Bearded Dragon Care Guide

Bearded Dragon Information

Behavior

Bearded Dragons are one of the friendliest reptiles and have excellent temperaments. Most bearded dragons love attention and being handled, although the amount of handling is dependent on your bearded dragon’s personality. They are docile and diurnal, which means they are active during the day and sleep at night!

Lifespan & Size

Like many pet reptiles, Bearded dragons can live on average from 6-14 years in a home environment. They also are a bit larger than smaller alternatives growing to be about 16-24 inches long!

Diet

Bearded Dragons are Omnivores! As babies, they eat a diet that is weighted more on the insect side; however, it is vital to introduce and feed your bearded dragon greens as a baby so they are not reluctant to eat greens as an adult. As bearded dragons grow, their diet switches to a mainly green diet with insects as a supplement.

There are many suitable options to feed your bearded dragon. Our favorite insect options are crickets, dubias, and superworms, and our favorite green options are collard greens, kale, mustard greens, etc. & bearded dragon-safe vegetables. You can pick these up at your local grocery store. Here at Pet Central, we buy their greens & veggies at the beginning of the week, chop them up, and store them in containers for easy and quick feeding throughout the week!
