Hi everyone. First time beardie co owner. Yes, that's right, co owner. I will get to feed , clean, and pay all expenses while my better half has all the fun. lol
We're an older couple and had never considered a dragon. We attended a herp show to look at possibly getting a tortoise. While we were passing a rescue table we began to talk to a lady who had an adult bearded dragon on her shoulder and my wife was instantly smitten. We went back and forth... we were not prepared and did not want to make a rash decision so we left the show empty handed. After leaving the show we had to go by the pet store for dog food and the weirdest thing happened. Walking in at the same time as us was a young girl dressed up as Snow White (this is the day before Halloween) and she had an adult beardie on her shoulder. The wife and I looked at each other and asked if this was an omen. Inside the pet store we were looking at possible tanks and the sales girl that helped us had a beardie. Found out the 40 gal breeder tanks were on sale for $1 a gal. Yea, these were all signs. We went back to the Herp show and got the dragon along with crikets, super worms, proper lighting.... etc, etc.
The last 24 hrs I have been reading and reading. What a great experience it has been so far. (I really loved chasing crikets after opening the box not so carefully)
Don't know if its proper to ask a newbie question in my introductory post but.... is it OK to mix super worms in with their salad?
OK, back to reading I go. Will get a picture of our Sampson up soon.
