Anyones beardie ever vomit? If so what could be the cause of it? Too much food?
I believe that, in most instances, it happens because temps are not high enough, or are not high for a long enough time period, for them to digest the food. This can happen if fed right before bedtime, in addition to any other time the temps aren't high enough. It can happen if they eat too much, or for a variety of other reasons.

I can say that my temps are good. 105 in the basking spot, which my lights are on a timer of 14/10. I also use an UTH w/rheostat control during the nite time to keep temps around 78 degrees. Lately my beardie has been eating like a pig....He is only 3 months old. I should say that the crix he has been eating are appropriatly sized.
What are some other reasons besides poor temps?

Most of the times the temp is off must be 105 in the basking spot to digest, Too much food can do ot, and parasites can do it.

Sorry for the multiple post.....puter is being retarded. The basking spot is 105, I think it is too much food. He has only done it once.
That has happened to us a few times. It usually happens when someone is a little hyperactive at the food dish. One of our females who just layed was STARVING (as they usually are once they have all that room in their bellies where the eggs used to be!) She pushed her roomates out of the way and went nuts on the zophabas... Up they came! It happens once in a while, don't worry too much. If it happens more than that (I've only seen it 3 times in 3 years with all of our dragons) then I would start looking for reasons other than gluttony.
