Hi guys! Don't forget to check the description for more information and useful resources. ALSO, I'm curious. Since beardies can be picky, what are your bearded dragon's favorite foods?
My rescue beardie loves strawberries and Dubia roaches, and my bearded dragon I raised HATES roaches even though he was raised on them and will only eat worms. So he gets silk worms since that’s the only worm that won’t make him obese
I don’t have a bearded dragon but this video was really informative! Maybe I’ll be able to use it in the future when I get a beardie of my own! PS. Thanks for shouting me out!
@@ellesreptiles I don’t have a. Beardie but, I will be one soon end of the mouth but, I do have a snapping turtle but I will get a beardie my father and my mother used to have a lot of reptiles
Scraggy is an adult, and every time I give him a salad with no bugs in it, he looks at me with a very clear "wtf is this?" look. He'll eat about half of it anyway, but this guy just hates his veggies and loves his meat
@@Faliat yeah one of the dragons went to the vet today. She gained weight so they think she might have something going in with 🥚. Reccomendd getting a calcium sandbox in case she wants to dig In life you always have to look out for the creatures, big or small..
Bearded dragons are some of the best eaters of all reptile pets. I have never had a real picky eater. They are well known for being great for first time reptile owners. And their appetite is one of the reasons why.
Bee pollen is amazing. It is basically the only way mine cares about her greens. Another tip if yours isn't eating is to check your temps with a temp gun. If it isn't hot enough or you don't have the proper 10.0 UVB lighting, they can't properly digest their food and may not eat. Mine went through this and also had parasites, but some meds from the vet fixed her up and she is doing well now. You have to get your bugs from a reliable source so they hopefully won't have parasites.
Yes! Proper temps and UVB are definitely important. I forgot to mention that, but 1000x yes! 😊 Also getting feeders from good sources is another thing I forgot to mention - of course 🤦🏽♀️. I'll put that in the description box now. Thanks! 😊
Improper UVB when they're young will lead to metabolic bone disease too which unfortunately happens to a lot of beardies because people don't know how to properly take care of them.
I would recommend crickets from rainbow mealworms, they don’t stink in the slightest, and they live as long as they’re supposed to, they don’t just die right away
My 4 month old beardy eats about 25 small dubias each sitting, twice a day. Occasionally a superworm. Edit: Forgot to mention also 3-5 wax worms per meal 2 year update: She is severely overweight. The wax worms were a bad idea as a staple. Hindsight is 20/20 but I'd suggest to anyone reading this to get your beardie interested in veggies as early as possible
I got my beardie when I was 10 (I’m now 14) and for the first 3yrs of his life he lived on kale and hoppers, because we got him from a chain petstore and my parents didn’t do any research (and I was *10* ) will he be okay?? He now has a super varied diet, yellow and red bell peppers, strawberries (as a treat), sometimes tomato, carrots, apples and bak Choi mixed up for his frequent meals. Always dusted with nutri-ball (a calcium balancer and vitamin boost) and sometimes calci-dust, Dubia Roches and sometimes hoppers.
Yeah I went to a petstore when I was ten and they talked me into getting a leopard gecko. He died. Because all they told me was frozen meal worms. And that is all he got. Luckily a year ago I got another gecko and he is doing great
I feed my bearded dragon seven to ten super worms every other day and a salad including a variety of vegetables everyday. About once a week, I’ll give him apples, apricots, and his favorite, blackberries. Do you think this is a good diet for my bearded dragon? I would really appreciate your advice.
I know I'm late but I just wanted to say I don't have a beardie but I'm researching till I know I'm ready for one . I'm also in the middle of convincing my parents for one . Oh also by the way I'm using my mother's account lol
So I just got my bearded dragon should I feed my bearded dragon vegetables and fruits in the morning and then for night time worms and things of that nature? And how often do I feed my bearded dragon?
Feed it once a day because they honestly won’t eat all of it at once 😂, you can feed them worms any time and at max a day probably 5 or 3 you can feed it in the morning is what I do so mine can eat around the day when he wants.
I don’t have one yet. I am getting one in a couple of weeks. I am nervous and excited as I have never done this before. But don’t beat yourself up you now have learnt ♥️♥️
I live in the uk,, are collard greens the same name over here or not because I can’t seem to find them anywhere. I’ve grown dandelion greens but it’d be easier to buy stuff from shops for if I run out
This video and all the links you added were super helpful! Thank you for explaining it super clearly. I’m interested in a bearded dragon and was scared at first but the way you explained it was very relieving
Is there a certain time of the day to feed them? Like do they need two hours under the light when waking up before eating ? And do they need 2 hours to digest after eating in the evening?
If you have a good reflective bulb shade for your uvb then it should retain light for a good while during the night, mimicking the moon light so I can't imagine that being a problem. I'm no expert just been pulling in as much info myself as I can over the vast week since I had to start taking care of my lil bros dragon.
One question, so if I live in Florida, I can’t own any Dubia Roaches in captivity, because I know part of the reason of it being illegal is that they can not survive because of the temperature, though the website lists Florida as an acceptable shipping address. Any info would help
We've been talking about getting a beardie and I've just been devouring your videos! Thank you so much for all the great info! I was wondering about possibly adopting a rescue (I found a few places that do this) and was wondering if you had any thoughts on this? I'm just wondering whether a beardie can bond with a new owner after having had a different one. Thanks in advance
I had a very huge question if you could help me ??🙁like I have a small bearded dragon he’s about a juvenile still and idk what to feed him daily like he doesn’t like the flower type of food at the store I buy at petco and I just bought the calcium powder and Dubai roaches not to long ago about 2 days ago and I did it BECUASE a couple of my friends noticed he twitched and told me I need to give him that I just want to make him feel better and healthy am I doing SOEMTHING wrong I bath him quit often
Big tip make sure you have enough income to even get and maintain a bearded dragon as long as you have money your bearded dragon should be pretty happy.
Great info. The water fountain is not good for them. Infact even waterdishes in general are controversial. They are from dry climates and water in the ta k raises the humidity often giving the respiratory infections. I water min with the sink. She drinks right from the faucet and gets water from baths, zucchini and other watery foods. Cheers and thank you for the detailed video
SUCH a helpful video for being on day 3 of having a new bearded dragon. I can't thank you enough for this video! I could NOT believe it: The pet store told me he'd only eat once a day, and maybe 5 crickets at most, cause he's just a little guy. WELL, after seeing this, I quickly went back up to feed him, and he downed 10 of them. TEN! And now I only have 3 left for the rest of the week... guess I'm about to go buy more. *LOL!* Again, thank you so much for all this eye opening info! Leo also has a lot of black lines down his belly / body, but his coloring is also very, very strong, and the "chin" area isn't black, just speckled. I'm unsure if he's stressed or not. Maybe he was cause I wasn't feeding him enough?
I have a 3 year old bearded dragon she gets a bigsalad every after noon never tried roaches or worms she gets crickets tho once every week I just buy mine online she's not a big fan of bugs tho but she loves her salad I make sure to put purple cabbage (it's her favorite) never had a pet before her but i try my hardest I'm always looking for room to improve so this video was very helpful I really want to look into these things and see what she likes
I just have to ask because I know this video is years old. So studies could’ve changed but Are you still using this list for bearded dragons feeding? Because I seen it mentioned on the feeding list to feed iceberg daily and I’ve heard iceberg is bad for the bearded dragons due to being a catalyst for diarrhea ? So now I’m wondering is it bad to feed them iceberg or not?
Hey guys! I’m a new bearded dragon owner! And I have a question. :) Ok so.... I’ve heard of veggie soaks for turtles and other reptiles, and I was wonder if beardies could get them too? As like just an add-on to their care. Would it be beneficial in any way, or is it just not needed ATALL? Sorry if this was a dumb question... 😅 I just would love to spoil my lil girl as much as possible! 😂🥰
I'm gonna be getting my first beardie soon, so me and my dad have been doing as much research as we can to ensure it stays happy and healthy, and this guide was very informative!! ^^
That's what I thought I'm new at this just making sure I have read so much It's confusing one person says one thing and another will tell you That's wrong. 🤪
My 6 month old bearded dragon doesn’t eat much at all? Around 2/3 roaches a day and some days he doesn’t eat.. plus he rarely touches his veggies?! I don’t know what to do any advice ?! His temperature in the enclosure is around 35 degrees Celsius.
We just got my kids two bearded dragons today and your list started great but went on and on and on and now I’m thinking I just should have had two more kids. Goodnight!
Hi Elle, in need of help here. My beardie is 3 years old and I got him when I was relatively young and didn’t really know how to take care of him. I now feed him a pretty good diet, he eats collard greens, dubia roaches, and crickets the majority of the time, but also enjoys rehydrated veggies as a treat. I fear i’m not feeding him enough because he stops eating after a little while (like 3 or 4 roaches and a medium size strip of collard green leaf and he’s full). How do I know if he’s a healthy weight?
Sorry about The Dubia Dude. I just checked him website and he is selling large Dubia Roaches @ .52 cents each. That’s twice as much a buyer can pay if he checks out other sellers on the internet. You stated that he had good prices on Dubia Roaches; yes very good for his own pocket. 👎🏻
hi, not sure if youll see this! but i have a friend who’s had this bearded dragon for over a year or two and i held him today and he’s really skinny. i fed him some grape and he was crazy about it. he was just really skinny and it made me uncomfortable and sad. i don’t want her to think i’m being a know it all for being concerned and trying to change the way she cares for him. that’s why i’m here, i plan to send her a info thing from this vid so she uses it. i WOULD prefer if she let me take the dragon (i have two healthy leopard geckos). any advice?
I have had my baby bearded dragon for five days now and he won’t eat anything I try and give him.. I put crickets and worms fruits and veggies in his habitat everyday twice daily and he never eats it I just throw what he doesn’t eat away .. what can I do .. he is so little and I feel he won’t make it if I can’t get him to eat.
super thorough, concise and informative. I've raised a beardie before, but only one. I want to take much better care of the rescue i got this week and i really appreciate this video. Thank you.
Adults should have more greens instead of giving bugs every day. Not all Adults eat every day some eat every other day switching it up each feeding is a plus
I appreciate someone who actually knows what they're talking about with beardies. I agree with everything you said in this video. Thanks for giving vital information to properly take care of them. One of the biggest mistakes people make with beardies when they're young is not providing proper UVB. So many of them end up with metabolic bone disease, it's really sad.
Oh and do not put a waterfall in there it’s very bad for them bc it puts too much humidity in there look up the guy from Georgia that breeds dragons very very smart man
I am about to get my first one! I can't seem to find a good diet for him I'm getting him as a baby. And don't know how much to feed him or really what to feed as a baby
my dragon's vet told me to dust there food every day. The D3 she told me to stay away from. It seems everything i read on the internet people go both ways. if nothing else my solution is to put a lighter dusting on their food every day. It's easier for me to remember to do it also.
Hi guys! Don't forget to check the description for more information and useful resources.
ALSO, I'm curious. Since beardies can be picky, what are your bearded dragon's favorite foods?
Professor was a big fan of superworms and cantaloupe
That's an awesome name! I've never tried cantaloupe with Zsasz. I'll have to try that next.
Max likes mealworms
My rescue beardie loves strawberries and Dubia roaches, and my bearded dragon I raised HATES roaches even though he was raised on them and will only eat worms. So he gets silk worms since that’s the only worm that won’t make him obese
Peas ... Sweet/ English/ sugar snaps ... The only green been able to get her to eat is napa she likes blackberries and a lil watermelon
Honestly the best guide ive seen . Ive been looking for so long to find a video that gives around how much to feed instead of just saying 20/80.
Thank you so much! I'm glad I could help 😊

my kid wants a bearded Dragon for her birth day this is good for it
this helped so fricking much!
I appreciate someone who actually knows what they're talking about with beardies. I agree with everything you said in this video. Thanks for giving vital information to properly take care of them. One of the biggest mistakes people make with beardies when they're young is not providing proper UVB. So many of them end up with metabolic bone disease, it's really sad.
Just brought my baby homie and was worried why she wasn't eating after being told how big her appetite is but hopefully it's just stress
Wait so don’t feed them Kal or spinach? I heard “avoid”
My cricket bin is taking off which it amazing been cleaning is really really also
Oh and do not put a waterfall in there it’s very bad for them bc it puts too much humidity in there look up the guy from Georgia that breeds dragons very very smart man
Superworms are not a staple food for beardies. They are too high in fat.
I am about to get my first one! I can't seem to find a good diet for him I'm getting him as a baby. And don't know how much to feed him or really what to feed as a baby
My BD refuses anything that doesn't move
Oh my days... 100 crickets a day?? Wow
Kind of hard to value someones opinion on insect feeders when they are being compensated by a producer of said feeders just saying
Thanks for sharing your video Elle your information Was really helpful 👍
You're drop dead gorgeous 😍 and I love the southern accent 😍
uh-
The fact that Dubia dude put a quarter in their for size comparison is good big marketing
Omg how can I afford do buy a large amount of Dubia roaches how much do they cost for 1000 of them
my dragon's vet told me to dust there food every day. The D3 she told me to stay away from. It seems everything i read on the internet people go both ways. if nothing else my solution is to put a lighter dusting on their food every day. It's easier for me to remember to do it also.
I’m watching cause my mom told me I had to clean feed bathe and take care of it but I’m getting it Saturday so I have to learn
My bearded dragon doesn't eat and doesn't let me pick him up
kinda need to know how to store the live insects mostly, need to figure out how i can buy a lot of them and store them..
Damnit I want a beardie but I can’t do the bugs stuff, I’m such a wuss 😩😩
*sigh* here i go again staying up all night just to research about interesting animals in hopes of getting one.....
Any advice on how much to feed them as in like 2 grams of veggies per its weight or something like that
Your voice is oddly easy to listen to.
I can't wait to get my dragon in couple days or week I'm going name him drago on the rocky character Ivan drago
its probably just me but it sounds like you are saying staple instead of stable correct?
Can baby beardies have superworms and if not why
What size dubia roaches would a juvenile eat?
Think Bearded Dragons have an attitude? Try a pet Iguana.
