BEST WAY TO GET MY BEARDIE HYDRATED

Very best way to hydrate bearded dragon is plenty of fresh leafy greens, fresh veg and live insects.

Bearded dragons have evolved to survive in the arid interior of Australia where they rarely see rain , flowing water or standing water (unless it's seeps, springs and artesian (manmade bores). They get all their moisture from their food , and sometimes if there is fog they will get moisture in the early morning from the dew they find on glasses.

I supplement their food hydration by dripping water on my beardies' snouts and letting it drain to their lips , if they are thirsty they swallow the water that accumulates in their mouth.

Easy way: dissolve some bee pollen in cooled, boiled water. Offer to beardie using syringe. Let the licking conmence.

My guys had come to associate the syringe with medicine, but now investigate eagerly because it could be tasty bee pollen water.

They do learn pretty quick.

A small house hold handy spray bottle which has misting capability will work well .
