the harmful substances that contain the THC to his dragon. There have actually been quite
a few studies in the last few years which discussed the use of Cannibinoids for animal use.
There have been a growing number of people using the CBD oil for help with cancer & skin
ailments on their dragons.
Please refrain from using offensive language as well, as it is covered in the TOS.
I find it is always best to have an open mind when it comes to alternative therapy. Otherwise,
there is no progress. Of course, caution always has to be exercised as well. Please be
respectful of others here!

I don't because it's mine. But this is a little ridiculous, if that bearded dragon was living in the wild and came across the plant he would eat it so I really don't see the problem. I can't see it poisening the bearded dragon as I let mine eat fan leaves that have thc. It's not poisen like that it's not even active until its heated up ie. smoking or cooking.

Sorry pal, no wild cannabis plants in central bearded dragon natural range , too hot, too dry. The cows, sheep, goats, camels, roos and wallabies would eat it all long before any hungry bearded dragon found it, much like everything else green and "herby".

Im not sure it will ever be considered a real healthy addition to salads (compared to staple greens like collard mustard and dandelion) but it is great to confirm or deny toxicity.
How often do you feed your dragon the cannabis leaves, and how much does he consume usually?
How long have you been doing this?
Do your notice any behavioral changes at all (good or bad) when he eats the thc leaves?
And it sounds like you've never fed him the bud, but the wording leaves it up for interpretation so can you confirm you have or have not let your dragon try the bud?

wikipedia link":1ep0tfvj said:The Hunter Valley cannabis outbreak was an infestation of the marijuana plant, Cannabis sativa in the Hunter Valley in New South Wales, Australia. At its peak, the infestation covered about 30 square kilometres (12 sq mi). It took nine years for the New South Wales government to eradicate it.[1]
kingofnobbys":1ep0tfvj said:My home turf …. I live in the hunter valley , and I've never encountered a wild cannabis plant in my 62 years.
Seen plenty of pot grown in backyards , so I know what the plant looks like , and alas , I also know the stench of it being smoked , guy next door is addicted to it and in summer months we can't have a window or door open without the stench invading our home (we happen to be downwind of him).
Cops and local councils destroy every cannabis plant they find , and what illicit plantations are eluding the rangers, and trial bike cops in remote hard to access areas of the valley don't last long in bushfire season.
No wild central bearded dragon in the hunter valley, the bearded dragons here are eastern bearded dragons and there is a lot of other herby stuff other than pot for them to munch on. BTW the Hunter Valley is bigger than many USA states and European countries , 11,252 sq miles.
So the "infestion" of hemp of 12 sq mi claimed in the Wiki article represents about 0.1 % of the area of the hunter valley , that was over 50 years ago , it's moved from hidden forest cannabis plantations to grow houses now ( easier to hide apparently ).
Strickly illegal to grow cannabis here in Australia , and illegal to have it in your possession.
If you want places where there are cannabis plantations hidden in the bush , the far north coast (Nimbin is the place for you , well maybe not as a they've had a boost in cop numbers and most the growers there and their dealers are now in prison.

In your uneducated opinion. That's the purpose of this thread, so we all can get educated on the matter. Don't scare people away and prevent us from learning. So far we have 0 confirmed cases of ill effect from consuming the plant (inhaling smoke is a different subject) and 2 separate accounts of no ill effects from eating the plant.
So how about you let people share their experience, stop judging people, and not demand that everyone think the same as you.

Also, pretty rude to once again question someones intelligence. Real strong of you.kingofnobbys":2al8gc49 said:Pretty clear Blue knows nothing about Australia or even the natural range of p.vitticepts
claudiusx":rzq3njww said:Like I said, just because you don't agree with it, doesn't mean you're right and everyone else is wrong.
Newsflash, lots of ways to care for and raise dragons, and not everyone has to do it exactly how you demand.
So lets let the people who have experience chime in, and let the people who don't have experience sit back and take it in.
Or do you have something against people posting their experiences? If so I suggest maybe just staying away from this thread if it bothers you so deeply.
Do you have evidence that consuming the leaves is harmful? Or is this now you being hand wavy without a scientific leg to stand on? :wink:

All blue stated about Australia was that weed can infact grow there. He posted a link stating that it had infact became invasive and took 9 years to eradicate, proving it can grow there. You also stated in your response that people do grow it in Australia too, despite police efforts. So everything he said about Australia was true...

Most of p.vitticep's natural range is in very sparcely populated (hippy free) and very dry territory.Sorry pal, no wild cannabis plants in central bearded dragon natural range , too hot, too dry......
