Being bored, I looked at wikipedia's page for bearded dragons. It did not make me a happy camper.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearded_dragon
Bearded Dragons make great pets for children of all ages. In order to own a bearded dragon you need to purchase the following things a big cage, sand it dirt of some kind for the bottom of the tank, a rock and dome vines for them to sleep on and crawl on, you also need to have two different lights types of lights a normal one and then u need a red light so you can turn it on at night because they do not know the difference between night and day so the different colors allow then to know the difference.the third and final thing you need to get is a heating pad, there cage needs to be at a certain temperature at all time.
Bearded Dragos also reproduce on there own so if you having a female and she ends up having babies in order for you to keep them you would need to take them out and put the in a separate cage to raise them orelse they will get stepped on or killed by the others in the cage, they could also very well get eaten.Certain foods that they eat are crickets, melees worms, cabbage, carrots , and bearded dragon pellets. You can also go online and order them a powder that you can sprinkle on there food in order for them to get there vitamins they need in order for them to grow properly.
They can be ver sociable animals if treated properly. You can take them out of the cage and hold them take them around your house, they can also interact with you other house hold pets like dogs and cats because the are very good letting the other animals when they want to be left alone. when a bearded dragon moves they sometimes tend to bob there heads once they stop, Once they have found a spot they will just lay there perfectly still until they want to move again or if you feed them.
If you would like your dragon to gro to its full length you need to have a cage that is big enough to support them, they will only grow to the length and width of the cage because they nned room to move around, if you have more then one i would recommend you get a bigger cage then if you had one.
So, let's count the gross inaccuracies on bearded dragon care in wikipedia's article. I count seven.
