Vacation without my dragons?

[broozersfam]

I was wondering what should i do with my babies while we are gone for 3 days. My normal pet sitter will be away as well. Should i try and find another sitter for them and risk having my house robbed or can i feed them something that will tide them over intil we are back? It will only be 3 days. I have the lights on a timer so that shouldn't be an issue. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.

Alot of pet stores offer a pet sitting service. You drop them off there and pick them up when you return, no need to worry about your house getting robbed.

I'll look into it at Petsmart here since i visit that place so often i'm on a first name basis with the reptile folks there! LOL Thank you.

Depending on if it is going to a be a full three days or different (leaving Monday afternoon, gone Tuesday, coming back Wed afternoon type thing), you could just leave them with pellets and fresh vegetables and dehydrated vegetables and some worms and ask a relative, friend, or family member to check on them. Just an idea. If it is going to be a full three days then that is different. It also depends on the age of your Beardie and the general health of your BD. Adults require different daily care than other stages, also a healthy BD requires less care than nursing one back to health.

Thank you. All 3 of my beardies are NOT babies, i guess you would say they are teenagers! LOL We would be leaving in the evening on a friday and coming back on a sunday afternoon. It would be around the time of July 4th and i was wondering if the noise would bother them or not. Guess i still have time to figure out what to do. Thanks for all the suggestions!
