Yes, bearded dragons can safely drink distilled water, but it should not be their primary source of hydration as it lacks essential minerals that they need. It is recommended to provide them with a combination of distilled water and water that has been treated with reptile-safe water conditioner to ensure they receive necessary nutrients.
Probably because Bearded Dragons would never submergethemselves in water, in their natural environment ! Bearded dragons are desert species ! The nearest they would get to water - would be to drink !
No - Bearded Dragons get most of their moisture from the crickets they eat, and only require water for drinking if THEY want to drink it. You CANNOT force a reptile to drink if it doesn't want to !
Bearded Dragons DO NOT need to swim ! They are a DESERT species - native to central desert area of AUSTRALIA ! The only time they need to be anywhere near water - is to drink !
No they don't ! They barely even drink water as they get almost all the moisture they need from their food !
It'll drink when it's READY ! They don't necessarily drink every day, as they get a lot of moisture from the food they eat.
Bearded Dragons don't NEED a bath ! They are a desertspecies, who's natural home is the dry central area of Australia ! They would never seek out water to 'bathe' in, in their natural habitat - unless they wanted to drink it !
In the wild from the dew on cactuses and shallow water pools. In captivity us humans give them baths and water to drink.
They don't have holes to drink. Bearded Dragons are mostly like us. They have nostrils on their nose to breath from and holes on the side of their heads (ears) to hear from. When a Beardies drinks it pushes it's nose into the water and laps like a dog does. Or in the case of a wild Beardie stands under a plant and lets the dew drop from the leaves onto it's nose then licks it's nose for the water. Actually, bearded dragons also have pores in their skin through which they absorb water. That's why it's important for them to have a bath once a week to ensure that they are well hydrated in addition to offering water to drink.
You should not drink distilled water as it lacks minerals which are beneficial for us.Make a solution of the salt in distilled water.
i own both, they are the only reptiles i own, but i would have too say it depends on what you want. bearded dragons eat allot( about 6locusts a day) you bath them at least once a week they need allot of social time with you, and get scared easily, puffing out it bearded that will go black when scared. but they get too know you, you bond with them, and they get too love you, they also are awake at day (leopard gecko's are nocturnal) so you can watch them during the day rather than watching a sleeping gecko they need the vets allot more than gecko's Leopards gecko's eat about 1-2 locusts a day never need a bath but you can give them one. (bearded dragons need a bath as they do not drink out of a bowl, and a bath encourages them too drink) hardly ever need the vets can be left weeks without being handled and still be friendly, never get scared, never bite. do not bond with you, do not really care about you or who is feeding them. RE:actually bearded dragons CAN drink out of a bowl but they have to get inside the bowl to drink it so it has to be BIG
they drink more than500g
