One tip worth adding is that if you have a dragon with metabolic bone disease that doesn't want to eat, is asking yourself if the tank is too big. I kept my eldest beardie in a 55 gallon, and the disease affects his legs and tail (though the tail could be unrelated but he's a rescue so we aren't sure) and I tried many different methods to get him to eat, all of them failing. He didn't eat for 3 months, and even if he ate one worm it was cause for celebration since he refused to eat greens at the time. I came across a video where I learned that metabolic bone disease was a thing, and it was suggested that downgrading the tank may help, since it's stressful on the beardie to move around in a large space when either it's unnecessary or just very difficult. Taking this advice proved to be the solution for me, moving him into a 20 gallon long certainly reduced the space he could move around in, but there was immediate improvement, and he's now eating regularly, and eats greens too

my beardie has been with us for a few months now, and almost immediately when she got home, she got a parasite. we got her medicated and everything was fine. then she caught the same parasite and we got her medicated again. in the present day, we confirmed the virus yet again, but the breeder said not to medicate her because she may get overmedicated. my mum is basically panicking, and me and my family really just dont know what to do. all i can tell is: she has a virus, and we have a dog and i have a little sibling. i'm not sure if we should just give up or not. can you give u s advice?

My male beardie is 9 months old now. I've been starting to worry because he only eats once every few days now. He has no interest in bugs(roaches) and actually seems to want to escape his feeding tub when its feeding time. I can occasionally get him to eat a bite or two of collard greens. Hes still active and runs all over the place. This has been going on for the last couple of weeks. Any ideas or tips?

I will buy a ne UBV light this week her basking is at 100 to 95 degrees, or she could be reproducing eggs by herself without the male idk she don’t want to eat😢

Hi, thanks for the video. Our beardie is about 2 months old. Have owned him for about 3 weeks and he shedded his entire back. He has not had anything to eat for about 1 week now. Is this normal during a shed? We noticed his tail and hind legs are shedding too. He looks thinner and is lethargic and not wanting bask. Is this normal?

I just bought my beardie on Sunday and she’s only eaten maybe 7-8 meal worms and 2 crickets since I’ve had her. She’s still small and I’m worried she’s going hungry. Her basking spot is always at 112. She’s in an exo terra large wide 75 gallon tank.

@@Me-uf7vk hey! So, my dragon just needed time to get adjust and adapt to her new environment. After the first 1.5 week, she got more comfortable and her appetite ramped up. I also handled her a lot and hand fed her to get her used to me and be comfortable. Apparently, my dragon does NOT like wax worms or crickets. I read that Dubias are the more nutritious food for dragons and more ideal. Once she had a taste of dubias, she ate like crazy!!! It’s her favorite. She goes through 200 dubias a week. But I would say, to try dubias (I’m 100% sure that yours will eat it), handle yours a lot, make sure that the temp is at 115-130. And appropriate UVB lighting. I read that if it’s not hot enough, they will also not eat. Also, if yours isn’t a water drinker, put them in a warm bath for 15 min and they will eventually drink from there. Please keep me updated!
