    Brumation or parasites/sickness??

    Hey everyone, I'm a first time beardie owner and I've had my dragon for a year and 5 months. I noticed he started going to bed earlier and pushed his food away. He doesn't look sick just groggy. My only guess was brumation. So I decided to make sure he pooped and bathed for hydration before I...

    Shedding Behaviour

    Hello, I noticed that my bearded dragon was being a total grump and being skittish but he recently finished his shed and now has become his normal cuddly self and didn't struggle when I picked him up. He's only about 5 months and all his temps and appetite are fine. He's alert and active as...

    Just brought my baby beardie home but he won't eat

    Hihi, It is completely normal for your new dragon to not eat or act strange when you first bring it home. I guess every beardie has their form of relocation stress. Try not to touch him/her for at least 4 days except for changing water, veggies, and cleaning the habitat. I've read stories of...

    Closing eyes while bath

    Closing eyes while bath

    hello! Mine dragon does that in the bath too! It could be him relaxing or enjoying the heat of the water. Just make sure the water isn't too warm because some dragons I've heard are fussier than others. I notice that if I fill my sink too deep my dragon hates it so shoulder level should be...

    How do you work with a baby beardie on handling?

    Hello! My beard seems to be a natural shoulder cuddler but I do agree that baby beardies might fly off or run off your shoulder because they have weird depth and perception meaning they don't really know that your shoulder doesn't go on forever (if that makes sense) My baby beardie nearly jumped...

    Baby Dragon Closing Eyes

    Hihi Holy, My name's Katelyn and I'm still a beginner at taking care of my beardie. Mine seems to be close one eye at a time sometimes as if he's resting it. He's been doing ever since I've adopted him and no health problems have been detected. Some people say that a uvb coil bulb may harm a...

    Hello! New Beard Parent

    Hihi, My name is Katelyn. I just got my bearded dragon about a month ago. I was walking through petsmheart (not sure if saying a company name is legal but you can tell which petstore I'm talking about based on how i spelt it lol) when a baby beard was up for adoption because he's missing an arm...
