any beardie trade secrets anyone has for the new guy?

rugbyman2000 Nov 11, 2004 10:19 PM

Hey guys,
My reptile rescue, Forgotten Friend Reptile Sanctuary occasionally gets in bearded dragons so I know the basics about keeping them, even though I'm more knoweldgeable about snakes. Recently though, my wife and I decided to keep one of the beardies that came into the rescue for our rep-ed program.

Aside from reading all the care sheets out there (which I've done already) does anyone have any trade hints, tips, or secrets about keeping beardies that might not turn up on your standard care sheet? Now that I'm keeping one permanently, I really want to give it the best. Thanks!

Keep 'em hot and give 'em lots of space! They will use it. Its fun to watch a beardie romp through an enclosure that gives him room to climb, dig, spin and even dance if he wanted to

Love your beardie and he will love you too
