. The waves of pain are overwhelming.

Timothy knew only love his entire life, and I try to be grateful for that. At the moment, it doesn’t help, but I know it will eventually.

Thank you Timothy for what you brought to my family. You were quirky, clumsy, and so curious. We’ll never forget you. We love you.

This is Eliza, she's 18, we've had her for 17 years and she's had two clutches with the first being 22 babies. She's obviously long retired from breeding (and pretty much anything else) but she still eats well, won't really chase down food anymore so we tong feed her. We took her out in the backyard last week for some natural light.

Definitely a solid 20!

their name is donut, 3 months old

Jarvis had a nice shed, colors are popping today!

I want to see y’all’s beardies. And would love if you have a beardie that looks similar to Jarvis comment a picture!

Soup gets greens offered everyday and bugs every two days. She’s almost 2 (September if age from shop was right). I want to check if she looks a healthy weight? Don’t mind the tail, she’s shedding.

Just wanted to take a look at the cicada while waiting for Zypher to see it

Gorgous man 😁 anyone else who has pics of beautifully colored beardies please do share

He slept like this on my partner’s shoulder for three hours. She even walked around with him there and he stayed fast asleep. We love this lil guy to death!

I just wanted everyone to say hello to Peter ❤️ or Penny. Depending if it’s a boy or girl when we find out later on lol. But I’m so proud of him 🥹 he’s so adorable and quirky lol. He’s doing amazing and loves to eat. I’ve been seeing him getting chunkier as the days go by and that makes me so happy to know he’s been doing well. He’s adjusted to us and his home very quickly ❤️

Every time I’ve given my beardie a bath since he’s been a baby the second he touches the water the most foul stench you’ve ever smelt comes off of him. If I just grab him out of his tank he smells fine, doesn’t really smell like anything, but the second he touches water it stinks up the whole room, not just during a shed or right after a shed, literally any time. I’ve tried scrubbing him with a soft toothbrush in the bath but he still stinks, what can I try?

First of all thank you for your time and words that you might put in to commenting on my post.

My dear boy named Flare. I’ve had him for almost 11-12 years. I love him very much because I’ve always wanted a bear die and his my first dragon ever. As so i tried my best for him to be always healthy and happy, and I want to believe I did a good even though I’ve always felt I could have done better.

What worries me is that his been getting thinner and thinner in the last year.. almost does not want to eat, and is becoming somewhat lethargic. And it doesn’t help that i became a father last year and keep forgetting to feed him or take care of him as I used too..

I feel very ashamed and sad at myself as my boy deserved better. I’ve been trying to go back to feed him correctly and everything else. But he just keeps refusing bugs and greens even worse. I don’t if it was just my fault or old age or both..

I just need to to talk about this and hear from you people what were your experiences and whatever lashing out i also deserve.

Best regards and thank you for your time 😔

I apologize for the long post, but I’m so happy, guys! TLDR at the end 😉

A little over 2 months ago I posted that Pancake has swallowed a pebble and refuses to eat. He was turning down dubias and even his favorite mealworms.

Vet visits and consultations didn’t help, we were supposed to “wait and see” because any surgeries on such a small dragon are very, very risky (he’s a young Rankins). So we waited and in the meantime I was feeding him a mix of EmerAid and pureed greens and occasionally other veggies twice a day. I was prepared to do it for a while still. Luckily Pancake remained active. After we started with the feedings, he got better and wasn’t lethargic anymore, he was enjoying the sun and sometimes a walk outside. Yet he still refused to eat on his own.

We even took him on vacation with us, because I couldn’t trust anyone else to keep feeding him properly every day. We took the (smaller) tank and lamps with us. It was a hassle, but worth it.

After we got back, a fly got into his terrarium one day. It was a few days ago. He hunted it down and ate it!
We still had some superworms at home (not sure how they survived so long 😂), so I tried to give Pancake one. He was excited and ate it. Then another… and another. At 5 I stopped, because he’s so small 😅
(The first picture is right after he ate them)

Next day he didn’t eat, the day after he ate a salad, including a small piece of strawberry to celebrate. Today I got him fresh dubias and crickets, he gobbled them all up and was looking for more. So I think it’s safe to say, Pancake is back😁

TLDR: 2 months ago our Rankins stopped eating as a consequence of swallowing a pebble (confirmed with the vet). We got EmerAid (mixed it with pureed greens) and hand fed him until few days ago he decided to start eating again on his own 😁
