Lost Bearded Dragon

I NEED HELP/ADVICE PLEASE MSG ME AND GIVE TIPS TO FINDING BEARDED DRAGON!

Lost inside or outside?

If inside: Put out a heat source/basking spot, let a few easy to catch bugs roam around (like worms), check anywhere he could wedge himself into, especially warm areas, like under the fridge.

If outside: search bushes and any place that could be a hide, also search potential basking areas like sunny spots.

Check every day, the same spots (and new ones) and don't lose hope. Many beardies pop back up days, weeks, and sometimes even months later. Just keep looking!

Thank You i was losing hope i was dieing thank you again and it was inside

Hello,

If you lost him inside & there is basically no escape route out, then he is in there hiding somewhere, probably sleeping.
Did you check under the bed mattress if you have a box spring? How about behind the tv or computer table where there are a bunch of wires & cables or even behind the fridge where it is warm since air blows out at the bottom. They are pretty crafty when it comes to hiding.

Tracie

I rescue beardies. I generally try and give them all time outside their cages. The first time I lost one I flipped. Searched every room for days, left heat lamp out, food, nothing. After a week he crawled out from under the bed, even tho I searched there every day. He'd weaseled up a hole in the fabric on the bottom of the box spring.

Since then I've "lost" several of them, but only for a few hours. I don't get concerned anymore, I just am careful about moving things gently till I find them sleeping. When I let them run around, I confine them to one room. That way if they do sneak off, I don't have to look hard. Most of the time they are under a bed, behind a piece of furniture, snuggled in the laundry basket, those types of places. Don't worry too much, just think like a beardie, and check anywhere dark and warm.

Beardies are creatures who develop habits and seem to always to one of their favorate spots to curl up and nap after a run about.

You'll have a bit of history , check those favourate spots , and spots where you have caught him trying to go but you stopped him on a regular basis - they are like kids, if it's forbidden , it's even more desireable a place to go. Likely one of those is where he'll be.

You could lay sheets of butchers paper about in strategic spots with a dusting of flour on them, if he comes out and travels across , he'll leave a trail and at least you'll have a hint on where he's been or was going.
