Technically, you can give female dragons pinky mice after laying, but not live grown mice like in that video. There are other options I'd suggest instead.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Are you going bioactive with a gecko or another reptile?

@chrisg2419 - make sure you get captive bred worms and not from a bate shop. If collected from the wild, they can carry parasites. I know Josh's frogs sells them.

@@Midwest_Lizard_Mom leopard gecko and bearded dragon. Maybe also my hognose but he does like the Aspen bedding for burrowing so I'm not sure on him yet.

@@Midwest_Lizard_Mom Thank you!

@chrisg2419- beardy would definitely be fine. In fact, they can eat eat worms on occasion, so totally safe. My concern with the gecko is them choking if they ate it. I'm not going bioactive for my hognose at the moment. I don't think they'd care about the worms. I like aspen too, it's cleaner and I can find him. I hope this is helpful and not confusing. Also, make sure your reptile is parasites free before going bioactive.

Yes! I'm so happy she's thriving!

@@Newriverartist - that's pretty cool! I often have repels facts on my channel.

Great!

@johnthayre8088 - I'm so sorry to hear about this! Our reptiles are family to us, they steal a piece of our heart, so when they go it hurts. It's not odd to freeze them before you move. I have a relative who did that with his Iguana because he couldn't bring himself to bury them yet. And they weren't sure if they wanted to cremate. As far as health stuff, it could be a number of things. You can do everything right, but because they can mask illness, they could be suffering and you don't know. It's good that you cleaned him up before he fell asleep. It sounds like he pooed right before brumation, which is good. Since they were always black bearding, it sounds like something else was going on. They can black beard as a way to communicate, stress, or illness. Don't be hard on yourself. Take care.

@Midwest_Lizard_Mom thanks Susie pictures hurt so much to lose one which is that young no reason I know what you're saying because when my dog died last year on the same day 27th December my heart got broken and I think ever since then I just miss him so much my wife doesn't understand me at all she thinks I'm stupid just so I love animals more than I love humans I get over it after a few months but I am looking for another one I'm not going to let dobby's death stop me from having any more I love him to pieces I still will I've got memories of him I've got lots of photographs of him so Adam belt to buy a new little rankings dragon and he's it's going to be called Dobby Junior even at the moment I go to the cages and I keep calling one of the other dragons Dobby and I can't stop doing it even those names froggy or it's bam bam they both get called Dobby just hurt so much to lose one sorry for waffling on

@johnthayre8088 - I'm so sorry. 😞

If they're going into brumation you'll want to take a fecal sample to the vet to make sure they aren't sick. If clear, it could be brumation, since they're over a year old.

That's so great! Food is a good motivator! Congrats on your little friend. I'm glad it's going well.

Thanks so much for watching. I figure if this helps anyone, then I'm happy. And I try to be classy and not bash others. My goal is no drama here. 😀

@chrisg2419 - I hadn't thought of that! Good point!

@@DaveBayliss-v6d - thanks! Crickets agent the best, so if yours won't eat them, don't worry!

@ I think mine does ok he has a good variety it has taken some time to get a good balance I did try him with dried out bugs I even put them in water to make them look more alive he still did not fall for them I have noticed putting live mealworms and bugs among his rocket leaves he will eat more salad as well as the mint leaves I grow 😊

@DaveBayliss-v6d - dried bugs are bad, so it's great they didn't go for them. I have a bearded dragon diet video. I can share the link if you need it!

@@Midwest_Lizard_Mom hey I only tried him with them for a short time he was not interested at all Yoda ( bearded Dragon) has a very good appetite know he loves wild mint which I grow and mealworms have been so good although there are a lot of people out there who don’t recommend these yet I have had no problem at all ☺️

The other thing to think about is we're able to treat parasites in captivity, so if we're giving good care and feeding them well, reptiles could live longer in captivity than in the wild. Mine hasn't had parasites, but if he did, I'd get medication from his vet.

Crickets have been known to carry parasites, so some people never feed them. I do on occasion if I'm out of other bugs, since African Fat Tail gecko loves Crickets the most and has regurgitated worms at times.

That's a new one! Just be careful they don't eat any part of it.

@@cherylj7460 - lol. I never really thought of that, but it makes sense.

Awesome! I had never heard of him, but he looks silly. 😀

You should watch him

@2picesame - I'll have to check him out.

Awesome!!!

I'm glad it helped!!! Since you have a female, when they lay a clutch you'll want to make sure they all get out. They can lay bunch!!! Maybe I should do a vid on the spring about springtime stuff... including egg laying and what egg binding it.

Awe... thanks! I changed it briefly and was like... nah the purple and pink need to come back. But the person who does my hair may be moving, so if that happens, I'm not sure what I'll be doing with it.

@@cherylj7460 - African Fat Tail gecko. Oops! I should have mentioned the full name.

@@wonellwesley - i don't know what for. But you're welcome!

Congrats on being a beardy owner. I have a lot of videos on care and such. They're amazing reptiles!

@ totally subscribed I have so many questions. This is day for he was mad at me. But I made it up to him with a new light and a few buggies. He’s color changed and i wanted him to relax his spikes. We start bonding in a few days.

You'll get there! I got to hear how it's going! They have different personalities. My dude took a bit to get him used to be, but I went slow, since i knew he was skittish. Now I'm the only one he let's hold him. I'm so excited for you and your journey with your new buddy!

He hasn't yet. But he may be this year. He's showing signs of slowing down, hiding and refused bugs for the first time ever this week. I'm waiting for him to poo so I can bring a sample to the vet.

Oh okay hope can continue to make vids about kaiju!​@@Midwest_Lizard_Mom

Me too!

That's how I roll! 😉

@Midwest_Lizard_Mom 😀

It was a tough decision, but as you heard in the video, I did it for her. At the time I couldn't give her what she deserved.

@Midwest_Lizard_Mom I don't Mount I don't mean what I said to be rude to you Susie it's just the way I feel I wouldn't give any of dragons meme everything to me even if I had heart heart ship what we call it I'll struggling I would still find a way to keep them and I can understand why you're done it because you were more at work beauty up with me is I could get keeping getting my son to come and look after him because he has disabilities so so he could look after him if I went to work but some of my bosses are bad I really good you know I could like break time go home dinner time go home in the afternoon when we have a break I could go home and check them immigrate time to suppose that is the difference between me living in the UK and new living in America you yeah most of my jobs I've had been literally just down the road on the industrial state of what you call them over there don't get me wrong I love what you do to pieces and I would never do anything to stop our little friendship we got at least I hope we're friends is John signing off from the UK now about 7:30 in the morning here raining windy and the Seas a little bit rough xxx

@johnthayre8088 - thanks for the clarity, but I wasn't offended. Just explaining why I did.

Rocket is known as Arugula in the USA.

I have 4 geckos, 1 snake, and 1 beardy.

@Midwest_Lizard_Mom hi Susie it's John from UK yeah don't like snakes never will don't like spiders or anything creepy Crawley like that don't mind repeated dragons never had a gecko don't know how to look after I suppose going on the internet and reading more about them I could get on with one I got two rescues for my son woman threaten to put them down the toilet and drown them when she walked into the pet shop where we were who just deal with Reptiles and she got reported for what she said to the what we call the RSPCA what she fought she was buying when she bought them from someone else was was two females two males in the end it all worked out they were all males she was going to kill them and me in the wife walked in while we why we were there when she was talking about it and my pet shop owner Donna turn and said do we want him so he run harrier my son and he's misses and they took both for them in and they are surviving to this day and they have grown into lovely little geckos I think it's what you call leopard geckos I'm not sure yeah I think the leopard geckos and my son Harry gave one to my son-in-law because he lost his bearded dragon last year she died on him I think he used to call a flops she was about 19 years old he's very much like me in the way of that men shouldn't cry but you know broke she broke his heart when she died yada from a little baby stop waffling on because I just keep on going and going I would love you wait to see some more of your videos on I would geckos or on the bearded dragons thanks xxx

I think I know which content creator you're referring to. He said something about that in a vid. So ridiculous he got in trouble for feeding insects. And yeah, I showed part of the chase, but left out the catch because no one needs to see that. So sad.

@Midwest_Lizard_Mom hi really don't know yins and out of UA-camr don't really care I don't do it myself but I just watch but they seem to have rules for one rules for another yeah if you do something wrong you get demonetized or whatever it's called for doing something silly like the English blow over here he's like a professor

The bloke's been to college learn all these degrees and everything else and yet he gets demonetised just because he's put Kelsey powder on Beatles or whatever it was and fed them to his beardy dragons you know you don't seem right

​@@Midwest_Lizard_Momsaw that video too, the algorithm gods are mad I tell you.

I believe someone complained because the bugs were shook in a container to distribute the calcium powder on them before feeding, which is ridiculous. You have to do that to coat them. And your then immediately feeding them. It's not like they're torturing the bugs.

@chrisg2419 - i don't have exp with leopard geckos to make a vid; otherwise, I would happily! Here's a vid link to Leopard Gecko Talks' video on leopard geckos brumating. I hope you find this helpful. ua-cam.com/video/Phj2zSPn8Zs/v-deo.htmlsi=paWNzlTMYot61M6v

@Midwest_Lizard_Mom ok, no problem. I just thought I'd ask 🙂

Thanks for asking! I like getting questions and requests! Keep them coming! 😀

@@Midwest_Lizard_Mom will do 👍

@chrisg2419 ! A creator i follow did a video on brumation in general. She does talk about leopard geckos in it and thought I'd share the link for you! ua-cam.com/video/FL7HWbXC7HY/v-deo.htmlsi=YNmtSaw-SKxFDpMO

It's not often I catch them doing this! Geckos are usually sneaky.

@@Midwest_Lizard_Mom you did good 😊

@@DaveBayliss-v6d thanks!

@ hey can I ask you what is the best thing to clean Yodas teeth with please thanks ☺️

@@DaveBayliss-v6d - is Yoda a bearded dragon or a gecko?

Yay! I'm glad you saw it! And thanks for the questions! 😀
