    Always Sleeping in Enclosure

    Hello! I have a (presumably) 2 year old bearded dragon and have had him for about 4 months now. I say presumably because he was adopted and that’s what we were told, he’s definitely an adult but I wonder if he’s a bit older. Anyways he is a pretty active fellow… when he’s out of his enclosure...

    Am I being paranoid or should i genuinely be concerned?

    I got my dragon on June 12 2021 and it is currently June 16. Over the last few days I’ve been detailing his behaviour and I’m beginning to worry. I was provided with an inaccurate set up and I’m trying to remedy that now. The first day we had him he ate a good amount of crickets and seemed...

    Hi! I’m a new bearded dragon owner. I got my little dude last Friday, so I’ve only had him for four days.
