o I had my bearded dragon for about a week and everything seemed ok. But today after his feeding of small crickets for breakfast that I purchased from petco, I noticed his beard is slightly puffed out. I do not know if this is good or bad. It's been like that all day. He doesn't seem to be in any distress, but did notice he hadn't been all that hungry today at lunch or dinner. he hate a couple of crickets but totally skipped dinner. I am worried the feed petco gave me might have caused something. The petco employee assured me the crickets I purchased were the appropriate size for a juvenile, but now I am getting worried. it could be just my imagination but this is my first bearded dragon and I just wanna make sure he's ok. He already had his poop for the day and seems still lively since he run around his home.

Thanks in advance for any help!

He might have some crickets stored in there -- but if he was in distress his beard would be black --- you got your guy from Petco ? Can you please post pics of your tank and lighting so we can maybe give you some tips on your husbandry
thanks Karrie

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
Taking my beardie for a walk
