Hey, I just wanted to offer some tips on saving money on your bearded dragons.
1) TERRARIUM. Avoid buying online. I got my exo terra terrarium about $150 cheaper in store than online. At petco they sometimes have sales where you can buy terrariums for 1$ per gallon. In the "enclosures" forum you can find more info on that.
2) FOOD. At tractor supply co. you can get about a half gallon bag of natural freeze dried mealworms. "hen treats" is what they are called and I got mine for about ten bucks. You can also get a small and large sized bag and I would recommend the large as these are freeze dried and won't go bad.
3) LIGHTING. Again, go to tractor supply. They sell lights made for keeping chickens warm in winter. They are just heat bulbs. They sell red and white for about four dollars. They also sell the fixtures for much cheaper than the pet stores.
This was all recommended to me by a local breeder and I used these tips to save money on my own dragon. I'm glad I knew this and I hope it helps you. Thanks!
