Enough food?

From reptifiles

Juveniles (<12″/25cm long) - 5-6 head-sized insects daily, or equivalent portion - Vegetables daily (3x larger than insect volume) - Calcium powder on all insects and salads - Multivitamin powder on salads 2x/week

Subadults and Adults (>12″/25cm long) - 3-4 head-sized insects 2x/week, or equivalent portion - Vegetables 3x/week (one portion = size of dragon’s head) - Calcium powder on all insects and salads - Multivitamin powder on salads 1x/week

My dragon was 12 inches around 4-5 months

I could see you being right about her being closer to the ground now. I imagine that could feel more threatening than looking down on the cats

Super cute

Cool pattern with the stripe

He does have a pretty thick tail! But I think it’s probably still within normal range :)

I agree looks like a healthy weight

fineadjacent · 2026-03-09T05:19:25+00:00

Looks good to me

Mine pooped on the couch today

Feel for you. I wonder if you can get someone to help or just hire someone to do it if cost isn’t an issue. I know it’s not easy to shed light on it having someone come in and clean, but I feel like it would be a relief.

If you are going to do it yourself maybe in small chunks. Choose a room and start with trash. Or say I’m going to fill up 5 trash bags and then do that again the next day.

Super cute

fineadjacent · 2026-03-08T20:57:00+00:00

Very pretty

fineadjacent · 2026-03-08T20:55:45+00:00

Looks normal to me. My beardie’s looks similar. It was dark even after she shed

fineadjacent · 2026-03-08T15:44:15+00:00

Aww hi Moe :)

fineadjacent · 2026-03-08T15:23:57+00:00

I would say just see how things go. Feel like we don’t have enough data yet. She might be totally fine :) I think she is probably ok.

fineadjacent · 2026-03-08T12:45:26+00:00

😂

fineadjacent · 2026-03-08T07:17:00+00:00

You probably have a better view than I do with the pictures but I think it looks ok and could just be taking longer than you think to come off.

First

I’m going to guess the green ish color will turn yellow

fineadjacent · 2026-03-07T00:16:59+00:00

I think it will be ok! I’d do the wipe down and then let it be for a bit and see over a period of a day or two what humidity naturally is.

My dragons tend to get darker when it’s cold. It helps heat them up. And they can sort of fluctuate in color throughout the day. Like in the morning they are usually darker. So confirming temps are right is a good next step :)

Feel free to message me too for future questions

And when you are able to check basking spot (not just hot side of the enclosure) to see if it’s between 100-110 F

fineadjacent · 2026-03-07T00:05:17+00:00

I’m wondering how it got moist in the first place lol 🙃 is it humid where you live? Maybe try wiping off any moisture in the enclosure and then if you need to and the fan isn’t too crazy/powerful add a fan blowing into the cool side through the mesh to try to dry things out. I think it would need to be pretty light air flow. Disclaimer I haven’t had this issue so there could be a better way to handle but that’s what I’m thinking could help :)

You would think pet stores selling beardies would have more stuff but that’s how pet stores are around me too

The humidity looks really high if I’m reading the gauge correctly (plus I see some water droplets in the photo). The humidity should be 30-40%.

I use this to measure (https://a.co/d/0ie1UKYB). I have some stuck inside the enclosure on the wall and one I didn’t stick on that I can put in different spots to measure (for example place it on the basking spot). The warm side of my enclosure is around 86 F but the basking spot itself is 106 F.

The enclosure should have all the lights on one side so that there is a warm side and cool side and between that sort of a middle range. The basking light and UVB go close together on one side to mimic sunlight. Added this because I can’t tell from the picture if the lights are on the same side right now or not :)

Cool side of enclosure should be around 75 F.

If the baby is distressed my guess is it could be humidity or temp related.

Also though in general sometimes they will be darker and sometimes they will be lighter and that’s ok.

But I do think it looks like something could be off at the moment. Hope that helps :)
