    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....

my female bearded dragon, about 2 years old I noticed has a swollen foot. She puts pressure on it and is able to walk well. It looks very different from the other though.
She has adequate space, her substrate is newspaper, also has the right heat bulb reaching the right temperature and uvb tube. She also has a great appetite.

That foot is currently in shed as well..

It looks as if she may have some infection going on there...can you wash the foot well using warm (not hot) water and an old toothbrush...then look to see if there is any injury to the foot, toes or nails.....if you can't see anything i would advise a trip to the vet as if it is not treated he could lose the foot or die of systemic infection

Do you know how long that leg has been needing to shed? if its been a long time and there are layers of shed, it might just be restricting blood flow to the foot. Which is bad. I'd do some crazy bathing and see if that shed comes off, and maybe the swelling will go down.

the tail looks like it needs to shed to.
