Tips For Raising Bearded Dragon Lizards

The bearded dragon lizard, this little reptile friend from eastern Australia, has a strong body and is covered with spine-like scales. Once it feels threatened, its throat will bulge, resembling a lion's thick beard, hence the name "maned dragon". Lion Lizard". If you want to raise this little friend well, you might as well listen to my feeding tips!

First of all, it is important to give it a comfortable home. You can choose a glass box, a PVC climbing box, or a wooden box as its breeding box, whichever suits you better!



Then, don’t forget to cover it with soft padding. Environmentally friendly leather pads and pet-changing pads are both good choices. If you want it to feel closer to the natural environment, you can also build an ecological climbing tank with sand to climb and branches for it to climb up and down.

Speaking of the environment, lighting is also very important! Because the bearded dragon is a cold-blooded animal, it needs light to regulate its body temperature. UVA lamps are used for daytime heating, while UVB lamps are like the sun, helping to replenish calcium. Remember to turn on the UVB light for 8 to 10 hours every day! As for the night light, it is used to keep it warm at night. If it is hot at night in summer, you don’t need to turn it on.



Of course, eating well is the last word! The staple food of bearded dragon lizards is various insects, either live or dried. I especially recommend the dried black soldier fly, which is nutritious and popular with little ones. It is also cost-effective and easy to buy. You can also give it some green vegetables every week for a change. Remember to adjust the amount and frequency of feeding according to its age and appetite!

In this way, your bearded dragon friend can grow up happily at home! Remember to observe its condition and adjust the feeding environment promptly so that it can feel your care!
