    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....

Worried about my bearded dragon!

Hello, I have an almost one year old male bearded dragon. One of his front legs is swollen, I read up and thought he may not be getting enough calcium so I have been giving him tons of powdered super worms. This all started about 4 days ago. Well, it's still swollen and today I saw him lifting a back leg up? I think the other front may be starting to swell too. Plus, he was always a voracious eater, now not so much. He is still eliminating, but I'm very concerned. What can/should I do to help my guy??

Thanks
Christine

Hi Christine....it may be gout or septic arthritis. If you can find a qualified reptile vet they can do certain tests to find out. I stress that it should be a qualified vet, one that deals with bearded dragons. They might tale an X-ray or do a needle aspiration to check the joints to see if there are crystals. Here is some more info:
