Is my set up for my bearded dragon good? (See attachment)

Thanks for your question about Smaug, and thanks for the photo as well! I think that you have a good start to your set up, and that we can tweak a few items. First, your lighting situation appears adequate - I see a UVB light (please change this bulb every 4-6 months), a basking light, and a ceramic heat bulb. I would ensure that your temperatures are appropriate for this species, and that you are monitoring them using digital thermometers (I think that you see both a digital and analog thermometers currently) at the level of Smaug. Analog thermometers are inaccurate, so I don't recommend using them (also, they are high up on the sides of the enclosure, so they wouldn't be giving an accurate temperature read for Smaug). For the cage furniture that you have, I like that you have places for Smaug to climb and hide. However, I would recommend having a hide on both the warm side of the enclosure and the cool side so that Smaug has choices. Same for the climbing structures. I may have misse

Hi our bearded dragon seems very pale and looks like trying to poo and coughing, she was fine in the morning, i took her out to walk around then when i got back she was blowing her beard as if she was coughing or trying to vomit. I took her to vet bu

Confirm proper temperature and humidity. Incorrect environmental parameters may lead to respiratory infections. Provide adequate UVB lighting or unfiltered sunlight also. UVB light is critical to vitamin D metabolism and general health. Dragons cannot vomit and coughing may indicate an upper respiratory infection. This can be serious if not treated appropriately and promptly. Legally, we are prohibited from providing doses for medications in the absence of a physical exam and VPCR (veterinarian-patient-client relationship). Your veterinarian should be able to consult with a reptile specialist via phone or online and can then dispense or administer medication if indicated.

My 4month bearded dragon is weak having trouble climbing in the cage. I am assuming it is from lack of calcium and D3 because I hadnt been giving him supplements. I did just get some Repta-Boost. Being that he can't climb should I leave him in neutr

If he is weak, then yes, remove any climbing branches to prevent falls. You can soak him in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte. This will provide warmth and may treat or prevent minor dehydration. Repta-Boost is an excellent supplement, however you should still provide a powdered multivitamin and calcium supplement. Also, replace the UVB light if it is old.

what size cage does an adult bearded dragon need? what substrate should I use? is bioactivity possible with bearded dragons?

Choose the largest cage your space and budget will allow. At minimum, a 55 gallon enclosure should be considered. Acceptable substrates include slate, reptile carpet, decomposed granite or large gravel. Yes, setting up a bio-active environment for beardies is possible. It will take a bit of research and effort to get it right.

I just recently adopted a baby bearded dragon who is trying to pull out of failure to thrive he is a little bloated and constipated trying to give him water and Emeraid IC .07ml seem to be pulling out of it for a while but past 3 days is not as inter

Confirm proper enclosure temperatures. Young dragons need warmer temps than adults. You can review care and feeding at the link below. http://www.anapsid.org/bearded.html Soak him in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte for 20-30 minutes daily. This will provide warmth and hydration. be careful when feeding or administering water by syringe, you can easily cause him to aspirate fluids into his lungs which will cause respiratory infection. Fluker's Repta Boost is another supplement that can be used if the EmerAid is not sufficient. Submit a stool sample to your veterinarian to diagnose intestinal parasites.
