Hello,
I just rescued an adult bearded dragon. I think he's a few years old and from everything I've been reading, has been extremely ill cared for. (only fed every week or two, no lights, ignored). I am going into this aware that there might be nothing I can do to save him, but would like to make whatever time he has left as awesome and comfortable as possible.
From what information I can gather, he has only ever been fed red peppers as he "cant catch crickets" (information from the owner before last) and he "doesnt like anything green". I gave him some snap peas yesterday and he went crazy for them.
As this has happened very quickly (I was just offered him and I can't bear the thought of saying no), I am trying to crash course this as fast as I can. Any information or advice you can share with me would be SOOOO appreciated!!
Thank you so much
Phae
