are you getting or have a baby? how old?

That's an amazing enclosure!! PERFECT for an adult beardie! You can use them for younger dragons as well. What the are talking about when they mention large tanks is that it can look threatening to a newly homed beardie. maybe you can find a way to section off some of the tank until it's ready for the whole thing?

I dont know weather to buy it or not because i am 15yrs old and I am only getting 500 and I dont want to spend 400 of my money idk Should i would you?

 

[ErinMeetsMachine]

Probably not then. There are plenty of other enclosures that you can find. Do you have any of the other things for the set up?

It'd be nice to have some of the money on hand in case you needed to get something else for your dragon that you didn't have. Let me know what all you have so far!

Do you already have a dragon or are you looking to get one soon? What age dragon do you have/are you looking for?

Well I am planning to get a bearded dragon around late apirl when I turn 16 and have a job so I can support my beardie myself. So far I have like a 20 gal tank only and with the 500 I am getting i was planning to buy books a bigger enclosure and save the rest. Also Apirl 29 is my birthday and my parents and family are going to give me money and I was thinking of wasting all of that for decor and other needed equipment for the beardie.

Awesome, good plan. Let us know if you have any questions at all about products to buy or set ups.

Also, I would skip on the book. Some of the information is outdated or possibly even incorrect. I would stick to these forums. Read threads, ask question. That's how I got all my information. If you take no other advice right now, take that one!

 

[ChiTownns]

Thanks ive been planning for months.
But the book I want is called Your Bearded Dragon Life by Liz Pailika Idk Something

 

[ErinMeetsMachine]

I guess it wouldn't hurt, but I'd still suggest looking up additional information on here.. maybe even comparing notes!

 

[ChiTownns]

But Yeah so what do you think about morphs?

 

[ErinMeetsMachine]

they're beautiful. If you want to see some really unique looking dragons look at bloodbankdragons.com.

Do you know where you're getting your dragon from yet? pet store or breeder?

 

[ChiTownns]

I was thinking of a online breeder most likely to be a morph. Bloodbanks I dont really like those colors I am more red yellow orange white grey guy lol Idk which ones are your favorite

 

[ErinMeetsMachine]

all of them! I have one that I thought was a normal, but turns out she is a citus with lavendar bars.

I'm looking into getting a rescue right now, hopefully it works out. He lost all of his limbs and most of his tail. I have a special interest in the handicapped dragons.

I think the rest of my dragons that I get will be rescues.

 

[ChiTownns]

Oh thats great and its a nice thing you are doing. I dont even know what the names stand for lol at all. Do you know how big a german giant gets and you know how their are so many species of beardies are all of them playful
