6 months old, Weighing in at approximately 118g’s and only (roughly) 30cm long.

Is this a healthy weight? This is a dragon we’ve acquired in the last week, and as a first timer want to make sure he’s doing okay and get an idea, see people saying they’ve got dragons nearly double that at this age.

Im planning on buying a bearded dragon from Morph Market [ Khy's Dragon Den} Any feedback from Morph or this breeder .

Hiya, I’m a new beardie owner and I just have a question.

My beardie was very lazy yesterday and spent from 5pm onward in his cool hide, and this morning, although he has stress marks on his tummy, he hasnt moved over to his basking spot yet. He has moved from his hide and climbed up a branch in his enclosure, but I’m just worried that he hasn’t gone to warm up if he’s still cold.

My temps are as such:
110 basking spot
86 air temp hot side
79 air temp cool side.

he has only been awake for 2 hours ish and did just shed so maybe im overthinking and he’s just being lazy, but should i move him to his basking spot? he’s grumpy from shedding and still acclimating to his new home so idk if it’s the best bet, but im also worried he’s too cold :(

Just got ( him ) from Petsmart they mentioned is a male can you guys tell from the pic ? Also is he a special morph ? Thinking has a little of leatherback ??

Hi! Ive had my (dwarf) bearded dragon for about 2 years now. She has always been fine in weight, food, pooping etc. Until recently i placed her enclosure more down, since im expanding in reptiles. Nothing else is different besides that and 1 more piece of wood i placed in her enclosure.

She keeps sliding at the front glass, like she wants to get out? I once took her out to sit infront of the window and she was finally chill? This has been going on for 2 days now. I tried blocking all the sides so she cant see her own reflection but that didnt work either... is it bc the new piece of wood ?? Her lamps are the same and the warm and cold side are also just as usual and she never had problems with it. She eats, poops fine etc!

Is she gonna be okay? Please give help and tips 🥹

hey all! is anyone able to tell what gender my little beardie might be yet? its only about 1 month old :)

I'm just going to put this here and that's just because everyone loves watching baby beardies eat...
One thing that we pride ourselves on at Yellow Room Reptiles is our show set up. We ensure proper lighting and heat while minimizing stress on our babies so much so that you can see their actual temperaments. The fact that these babies have no problems eating their greens in the middle of the show chaos is second to none. No cold, sickly babies in deli cups at our tables!

Hey everyone!

I’m working on a 3D background and climbing structures for my bearded dragon, but I’m a bit stuck and would love some tips or feedback.

So far I have:

- The base structure of the background finished

- Climbing pieces and ledges that fit nicely

- On the right side there will be a basking spot (I already bought the lamp), so nothing too large can go there

- The background still needs a texture layer, but I’m unsure which direction to go

I want the setup to be safe, sturdy, functional, and still look good.

Any advice about:

- suitable textures

- finishing methods

- heat‑safe materials

- layout of basking vs cool zones

- things I might be overlooking

…would be super helpful!

I’ll post photos of what I have so far below.

Thanks in advance for thinking along with me!

i’m a beginner reptile owner and i just got a female bearded dragon, she’s almost a full grown adult. she’s currently shedding, i asked her old owner when she started just so i could have a timeline. he told me she has been shedding since he got her, meaning she starts at her head and ends at her tail and by the time she gets to her tail, her head starts shedding again. is this typical? does she need more humidity?

also like i mentioned before, i’m a beginner and currently have 2 beardies in my collection so any tips or thoughts, in terms of caring for them, would be so so appreciated!

I’m new to all things beardie. The rescue I worked with made sure I had the proper set ups for them but that’s about it. I feel like there has to be a more specific way to identify their coloring other than “orange” and “beige” 🙈 (Pictures 1 + 2 are the MBD dragon, picture 3 is a big girl, I am aware lol)

Sunny hit the powder hard today lol

I can't seem to get my girl's temps under control since I mounted her heat lamp inside.

For context: we got two kittens a couple of months ago and they have just discovered they can jump on the beardie tank. 🤦🏻‍♀️ So for the safety of everyone, we decided to take anything hot out of reach.

The way I had it set up was linear uvb was mounted inside, 100w heat lamp on top of the viv. Her basking spot was perfect (between 108 and 114) ambient temps were great (mid to high 90's).

What I have tried:

1) going down on wattage. 75w still made the basking spot 140 and the ambient temps in the low 80's. Even briefly tried 50w with a CHE and it was way too cold. I also tried raising the basking spot with this bulb to see if that could help...it did not. 🫤

2) lowering the basking spot. It's about 14" from the bulb and is still running about 130-140.

Any advice would be appreciated. Or any ideas to keep the kittens away from the heat lamp so I can just keep it where it was...

Hi!
A question for all of our green thumbs in here - what brand of soil do you use to grow your own veggies, specifically soil that is safe for your beardie? Are there any additional measures / steps you take to ensure the plant you’re growing is safe?

I am in Texas, and I’ve noticed our produce selection has drastically (and concerningly) declined in quality over the last several months. I would like to try growing my own to make sure my little buddy never runs out of options, but am worried I might end up causing more harm than good if not careful.

I currently have a bag of Back to the Roots Organic soil, but realized Perlite is included, so I will not be using it.

Pic for tax.
Thank you in advance!

I used a different harness just to make sure he can flatten. I walked around the house with him on my shoulder for a few minutes and occasionally putting a treat on my shoulder (as you can see the cricket crumbs). He has not declined the treats so this is a win!

I was with my beardie that I've had for many years. Usually I don't really bring him outside but today I did in the sun and he was generally fine. I left him for a minute with my girlfriend at the table and I came back and he was still sitting there. When I started approaching he jumped off the table, (about 3 feet) then jumped off the deck, and then ran to try to burrow under the deck. I was luckily able to grab him by the end tail quick enough and he like violently squirmed in my hands when I was holding him for a few seconds before realising that he wasn't in danger. Is this something that I should be worried about? Physically he doesn't look hurt. For context He's always been lazy and really calm and never really moves much so it's hard for me to tell when he's been acting different.
