Temperature, humidity, substrate, lighting, feeding and supplements all play a major role answering the question, just how long does a bearded dragon live?

BEARDED DRAGON COLOR MORPHS – HABITAT

While a hatchling bearded dragon for sale could live in a 20-gallon aquarium for a short time, it will quickly need a larger bearded dragon habitat. A 75-gallon aquarium / fish tank or equal-sized enclosure will work for up to two adult  bearded dragons for sale. Screening the top of your habitat will help with ventilation.  This should be done whether as a top on an aquarium enclosure or any other type of habitat used so air flow is acheived.  We use custom enclosures here at CB for all of our bearded dragon breeders.

During warm weather, both baby and adult bearded dragons can be kept in outdoor cages. Be sure the outdoor enclosure provides both sunny basking areas and shady areas to hide in.  Also provide some type of shelter from the rain and elements.

Provide access to the sun or alternative UVB bearded dragon lights

Having access to the sun outdoors provides healthy UVA and UVB to your beardie. Remember, normally bearded dragons like to climb, so some sturdy branches make an important part of establishing normal activity within the bearded dragon enclosures.  If you are not using outdoors for subnlight be sure you are providing ample amounts of UVB thru UVB lighitng.  We prefer and recommend using t5 high output UVB lamps as we use here at CB Reptile.

Here at CB Reptile, we spend quite a bit of time handling all of our baby reptiles for sale.  Want to learn how to hold a bearded dragon, or how to pick up a bearded dragon? Handling your bearded dragon is easy if you do it correctly!

Once used to human contact, bearded dragons are generally quite docile and will tolerate handling better than almost any other lizard species. This is especially true of adults have been handled since hatching and have spent their entire lives in captivity (of course, there may be exceptions). From day one, handling your beardie is key to raising happy and well socialized pet bearded dragon.

Baby Bearded Dragon for sale – Lighting  & Temperature

Bearded dragons like it pretty darn hot. A basking spot of about 95-100 degrees works well for both baby and adult bearded dragons. The basking site can be provided by a spotlight (such as a mercury vapor bulb also known as MVB) or a ceramic heating element.  Take care to be sure your heat lamp or element is positioned at one end of the enclosure so you are creating a hot and cold zone. Keeping the spotlight at one end of the cage will allow your dragon to thermoregulate as it should.  Themoregulation is when your dragon will move between a cooler end of the enclosure and the basking zone in order to regulate its’ body temperature. The cooler end of the enclosure should be always around 78-80 degrees.

UVB LIGHTING FOR YOUR BABY BEARDED DRAGONS

In addition to the basking spotlight, provide full-spectrum UVB (ultraviolet-B spectrum of light) lighting over the rest of the enclosure. Because lighting is critically important for dragons that are kept indoors, as it assists them in synthesizing vitamin D3, which aids in calcium absorption. also, there are many types of bearded dragon UV lights available.  Be sure to consult with store employees and read the packaging to determine the best for your setup.  Also, spend some time reviewing our free bearded dragon care sheet.

Heat can also be provided using reptile heat tape controlled by a reptile thermostat.  Also, you may use ceramic heat emitters and other devices available here at CB reptile. Keep a thermometer in the enclosure to track the cage temperature. At night, temperatures may go as low as 65 degrees.

BEARDED DRAGON MORPHS – FOOD & DIET

Bearded dragons are omnivorous, meaning they eat both animal and plant matter. They are not usually picky and eat with gusto. Insects, such as crickets and mealworms, should be dusted with a vitamin/mineral supplement and calcium. Dusting can be achieved by placing the insects in a plastic bag with some of the powder and shaking the bag to lightly coat the insects prior to offering them to your lizards.

Also offer baby bearded dragons finely chopped veggies (such as romaine lettuce, zucchini, carrots, etc.), greens (collard, mustard, dandelion, etc.) and fruit (kiwi, banana, mango, etc.). Use healthy, vitamin-rich items; sprinkle the appropriate amount of powdered supplements on these foods, too. Avoid iceberg lettuce because it is not nutritious.

Bearded dragons will also eat pinky mice, and a wide variety of nutritionally balanced manufactured diets are available at pet stores, too. Again, if you keep your dragons on sand, offer food on a shallow dish rather than placing it directly on the substrate.

WATER FOR YOUR INLAND BABY BEARDED DRAGON

Mist bearded dragons using a water spray bottle; they’ll lick water droplets off cage walls, rocks, etc., as well as themselves. Don’t overdo it; you don’t want their enclosure to get too wet and become humid. Offer water in a dish that is large enough for them to soak. Be sure to keep this dish and the water in it clean.

BEARDED DRAGON SUBSTRATE

Like most species of pet lizards for sale, bearded dragon habitats require proper substrate.  Wondering what is the best substrate for a bearded dragon? There are quite a few options as far as what is the best substrate for a bearded dragon habitat.  Sand is commonly used with bearded dragons, though there is a concern, especially when keeping young lizards, that intestinal impaction could result if they accidentally eat some. It is not recommended that you keep young bearded dragons on reptile sand, or any kind of loose substrate. Newspaper, paper toweling or reptile carpet (though watch for loose threads or areas that can snag dragon toenails) would be better choices.

Adult bearded dragons for sale can be kept on these same substrates. If you must use sand, playground sand (available at hardware and do-it-yourself stores) is a the better option due to the fact that it’s not as dusty as other types of sand.  Alternatives exist however they may not be labeled as “reptile sand”.  You can also purchase digestible “reptile sand” at reptile and pet stores, though opinions on the safety of these are varied. If you try some, be sure to follow manufacturer directions specific to the species of animal you are working with. Only use sand mixed with clean organic soil that has not been treated with any fertilizers, pesticides, etc., can also be used with adult bearded dragons.

If you keep your baby bearded dragons on sand, reduce the risk of impaction by offering food on a shallow dish rather than placing it directly on the substrate.  They could ingest the sand if you do not feed within a food dish, keeping sand away from their food.

ABOUT BEARDED DRAGON MORPHS FOR SALE

Although several other species are becoming available to the pet trade, the most commonly available variety is the central or inland bearded dragon, Pogona vitticeps. This species is native to arid, rocky areas of Australia, and is typically tan/brown in coloration (but several color morphs are also available).

The bearded dragon name is derived from the spines that line their throats. These spines usually lie flat but if the dragon feels threatened, the throat is expanded causing the spines to stand up and making the dragon look like they have a beard and more intimidating (especially combined with their tendency to flatten their bodies to appear wider). However, bearded dragons are generally docile and their aggressive displays are rarely seen in captivity which makes them very popular pet reptiles for sale.
