    Help, bearded dragon outside over night.

    Yup, we have the wide hole type screen with the light fixture sitting on top placed 8-10 inches from the basking decor. Lighting covers 3/4th the length of the cage. We were building a larger custom enclosure for him that is almost finished. Just been letting it air out from where I made custom...

    Help, bearded dragon outside over night.

    I’m using the T10 HO 24 inch UVB, installed in Nov 2021, so only 5 months old. Basking temps hover between 94-102 depending on ambient room temp. I’m thinking spring fever/mating season since nothing has been changed in his habitat or with his diet. He was eating/pooping normally and nothing...

    Help, bearded dragon outside over night.

    He started acting off a few days before he got loose. He was puffing his beard a lot, glass surfing, and his beard would turn jet black & puff out his beard and open his mouth when I would try to handle him. I don’t know if that’s because of him hitting maturity: puberty, spring? I felt so...

    Help, bearded dragon outside over night.

    Yesterday my 11 month old bearded dragon escaped outside and ran into our woods at about 2pm when it was 70 degrees F outside. We searched the woods and couldn’t find him. Temp dropped down to 41 degrees F last night. Today at around 2pm, I went back out into the woods to look for him and I...

    Thank you, the pet store had her labeled as a red morph. Though I’m not too sure. She or maybe he (starting to think sunny might be a male now that they have grown up a bit) does have some beautiful red, orange and yellow coloring.

    First time bearded dragon owner, I have Q’s about diet, poop, and lighting.

    Thank you for the tip. I considered moving it inside but with the tank only being 18 inches tall and her basking decor being only 7-8inches from the screen, I was worried about it being too strong since the Reptisun T5 10.0 HO has a distance penetration of 18-22inches and the screen on her tank...

    First time bearded dragon owner, I have Q’s about diet, poop, and lighting.

    Thank you so much for the input and quick response. I like that the bulb had a place to write in the date, so I made sure to write the date that I installed it so that I can know exactly when it's due for a change. You've been super helpful. I'll go over that nutrition link and see if there are...

    Sunny the master of avoiding her greens!

    Oh my gosh, what an insult to the chef! I’m glad I haven’t experienced that yet! Lol Sunny hates her poop, she goes in the same far corner of her tank every day and once she finishes her business she scurries up her log and refuses to come down until I’ve properly cleaned up her poop area...

    First time bearded dragon owner, I have Q’s about diet, poop, and lighting.

    I’m so happy to have found this forum. I’ve been reading and watching lots of YouTube videos to try to make sure that I am giving my little bearded dragon the best care possible. I keep running into some conflicting information and I’m worried I might not be doing things correctly. I’m sorry if...

    Oops sorry for all the typos. Typing from phone and screen is small, should have proof read.

    Sunny the master of avoiding her greens!

    I haven’t tried the hornworms yet but I did do silk worms which she loves to eat but still managed to avoid her salad. I’ll try horn worms next. The standard remedies of bee pollen, fruits, fruit juices have yielded no results for me. I typically give her turnip greens, mustard greens, collard...

    Sunny the master of avoiding her greens!

    This is Sunny our 5 month old (estimating based on her current size) female bearded dragon. We got her when she was just 6inches long in August of this year. She’s now 12 inches long and weighs 84 grams. This week marks 3 months with her and she is so full of personality! Here is a pic of her...

    Welcome to BeardedDragonForum.com!

    Hi, im new to this forum and I’ve tried several times to make posts asking for help but it says my threads are awaiting approval. It’s been a month since I first submitted a thread. Is it normal for new comers to wait that long to have a post approved or am I doing something wrong?

    Help with super picky bearded dragon (won’t eat greens)

    Ok, so I’ve been reading through a lot of really great threads on here about bearded dragon diet and tips on getting them to eat salads. I’ve tried everything I’ve read to try and get my 5 month old beardy to eat her salads. Here’s my problem. She will only eat two bites of butternut squash or...
