Well for anyone who saw my this thread : Bearded Dragon death...So angry!!!

The owner DID report me to the RSPCA and they came round today!

I know my rights about not having to let them in, but i also have nothing to hide.

The report was that apparently all of my animals were in poor health and had no food, and the vivs had no proper lighting or substrate.

The inspector was one i have seen on a few occasions when i have reported cases, so i know him to a reasonable extent anyway.

He had a good look in the vivs, it was quite obvious that there was nothing wrong with any of my livestock. UV tubes where needed, records of daily temperature checks etc, fresh food/water a-plenty.

I told him the full story of the dragons, explained to him why i didn`t use a substrate and only newspaper, ie they were infested with mites when i bought them.

He looked at my parrots and asked me the usual questions about feeding routines etc. Looked at my torts and their papers and looked over their setup.


All in all he went away a happy little inspector and complemented me on my knowledge....but i still can`t believe that this bloke had the cheek to forcefeed a sick bearded dragon half a pint of water plus liquidised veg and calcium and then has the nerve to report ME to the RSPCA!!!!!!

All fun eh??

Can you not report him/her to the RSPCA?

I know it may appear to be petty but if they have other reps, and he's giving 1/2 pint of liquid and liquidised food to a brumating beardie (i know nothing bout beardies other than what you stated earlier in the thread) then they aren't at all knowledgable and questions need to be asked if theri other animals are at risk?

Mandy thats horrific.. having beef with someone/ disagreeing etc is one thing but reporting you in this way is shameful...

if they were so concerned it was you that was the problem
and not them

then an autopsy/post mortem should have been carried out

can't understand the gall of some people

Thanks, thats what i thought too. I know that my animals are cared for, maybe not perfect, but then who is? They never go without food, water, heat, UV, etc, whatever it is they need, they have.
The guy was actually watching the other female beardie eating greens under the UV tube when he collected the female, and i was handfeeding them waxies in their presence, so the reports that they had no food/water or proper lighting was purely malicious.

Sadly no, we will never know for definite what the cause of death was.
