Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Shaking baby bearded dragon
I just got a baby bearded dragon yesterday. This is my first time having one because I told myself I wouldn’t ever get one because my sister had gone through 3 and they all died. Although she didn’t know much about them and the pet store people only helped by telling the wrong things for them to die. A few minutes ago my bearded dragons whole body shook and his back legs came together and his back side was kinda in the air. After this he was breathing heavily. This is the worst I’ve seen. I’ve never had babies only adults so I don’t know what they might do. At the pet shop they didn’t give him calcium nor did they measure the crickets before letting him eat them therefore he could be constipated. When I pick him up two days ago to hold he was shaking. My mom convinced me he was just scared because the other day he didn’t do that with my dad. But when I got home I searched up and read in other forums that a shaking dragon could mean early signs of MBD. I’ve ran into this before. It resulted in the death of my chameleon because of his previous owners giving him inadequate care. The vet even couldn’t do anything he was so far along. As in his elbows were like boomerangs (that bend shape is what I’m trying to picture in here). These owners of the pet store don’t listen. I’ve told them before of them having a gecko who had MBD he was so bad he was basically crawling on his boomerang elbows (not a joke just the only way I can describe it). I recently took in a water frog from them (for free) because I seen the parrotfish was eating him (big chunks taken out) and the lady was “kind” enough to give him to me. I also know the people didn’t have the dragon on a UVB light. After this fit he had, though, I’m considering he might have seizures. He isn’t eating which could just be because he’s in a new environment or because he’s constipated or has parasites or both. I have two dusted small crickets in his tank now. He has his UVB light on along with his basking light. I’ll also be getting him a heat pad for night time. He also has a bowl that looks like a rock filled with water. Although I’ve learned from my bearded dragon that they don’t always know water is in there to drink so I’ll put water on his mouth. He’s a pretty cool dude and I hope he doesn’t die on me because I’ve fallen in love with him during the not even a full day that I’ve had him 😂
