Do you ever worry that you will offend someone by offering them advice about their beardie?
This weekend we were at a party, and I had Louie with me, and a friend had their beardie with them. They told me it gets bathed once a week, is housed with sand, and only protein it gets are mealworms.
Well, at first I didn't want to say anything...kind of like telling someone how to parent their child.. But, I knew I had to speak up for the poor beardies sake!
I told them I wanted to offer advice, without offending them or sounding like a know-it-all. The seemed very receptive to making the changes ( no sand, more baths, better proteins, etc).
Sometimes when I see pictures of people on here with their beardies living in sand, I tell them how bad it is and my experience with it ( Louie having a belly full of sand, paracites, etc).
Sometimes I feel like I should just keep my mouth shut, in order to not offend anyone on how they are raising their beardies.
What are your thoughts/advice.... Feel free to tell me ANYTHING! I won't be offended...if it's for the good health of my beardie, I would want to know.
