Reptiles make great pets for those with the proper mindset, and Bearded Dragons are among the most popular of those reptile pets. They are sturdy, just small enough, and eat simple, variant diets. With a lifespan of up to fifteen years, they can be a good long term pet, but only with the proper care and attention to the lifestyle and necessities of their diets.
What Type Of Food Should I Feed To My Pet Bearded Dragon?
I have been feeding my Bearded Dragon, Tony romaine lettuce and gut loaded crickets since summer. I think its time I feed him some new food. I want him to grow some more because he’s only 3. He’s 17 inches. Please write back about the food that you recommend.
The Bearded Dragon, also known as the Lizard of Oz, is an enormously popular pet from down under. It is estimated that in 1998, 100,000 Bearded Dragons will be purchased by reptile enthusiasts in the United States. A docile animal, Beardeds are relatively easy to keep in captivity–but they do need special care–all of which will be included in this excellent source for the beginning Bearded Dragon fan.

Ok so my girlfriend is going on vacation with her family for a week and asked me if i would mind taking care of her beardie while she’s gone.
Of course i said no problem and I’ll do it,
I already have a Chinese Water dragon and It’s not like im new to reptiles or anything.
She’s giving me the cage, bowls, water, food, and all that Lighting UVA and UVB.
I was just thinking is there any extra things i should be concerned with? I’m Usally more of a tropical reptile handler, so the beardie is new to me even though i have the basics down.
Bearded Dragons need a large enough habitat to allow for a variety of distances from the heat source. A glass aquarium is recommended for security, ease of maintenance, and pet viewing. To avoid the expense of multiple habitats as your pet grows to adulthood, consider using a partition that can be easily adjusted. This way, throughout the life of the pet, you can use a single large aquarium, 55-70 gallons.
The white melamine is a material that keeps the cage very bright which is important for stimulating a dragon’s appetite. The light (and the UVB) stays inside the cage rather than escaping through the glass sides of an aquarium. Glass fronts will allow the dragon to check out their world and interact with you.
What kind of information does a lizard get to taste his surroundings?
I was watching my pet bearded dragon jumps around his vivarium and I saw him flick his tongue out and taste his seated timber. And I began to wonder what kind of information does he have to do it? Snakes and several types of lizards flick their tongues out regularly. Not all lizards have forked tongues (which I've read is theorized to provide a reptile odor management). I know what they are doing is to taste the ground, and taste the air, but what makes it taste tell them? It may not be fair, "hm, I wonder what animals have been here" is it?
do they like to be held do they bite are they hard to take care of are they cool pets do they make good pets for reptile beginners do they just and hang around and are males or females more calm
Great pets.
The nicest ones we had at the petstore I worked in.
All of them were very chill from the moment they arrived as babies.
