Here are the essentials for a Bearded Dragons cage Bearded Dragons must have at least two sources of heat. They need a long UVB light lamp and a heat lamp with at least a 60 watt bulb. You must maintain at least 80 degrees in its terrarium. The UVB bulb is important because it supplies vitamins and other nutrients that the sun gives off, but never place the terrarium in direct sunlight. For the flooring you should use sand or small rocks, but if you have a baby bearded dragon you should use terrarium liner. Terrarium liner is easier to clean. The babies do not pay much attention to what they are eating, so when they ingest sand they will digest their intestines and die. They also need plants such as cactus, long grass, and plants you may find in a dessert, but try not to put any more than four plants. Remember, make the terrarium as close to a dessert biome as you can. You may want to put a dessert back drop, because if the terrarium is near a mirror, the lizard may get confused and might try to attack his reflection and will result in him hurting himself. Last, you must place a dish of water in the cage, also place either small or large crickets, flightless fruit flies, and/or meal worms in the cage. All of these items may seem pricey, but I believe it is worth it. Most of these supplies can be purchased at Pet Co and Pet Smart.

Bearded dragons are not native to Arizona so it is either a pet that got loose, or it isn't a bearded dragon. I see no reason it would be illegal to have since they are native only to Australia.

NO. They will kill/eat each other !

Lizards eat anything they can handle, including smaller lizards. There are no lizards that have specialized feeding on other lizards, they catch smaller individuals only opportunistically. This is called cannibalism.

I may not own one but I plan on getting one and i did research.I found out..YES a bigger bearded dragon will eat a smaller one if they are both males

DO NOT FEED THEM MAGGOTS. not meaning to be harsh, but maggots hold lots of bacteria, even if they are bred. they eat dead or rotten animals, or plants, but whatever they eat, your beardie eats, and your beardie could get very sick

Maybe because you're warm.

Yes, they are very rich in nutrients and full of protein without a hard chitin shell that can be hard to digest like mealworms and superworms. The blue color looks a little strange but they are fine. Some Dragons don't like them as much as others, so I would just get one or two from your local supply store if possible to try it out, and I still wouldn't make it a staple, but as a treat once a week or so would be fine.

They have small hairs on their chin (flot). Even though people say dragons are mystical, the Bible talks a lot about mystical creatures in revelation. Just thought I should say that>>>

Absolutely NOT ! Those two lizards are from completely different eco systems and should NEVER be housed together !

Trying to put them together would result in stress for BOTH of them - probably resulting in health issues, loss of appetite and eventually death !

no in fact the bearded dragon will eat the fly.

Well - it's never done MY reptiles any harm in the 25 plus years I've been keeping them. I'd recommend warming the water (to room temperature) when you replenish it - just so the lizard doesn't drink cold water. Other than that - it'll be fine.

Yes you do ! ALL cage 'furniture' should be washed thoroughly in a weak solution of something like 'Milton fluid' (the stuff they sterilize bottles with) - then rinse THOROUGHLY before allowing to dry naturally.

bearded dragons can gasp for air if they have respiratory issues which can be caused by high humidity or a cold environment. Bearded dragons are from Australia and living in dry hot areas.

yes but we usually feed it lettice and mean worms or crickets

If you get a Bearded dragon lizard it requires a lot of different lamps and every day you must take it out of the cage and spend time with it ,wich they sort of just lay on you, or it will become very very mean and uncontrollable The answer to the actual question is they are much happier together

Bearded dragons use their tongues for many purposes. For example, they stick their tongue out to "taste" danger or prey in the air - they can literally "taste" a predator creeping up on them from behind, just by sticking their tongues out. Snakes do the same.

When they stick their tongues out, particles in the air, such as odour particles, latch onto the sensitive tongue. When the tongue is returned to the mouth, chemical receptors in the mouth "process" and identify the particles and determine whether food or danger is nearby.

Most reptiles, bearded dragons included, have a very poor sense of smell. This is why they use their tongues to "taste" what is around them, rather than smelling.

So, when your bearded dragons lick each other, they are actually smelling each other, in a friendly way.

"Oh hello, where you been?"

"The other end of the tank"

*Lliicckkkk* - "Wow tastes great up that end of the tank!"

NO! Do not get another one! Even though they are chill and passive around other household pets, they HATE other bearded dragons! So whatever you do, DO NOT GET ANOTHER ONE!!!! They might mate, attack, get threatened, and become stressed! You should definitely just stick with one!

If it does seem lonely there may be manny reasons why. It could be going through brumation, it isn't getting enough attention (this is not a good nor bad thing) so you could just take it out, show it outside, explore! Beardies love adventures but don't be afraid if it starts licking you, it just knows your scent! If you're scared that it might bite you, give it time! Start slowly by letting it just sit on you hands while it's still in the cage, it considers that it's home and safety. If it falls asleep on you then it's comfortable with you. If it closes it's eyes when you pet it, that means it doesn't like it and you should put it down and try another time. Try to pet in the middle right above their eyes, that's their favorite spot! Lastly, if your bearded dragon seems lonely, that's completely normal! They're the King Of Chill, so don't worry! Just whatever you DO NOT GET ANOTHER BEARDED DRAGON, that's just asking for chaos! I hope this helped!

yes bearded dragons do eat live food from the garden such as worms and defiantly crickets they also eat dead fly and other insects like that

Do you mean to its owner? The only one I can think of is the potential for the owner to contract salmonella from its skin, which can easily be avoided by washing one's hands after handling the lizard or putting one's hands in its cage. Otherwise, these friendly pets are anything but harmful! With very few exceptions, bearded dragons never bite or claw, and actually enjoy being handled. I have owned one for years, handling him regularly and feeding him by hand, and haven't gotten a scratch.

No. But what i feed my bearded dragons, is super worms, meal worms, and crickets. Sometimes my family picks up a worm from the wild and feed it to them and so far, it never harmed my bearded dragons. So far, they ate grub worms and earth worms.

It will not move for some time, be careful though it could be hibernating. Also pick it up, it will feel the warmth of your hand and stir if alive if not try moving its leg / tail, if nothing probably deep or deeply hibernating. If it goes stiff after awhile then dead : (
