My Beardie has always been just kinda plain and brown but I didn't mind. He was always a good boy. After his last shed he got some pretty amazing changes with some vibrant color I guess he has matured to a adult.?
My camera doesnt do him justice but he is so orange and dark almost burnt...
He just started attacking his toe/claw until he chewed it off? He was holding it in his mouth running around the cage like crazy. I distracted him and he stopped. What is going on?
Started a new Hide and basking spot for the Viv. Used the Hot wire foam cutter to make the shapes it was a lot neater than a steak knife we used the last time lol.
Ready to grout and seal
I'm pretty happy with this order for a starter colony. I got the 75.00 Small Colony which is 60 Females 20 Males and 500 mixed. My 500 mixed were mostly larger sizes. Here is some videos I shot.

So I more or less decided to stay with the 40 gal breeder tank. But, the screen lid is a nuisance getting in and out of. Idea born out of need.
I'm building a custom wood top with a Vent on one end a Light mount on the other and a large hinged door in the middle. My lid will be almost 6...
Since I put his hide in he hardly ever comes out unless I entice him with Feeding time. Then it's right back in there. The hide is also his basking spot so I guess it's warm in there. I took the hide out for a bit and he tried to get inside this cave rock I have in there that only about 1/4...
vvvvNo pictures of the build as we just rebuilt the cabinet. Added a Lid, New glass front, New sides and floor.
Enclosure build out complete
Starting on "Bacon's" background
Thinking of a new twist on custom rock wall:
My guy has been trying to get into this little cave rock I have that is about a quarter his size. Thinking he is really wanting a hide I made him a quick one out of a box. Is a cardboard box OK to use until I can make something better?
He was trying to get into the tall rock cave in the back.
As of late my beardie has been on his basking perch with his mouth open stretching to the light. Is this a way to regulate heat or body temp. Or is he saying More food please?
Thanks.
Well I took the plunge I bought a Dubia Colony. 10 prego Females 2 males and 500 cousins to start feeding them right away while the new ones come along. I got it at CnS Feeders http://cnsfeeders.webs.com/ I'll report back after they arrive.
Ya I was a little lazy the other night and instead of chopping Duke's greens up I just kinda tore them up into smallish pieces. As soon as he started eating them he just kinda turned his head with this big leaf hanging from his mouth and was like "Really Dude" Spit it out and went back to his...
So looking through Craigslist in my area I found a guy selling old Jewelry display cases. They look like perfect ready to cages. Some already have electric built in. Only challenge may be access from the rear but some did have front sliding doors already.
Example...
I thought it might be coming has had some odd behavior and looked really dull yesterday. This morning I could see the skin peeling off. He has most of it gone overnight.
With everyone hanging their TV's these days stands like this are becoming trash to them. I think this one could be made into a great cage plus storage and look nice in the house.
Just watching videos about dragons. There is so much information being said that contradicts most what I read from owners on here. They promote weird feeding and having multiple's in a cage. One guy said your cage is to large you need to add a couple more bearededs to that cage or yours will...
