    Running out of options - Help!

    It seems I probably won't be able to get a bearded dragon and it's all because of live feeders. I've talked to both of my parents about starting a dubia colony and the answer was no, even when I stated the facts that they don't make noise, can't climb, aren't messy, etc. She won't let me keep...

    3 Months to go :)

    Thanks everyone! I'm really excited :D I found a 36x20x20 enclosure that already comes with an incandescent light fixture and fluorescent light fixture so it'll save me some money and I won't have to be clamp lamps or a light fixture for the reptisun :)

    Might be starting a colony

    Well, today I am going to be talking to my parents about starting a dubia roach colony for the bearded dragon I'm getting soon. I've gotten quite used to them just by seeing pictures of them and watching youtube videos on colonies. About how many adult dubias will I need to start a colony for...

    Help me convince my dad to let me raise Dubia?

    I'm also having trouble trying to convince my parents to let me start a dubia colony before I get my beardie. Can someone help me come up with other ways to convince my parents, mainly my mom? I've already told her what everyone else has posted but it's not working.

    Crickets per week? And Micro Superworms?

    My mom will not let me breed crickets so crickets will only be used for feeding. I was wondering how many crickets on average does a bearded dragon consume weekly? I know it varies with every dragon but I just wanted to see how many can be consumed by members' beardies weekly so I can get an...

    3 Months to go :)

    Hey everyone. It's been awhile since I made an update on my progress on getting a bearded dragon. After I complete summer school and get my diploma (unfortunately, I couldn't graduate with my class) I am getting my beardie. I have a lot of money saving to go because everything is going to cost...

    Questions & Shopping List

    To save a little money, I was thinking about using the Zoo Med Power Sun MVB Bulb for both heat and light. Are they safe to use now and do they provide the right amout of UV as a Reptisun 10.0 would? I'll be getting my beardie sometime in August or September and I want to make sure I have...

    Micro Superworms?

    Thank you :) . I don't have my beardie yet but I will in about 3 weeks. I just wanted to make sure micro superworms could be used because I was afraid a BD could impaction from eating them. I saw them on mulberryfarms.

    Micro Superworms?

    Hello. Does anyone know if I can use micro superworms as a staple for a juvenile bearded dragon? I know phoenix worms are better but they're a little too expensive for me, even with the coupons. Micro superworms are much cheaper and I've heard they're easier for beardies to digest.

    5,000 reptiworms?

    I was on the reptiworms site and I saw their phoenix worm sizes and quantities. On average, about how long will 5,000 phoenix worms last if I have one bearded dragon?

    Basking Question

    Ok. The enclosure I am getting for my beardie already comes with an incandescent fixture. I was wondering since it only has one light fixture, should I get two bulbs for heat? Like one for day time and one for night or should I just get a ceramic heat emitter?

    Found the perfect enclosure!

    About a week ago, I attended a reptile show and there were custom bearded dragon cages there. There were some new custom cages that were 36"Lx20"Dx20"H. It gets better! The cages come with a fluorescent fixture and one incandescent fixture. I know a 4x2x2 is better for a beardie but space is a...

    PetMountain?

    I might be getting a beardie sooner than I think and I was just wondering if anyone has ever ordered any of their reptiles supplies from petmountain? I've heard its a pretty good site but I want to hear from people who have ordered supplies from petmountain.

    Another Update

    Hey guys. Sorry I haven't updated in a while on my progress on getting a beardie. School's been pretty hard and I can't wait until its finally over which will be in 5 weeks. I'm also in danger of not graduating which is stressing me out really badly. In other news, I still have not gotten a...

    Maybe a Uro?

    After doing a little more research on beardies, I've decided getting one would not be a good choice due to their ferocious appetites and I don't want to house crickets or roaches in my house and phoenix worms are just to expensive for me. I have a question about them. Can they be handled? I've...

    Feeding a newly bought beardie

    There is a possibility I might come home with a bearded dragon from next weekend's reptile show. I might not be able to order its reptiworms right away though and I might not be able to crickets either considering our closest petstore is a couple of miles away. What are some foods I can feed...

    Small Update

    Thanks guys :). I'll be sure to give that a try. I'm going to a reptile show this weekend to get an enclosure though I haven't decided what I want between a Blue Tongue Skink or the Beardie.
