    Just rescued a beardie and need help asap!!

    It's no problem, I've actually had people call me cynical today for spending so much money on a lizard, in the 3 weeks I've had her, I've spent atleast $500, the vet was close to $200 but I don't look at it that way, money is easy to replace, you can't replace a life, my animals are my family...

    Beardie that doesn't like being in a cage >.>

    Draco is the same way, I put him in his cage and he lays down and looks all sad, I get him out and he runs the house like he owns the place haha. As for at night time I feel too guilty making him sit in the dark awake so he sleeps in bed wrapped in a blanket with me, of course with his nose...

    I've bought Dubai roaches, super worms, crickets, butter worms ect and he will not go after any of them, when i first got him he wouldnt eat so I got worried and would hand feed him, now he's so spoiled he won't eat on his own if I leave food in his tank. he will only eat greens and fruit...
