vendetta the six month old bearded

Question
QUESTION: Hello Kandis,

Are you located in the US or outside of the US?  The petstores here in the US usually carry it.  You can find it online in most instances, as well.
I recommend getting the Reptisun 10 tube bulb as soon as you can.  
If you would like to purchase some liquid calcium, I have a small online reptile supply store & sell liquid calcium so just let me know & I will send you my site.
How is she doing today?  At least she is of healthy weight right now, that is good to hear.  
The infrared is ok, but, not quite bright enough for her.  It wont protect her eyes enough from the UVB either.  I would suggest trying a brighter light like a halogen or a regular house hold light bulb instead, to mount alongside your tube bulb when you get it.  I think you would be surprised how her activity would increase with a brighter light for her to bask under.

Let me know how she is doing.

Sorry the site told me to ask a different question, so i made a new one.
No i live in canada the northern region hence all the heat im pumping in my 55gl. i only have a 150watt inferred during night to maintain constant heat, in the day time i have two 150watt basking lights. Im always down to change up my tank especially if its going to help my beardy. i love the little tard aha, so yes i would like to get your website so i can purchase liquid calcium. Vendetta is doing good today i walked in and to my surprise vendetta and karma were laying beside each other on the bark hut and basking, was supper cute cause normally vendetta trys to keep her distance from karma.. well only when karma jumps on vendetta and bothers her. so you really think that the liquid calcium would make that much of a difference? I dont care if shes blind and i have to hand feed her for the rest of her time i just want her to move around and run into walls or something. so what do you think the reason behind the sunken eyes are?

ANSWER: Hello Kandis,

Ok, Here is my site for liquid calcium.  Where in Canada do you live, northern!  
If she is low in calcium, yes, liquid calcium will definitely help her out.
It is  www.bug-de-lite.com

Do you think that she has a sight problem?  
If her eyes are sunken in, then she could be dehydrated.
Does the male try to mate with her?  At that age, a male & female should not be housed together as they can mate too early risking the female's health.  So you will need to eventually separate them to avoid overbreeding or early breeding.  
GREAT that you are using a bright white light during the day, that is fine.

Let me know how things are going.
Thanks.

QUESTION: alright ill try the liquid calcium out and let you know how that goes.
yes i do think she has a sight problem, her eyes are very sunken in, but ive tried the hydration stuff and she does drink water just fine but there still sunken in?
No karma doesnt try to mate with vendetta and just recently karma has been developing testis so it was a disappointment, but yeah i know ill eventually have to separate them.

ANSWER: Hello Kandis,

How are things going today?
If they are that sunken in, then I highly recommend getting a fecal done on her.  She could have parasites or worms, which steal nutrition from them.  Do you have a picture of her for me?
Keep getting oral fluids into her, as much as you can.
If she is not eating, then try the chicken, or turkey baby food, mixed with squash baby food to get nutrition into her.  
Let me know how she is doing!
Since my site is still a little new, it doesn't have the international shipping on it.  So if you decide you want to try that, let me know & I will give you my email & we can arrange a paypal transaction that way.  Otherwise, you might be able to find Zilla liquid calcium.  If so, I can help you dose that as well.

QUESTION: good vendetta is basing in the heat head held high.
did you want a picture of her eyes or pelvic bone? if she does have parasites or worms will that be curable?
she eats fine shes actually a pig when it comes to food loves crickets and worms but shell eat her veggies. the other beardy, karma, however doesnt like his veggies, should i try the baby food for him?
which liquid calcium is better? i can go either way.

Answer
Hello Kandis,

How is your baby today?
Is he eating anything for you yet?
Yes, if you have any pictures of her that would be helpful!  If she has worms or parasites, they can be treated yes, & be controlled to where it will be a low level & not bother her.
Well, I have really good calcium, but it would probably take a couple of weeks or so for you to get the calcium depending on where in Canada you live.  If you can the Zilla liquid calcium in your area, it is a pretty good product.  It just depends on how quickly you want the calcium!
You can use some baby food for Karma, that is not a problem.  I am sure that he would really like it as well.
Let me know how they are both doing!
