from what i understand beardies are a medium level reptile and that is only because they live for a pretty long time compared to like a mouse, rat, hamster, etc. i agree that they should not be considered easy level reptiles. silly.
yeah. i dont even go into my petstores anymore. i luckily have a couple beardie breeders in my town and a buddy who does everything reptiles and has been in the business for years and i get my feeders from him. i just want to take so many animals home if i go into a petstore because they look so...
i am sure your beardie is very pretty. i have a male german giant and he has normal coloring but is gonna be a beast and thats what i wanted as apposed to color. i got my female orange citrus from craigslist for $40 and she wasnt listed as fancy. she did have a tail nip but i fell in love with...
i agree. fancy beardie! c'mon. if that was the case breeders could pick out the few beardies from each clutch that look a little nicer then the rest and call them fancy. if its fancy they would tell you its some kind of morph. i have never seen this before but have heard on here about people...
if he was only 5" at a few months old he was really small. my german giant male was hatched out at bigger then that. it all depends on husbandry for size. private keepers i know seem to have their beardies be about 18" at 10 months to a year old but then breeders i know power feed and give...
that was great. im harsh, i admit it. im used to the days of having to go to the library at the university or know people to get my info so its frustrating to me when so much information is at anyones finger tips with the click of a mouse and they have questions still. i guess im the type of guy...
sorry to come off that way i have just been keeping beardies and reptiles for possibly longer then you have been alive and love them so much with a passion. when i see a title to a thread like yours it tell me "no experience." prove me wrong though. whats your temps, tank size(gallons or...
sorry, im old school and my beardie buddies from the 80's would die if they heard someone call a beardie "fancy". awfully silly. sorry about the petstore comment also. i would never buy from a petstore period. i get my beardies from breeders who have been doing this since the 80's and are...
i would say it depends on how much you paid. if you got him for a reasonable price i wouldnt take it back. you already have the little guy. nice lookin beardie
i wouldnt buy a beardie from any store that didnt label what he was. ive never heard someone say "fancy" beardie. thats funny. it does look leatherback. if so that is the morph as colors are only breeding lines and not morphs.
