At last, here is my final installment of the photo guide to Aussie lizards. Work was all consuming for awhile but things are settling again.

Very excited just found 22 eastern bearded dragon eggs. My female was acting funny and didn't eat the last few days but I thought she was going into brumation but just walked in before and she was very skinny. Checked under the log she always lays under to find 22 eggs! Great improvement on her...

Want to buy Jouvie Central or possibly eastern bearded dragons (preferably only a couple of months old) I live in the sutherland Shire, Sydney. But I am willing to drive a fair distance, so if you live around sydney, just let me know.

Well first of all im talking about my experience with eastern beardies and jacky dragons that were bred in the previous two years. 1 jacky and 1 eastern bearded 6 months old. 1 eastern bearded 1 year old.
First of all a little background information all parents of these dudes. The parents of...
Have you ever jumped the gun?
When I got my Eastern about 3 months ago from the breeder I gave it a quick glance and sexed it on the fly, it was dark and the little bugger had just bit me so after a very quick inspection I deemed him a boy, thus forth he was known as REX.
Today how ever I...
I was wondering which lizards would you house together... I have 2 blueys, 2 beardies, 2 EWD & 1 Frilly (oh and 2 sand swimmers but I know the answer there), I have just had a 4ft x 5ft x 2ft enclosure made for my Frilly and was interested in what people thought about housing other lizards in...
Just cleaned out my beardie tank so i thought i would post some pics of the adults. The female has allready gained 30 grams since being wormed only 11 days ago. The male hasn't gained any weight yet be he has been in brumation.
As some of you may have read I have a bearded dragon, SHOCK.
Anyways my bearded is now about 7 months old, he enjoys being handled and loves coming out of his enclosure. He is a Eastern bearded dragon so hes also very active and loves a good run around the room to stretch his legs out.
Today...

Boyfriend and I found this guy on the side of a dirt road... as we pulled over so I could take a photo of the landscape.
He was about 50cms away from the front tyres so we shooed him from the road in case he found his end.
Was only a small critter, I'd say a year or two old. Not sure though.

Hey everybody,
I was wondering how you all feed your beardies. I feed mine in his enclosure with all the logs taken out but I want to know if there is a better way as sometimes he wont eat live woodies and just watches them run around. It is possible for him to go 4 - 5 days with out eating...

Side thread to the Womas on Class 1 thread.
There is talk of DECC enforcing minimum enclosure sizes, which are likely a lot larger than we currently keep our animals in.
Opinions anyone?

A few things first this reptile will be my first reptiles. I am unsure of whether to buy a central bearded dragon or pygmy bearded dragon. Im struggling to find the differences besides the size of the pygmy ones.

I know most of us have seen baby Bearded Dragons, Pogona barbata, but thought I would post some pics of this little guy I found while doing the lawns.

Hi all,
As many of you know I have a baby beardie.
He usually basks as per normal etc, but lately I see him in this spot (pic) but with his whole body including head flat down. He is always a little darker in colour in this position.
He eats well, is alert and also does bask, he just shed...
