    Falcor The Dragon

    Hey all! Sort of coming back from a short hiatus...Remaking a thread for my beardie, Falcor. I had originally named him Smok, but have decided to change it as he's come into his personality (and he is actually a HE). Here are a couple pictures: When I first got him, back in March. I was told he...

    Beardie FINALLY eats salads, but on ONE condition. Help!

    So my picky eater is finally eating salads! He is quite the stubborn one, and would rather me hand feed it to him (unless I'm gone for the day, he'll suck it up and eat it himself). So one issue; he only eats them if there's fruit involved....I currently use Bok Choy (That's the only green he's...

    Smart Beardie; Funny story...

    So I've had my baby Smok for a couple months now. He has become quite the eater, and loves his crickets. I had to get a critter keeper to keep them in, so I could buy enough for a few days and keep them (without fear of escape). This critter keeper is super convenient; it has long removable...

    Hypo Citrus....?

    Hey all. This is my baby beardie: I've been told he is a Hypo Citrus. I know there are different "patterns"/types of Citrus Dragons. Any idea on what category he'd fall into? He's got very bright oranges, but I'm not good with specifics. He has white nails too.

    Feeding Time Options?

    So I've been feeding my baby beardie in his tank... I've tried "bin feeding" him, but all he does is freak out and try to crawl out of the bin- even when there are bugs in there! He eats first thing in the morning (usually 10-15 crickets), but sometimes he doesn't get to them all before I leave...

    Trying to get my attention?

    So I hear this thunk across the room and look over to find Smok jumping at the opening to his tank (literally hanging on the wall). I had been holding him a bit before and had put him back... I've heard the term "glass dancing"... is this a behavior to get attention? I figured maybe he wanted...

    Smok the Bearded Dragon (progression)

    So I figured it would be a good idea to create a thread to track my new baby beardie's tales and progression into adulthood- much better than making new posts every couple of days. So starting: he (not sure it's really a he yet) is about 5 1/2 inches long, so only a couple months old. I've...

    Baby Smok likes to lick me...

    My baby Smok is starting to grow accustomed to me. He doesn't fuss when I pick him up and will often sit still for several minutes and just close his eyes. He also has a habit of licking me... Mostly my hands when I'm holding him. Does anyone else's dragon do this? Any idea what it means? I...

    Making Friends! Finally!

    So the past couple days I've been trying to hold my baby beardie, and get him to get comfortable with handling. It started with him bolting around the tank and scaling walls, to tolerating me at night when I'd scoop him up to snuggle. But today (full daylight and fully alert) he crawled into my...

    Question about handling

    So I just bought my new baby beardie, and had a question in reference to handling. Hopefully this is the right area, and if not, I'm sorry! He is fairly young, my understanding would be only a couple months (only 5-6inches long). So what are some things I can try as far as handling? I'd like...
