This thread is for the folks who don't know how to cut dragon nails perhaps this picture will help you. you can use rodent nail trimmers for 11months and younger and for 1 year and over you can use dog nail trimmers. And pls dont cut your dragons nails if theres none below the white part(aka the nerve)

Thanks Mango, that should help some curious owners. :) They can check youtube videos as well to actually watch as someone cuts their beardie's nails.

I have a dragon that is 3 yrs old and never had his nails cut. His nails are quite long and only about 1/8 inch beyond the white part. Is it possible to do anything now to shorten his nails?

i'd cut them as suggested above and just keep at it. if it is an issue of causing problems walking, a vet could cut back further and then cauterize to stop the bleeding. i wouldn't suggest doing that at home though.

Sir Henry the dragon
Looking for his dragon girl
Ventures out in to the wide world
His hopes are up but as you can see
There is no dragon girl for Sir Henry
A light bulb goes off and he takes mom aside
Could you perchance get me a mail order bride ?

Hi there a little update we went from a 50 watt heat lamp to a 100 watt basking halogen heat lamp hahaha I saw some comments about it being so close so I made sure to put it a ruler away from her
Has anyone seen this before? Something in the corner of his mouth
