    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Canned or Not?!?

So, at first my beardie wasnt eating and i heard form a friend that he could have internal parasites...i was like WTF :hot: ....and then i heard about the amazing parazap...i bought some and gave it to my three beardies and it was like magic two of them had parasites but the one that stopped eatin in the first place didnt...then i read up on it and there were many different reasons why he could not be eattin... and he is gettin way to skinny?.?.? And i want to keep weight on him so i want to get silkies because he loves his worms and they are the most nutritious...So the point is should i get canned or live silkies.????? :shrug01: which would be better???? HELP!!!!!!!
 
Live food is always more nutritious than canned, and if he isn't eating to begin with, he's much more likely to eat something that is moving and wiggling than something that isn't.

If he's not eating to the point that he is getting "way too skinny", and you have all of the husbandry correct, he NEEDS to see a vet.
 
I probably over exaggerated a bit, but i will asap....its just he use to eat like a monster and now he only eats every two to three days....
 
That could very well be it. But I still would not hesitate to at least get a fecal done if nothing else. This is also about the age where they may cut back eating as frequently.
