Finding an Adult Online?

[ash8591]

I have researched the most recommended breeders on this site. Unfortunately, it seems most online breeders only sell their babies. This will be my first beardie, so I want to make sure it is healthy and friendly. I am unsure as to whether buy one online or in the local pet shops. I've been looking at Craigslist, and the majority of owners on there do not even have UVB lights!! So, that's a no go. Any advice as to whether buying an adult in a local shop or online would be better? If online, any advice as to where to find a good breeder with tamed beardies?

I am currently looking at Reptiles by Mack.... Any opinions?

You might also check the For Free or For Sale sections on this board. I, too, wanted and adult and found Big Bertha under the For Free section. Of course, I paid to have her shipped, so she wasn't entirely free, but I got her from a person that was familiar with the site and with Beardie care. Bertha came to me fat and healthy, and she has been a wonderful pet ever since. :mrgreen:

I have some 9-month old dragons that I held back from last year that are now available.

Thanks, Laura. I'll try that.

Chief, what morph are they? Have you handled them to make them okay with being held? What diet are they on? And of course, how much? Thanks!!

Hi Ashlee. I sent you an email, but I will respond here as well.

They are a cross between a Citrus Snow (from F&I bloodlines) x Red-Headed Pastel (from Sandfire bloodlines). They are 50% het hypo.

They were handled every day a babies, as twice a week nowadays, and all are very friendly, tame, and love attention. Female #3 is the biggest sweetheart of the bunch. I have 1 male, and 2 females. The male is $250 shipped, and females are $275 shipped.

The have been eating Turnip Greens, Mustard Greens, Collard Greens, Dandelion Greens, Squash, and other veggies. Crickets, roaches, superworms, silkworms, and wax worms as treats.
