Dragons like to be played with.If you have a dog or cat put them out or put them a room.Careful when playing with him to not step on him.Your bearded dragon may go to the light to get warm.Or go under something to go to sleep.
Bearded dragons eat a variety of foods. They eat crickets, grasshoppers,worms, grubs, grass, tomatoes, lettuce,baby spinach and much more.
Bearded dragons have very good eyesight and can see up to 120 feet away. They see in full color.
Beardies have a pineal eye, almost like a third eye which is located on top of their heads. It helps detect sunlight and release hormones.
Beardies are very interesting and fun pets. They will sometimes hold onto your hand when you try to put them back into their cage.
Their beard is intended to make them look bigger.
Beardies will sometimes wave their arms. This is a sign of submission in smaller beardies.
Female beardies may produce over one hundred eggs per year.
Bearded dragons can change their color slightly.
A bearded dragon that looses it’s tail, will not grow another one like most lizards.
Bearded Dragons come from Australia, where it is now illegal to own or export beardies.

If you want your beardy to drink make it smell like berries.It will get used to it and think it will stay like it.
Bearded dragons spikes are not realy hard.
Beardies may lick things this is one way they smell things.

What type of reptiles make the best pets? My personal favorite is the Bearded Dragon. I’ve had many types of lizards and snakes, but none have had the personality that my bearded dragon has. He is very friendly, curious and easy to take care of.
The biggest problem with a bearded dragon (or any type of reptile) is finding food for them. Beardys are easy because they mainly eat insects, fruits and vegetables. Crickets are the staple food for them, along with fresh greens. These are all easy to come by.
Beardys love attention. I’ll post some pictures and video of mine playing soon.
Bearded dragons are just right for a beginer.
you should not buy a bearded dragon from a pet store.
