He seems adventurous. Do you take him out and handle him daily?

A two-dimensional challenge for a 3 dimensional Leo. How long did it take him to give up?

AB, now that is interesting. It sounds like an osmotic imbalance. Kidney failure can be involved in this problem, it seems. I’m going to take a leap here, and suggest that too much water available is not the problem. But something is causing water to be retained, perhaps. On the other hand, a plugged-up frog seems to have very similar presenting symptoms. So how does an owner get a sense of water retention, or poop retention? I must admit I know little about amphibian kidney problems. Any experience with this as a pet owner?

Gosh, it’s very hard to say from that brief description. First off, has she pooped recently. If not, recently, then when is the last time you are certain of. If you are totally uncertain, because sometimes they hide their business in a burrow and then dig another burrow, making it really hard to know, a honey bath may be the first step. It does no harm and many members have noted great improvement in their frogs after three days of baths.

That’s funny about autocorrect. I was wondering if he was on steroids. So how is it that his mother was NG? Was in an article on chameleons or some other topic?

He sure is! I take it he has settled in nicely.

Always fun to chat with a fellow enthusiast. When the big enclosure is done and all set up, we would love it if you would post some pix of it, along with any observations about the building process and the design you made along the way.

And get bigger he will! You probably need to start building a custom enclosure now, unless you already have one.

Insectman is correct, and they look really funky during molt. When kept in a coop, extra cleaning is need during that time. But once molt is over, they look all shiny and new.

That’s funny and not unexpected. Most beardies grow to absolutely love their baths. Some really never take to it, however. They are so individual in their personalities its always fun to hear whose pets are doing what!

Great close-up! We don’t get a lot of those on the site. How old is Jasper?

[Zoodulcis]

Cute! What’s her name and how did she take to the water?

[Zoodulcis]

Begorra!! Love the hat and the attitude. Here’s wishing himself a happy belated St. Pat’s.

[Zoodulcis]

Nothing like good family programming!

That is truly hilarious. I wonder if she does it because otherwise her legs would have to hang down and maybe that would be less comfortable. She does seem to be posing for you, though.
