    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....

Why has my Beardie stopped shedding.

Hello all, I hope somebody can help me. I got a Bearded Dragon 11 months ago as a hatchling. He has grown at an unbelievable rate. He used to shed all of the time. It seemed he would be looking great one day, and shed the next. Then, a week or two, then shed. My wife asked me when the last time he shed was just the other day, and I looked in my notebook, and the last time he shed was just after Thanksgiving, and it wasn't a full shed at that; it was just legs and tail.

Now, he has never tuwned down a meal. He eats his veggies at all times, and he eats several types fo insects. I breed my own insects, and I gutload them. Hell, I spend over a thousand dolars per year for the feed for my insects alone. He east mealworms, waxworms, silkworms, crickets, and superworms. So, what is it? Why has he all of a sudden slowed on his shed? My hypothesis was the time of year. Does that sound right? Any answers or guidance would be appreciated.
 
Once they reach a certain size, the amazing growth they experience slows down. I would not be concerned about it so long as he is eating well and having bowel movements.

My 2.5 year old males have not shed in ages.
