I am with others that a red heat light is simply undesirable. During the day your Beardie should get white light and at night no light. I like a ballasted UVB white light such as the ones sold by Reptile UV for providing UVA/UVB to my Beardie. You can supplement that with a UVB florescent...

Yeah, often Ragnar sleeps on a branch. But sometimes he just hunkers down on the ground, under his branches, and conks out. Normal Beardie behavior, in my experience.

I agree with Cooper. I have Ragnar's lights on a timer. As long as he has enough food for us being gone, he is good to go staying at home.

I have tried everything and yes, tiles (removable) are the best. You can usually just wipe up the mess and twice a month or so take 'em out and really clean them.

Well, he is a good looking Dragon. Give him some protein with the greens and he'll be fine. Hornworms are particularly good for re-hydrating Dragons as these worms contain a fair amount of water. And every Dragon I've ever seen loves them.

Yes, she looks great. She WILL enjoy the bigger domain when you can swing it for her.

Great looking Dragon. Let him eat! At this age they are hungry because they are growing and growing = good. Be sure he is getting calcium and reptile vitamins.

Yes, uneven sheds are very common. My new Beardie, Ragnar, seems to like to shed first his tail and four legs, then his body and head. These lizards have been doing this for millions of years; they know what they are doing, crazy as it may seem.

You didn't say how big or how old your Dragon is. Feeding a Dragon nothing but collard greens for 8 months is an inadequate diet in the extreme. These animals need some protein; how much depends on the age and size of the dragon. Plus, in my experience these animals need variety. Just one...

It cracks me up how these Beardies totally veg out with their arms and legs flung in all directions. Ragnar does the same thing.

I have had good luck with hornworms as a main live food staple for Beardies. Lord knows that Ragnar loves them and he is growing like crazy. I alternate dusting them with Calcium and Reptile Vitamins. Not sure how Hornworms differ nutritionally all that much from Silkworms. I feed Ragnar...

I'm not sure how a Dragon can be "too big" ?? And how big was that if you do not mind sharing.

Yes. Very important that your new owner has a basking spot at around 100F and also that your master has plenty of UVB. I always have a Reptile UV 160 watt self-ballasting bulb for my owner.

He looks a lot like my Ragnar ...

Great looking Beardie, OP. The truncated tail just gives him character. He looks like a bigger than average guy. My last full grown girl was 21 inches. Yours looks like he'd be bigger than that if his tail was not slightly truncated.

Desi is a great looking Beardie! I hope Ragnar can equal his 24 inch size. Last week he was 15 inches and entering into a new shed. Hope he continues to grow.

Nice cave/basking station. I have one somewhat similar made of wood rather than rock. Ragnar loves it.

Odin is a winner! Great looking guy and he is sure lucky to be your owner!

I know what you mean about roaches ("Dubias") but actually you will find that they are cleaner, hardier, and easier to deal with in every way than crickets. They do not stink like crickets and they are better for your beardies than crickets.
