I have seen this guy for over a week now and to me he looks very small for a 2 year old beardie which leads me to believe this person is less then honest about his feeding habits. But, I could also be sadly mistaken. All in all, I would like to see this guy get a good home.

I called the number just to see and the girl says she just got HIM. she wanted a female and the "breeder" had told her it was a female but it wasn't.
She also says that it is 2 years old but is small because it is a "dwarf" bearded dragon. So now she wants to get rid of it because it is not a female.
Other than that she would not tell me anything.

I am rather new to beardie types but I have never heard of a "dwarf" beardie. Unfortunately I see a lot of reptiles constantly being rehomed on craigslist. I wish people would think before they get animals...

 

[jeritta]

yea, we are relatively new to beardies to but like you I have never heard of a "dwarf" type of beardies either. She did not seem to willing to answer my questions.
I also see a lot of them on craigslist in NC.

Did she say what she was asking for him?

 

[jeritta]

no she did not give price. when i asked she changed subject. the whole situation seemed a little off to me. I hope though that someone is close to her and gets the little one so it has a safe home.

 

[ReptarsMommy]

I do. I wish I could get him but until I move I don't have the room or money to house another beardie.

I can already see how this is going to go when I get my house. 934508435 rescue beardies everywhere. Lol

I've had my beardie for over a year now, and I can tell you that there is indeed such a thing as a dwarf beardie, but not an actual "dwarf" in the sense of the Central Bearded Dragon. They are an entirely seperate species and i am pretty certain that they are not only extremely difficult to get a hold of, but the people who get them are not going to feed it pellets and whole wheat bread. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pogona_henrylawsoni
More often, people seem to call stunted bearded dragons dwarf bearded dragons. This to me (feel free to disagree with me) does not look like a a Lawson's dragon, so more than likely it's just a beardie who won't hit full growth.

It doesn't at all. Thanks for clearing that up. =)

Its sad to see. It really is.
