So if you read my last thread, "After all that hype..."

You already know what I went through at the Reptile show.

But, I did get two gorgeous German Giant Hypo bearded dragons out of it.

After all the heart break of seeing those chameleons/worrying if they would be as nice as Pascal, my boyfriend said "Hey babe check out these dragons" and i walked over there and they were gorgeous! Ages ranged from 4weeks to 14months, and the biggest one was 500 grams! (they let me hold him!!!!) And these two very very nice people, the breeders asked if I was interested in one and i said "yeah, if I don't get this chameleon over there" and they told me that i could handle all the dragons I wanted and ask them anything to help decide. They told me about how huge the dragons would get and how playful they are, and they would give me 2 for 50 instead of 1 for 35. They said they would answer any questions I had even after I left, and gave me a card. I was intrigued, and started playing with this little boy (4weeks old) and he came right up to me and grabbed my finger and was staring at me, and when I went to look at another one, he wouldn't let go, and the lady laughed and said " i guess you found who your going home with" and I laughed and said "yeah I guess so" and made my bf pick out the other one, and of course he goes for the fat lazy one lol. Shes 6 weeks and her name is Bella, and she is funny, but Goliath, he is the crazy one. Only had him two days and hes already gone down my shirt lol.

Will post pics as soon as camera is fixed:)

I don't know very much about bearded dragons, particularly the best heat bulb/ wattage house light to use for heating? can anyone give my like guidelines to follow? I'm doing alright but I wanna do it perfectly.
 
Read you're other thread- shocking! It's probably good you didn't get one of those chams.

Can't wait to see your dragons. They remind me of puppies lol :D

Well, its going to be fairly easy to find beardie husbandry info on line. Check the seller's website if they have one. It will also depend on the temp pattern in your room, size and design of the tank, beardie age, etc. Doesn't the seller/breeder have a caresheet?

Welcome to the world of beardies...little spiny housedogs! I had a rescue German giant years ago who was a hoot. He'd follow me around the house and insist on lying across my lap whenever he could. If I was napping on the couch he liked to open the door to his terrarium (I rigged up a way for him to go in and out on his own), run across the back of the couch and crash down on me for attention. A few heart failures there.

A lot of what I have found is contradictory, like one will say no broccoli and the other will say broccoli, lil stuff like that, and basking temps, anywhere from 102-115, but I'm afraid im gonna cook them! they're itty bitty (2 and 3 inches) and that seems awfully hot.

They didn't give me a caresheet.

Your beardie sounds like fun! Haha belly flop haha, what a way to wake up lol. They're already attached to me lol. I try to put them back in the cage, and they hold on for dear life or climb up my arm lol. Goliath had his little hand on my finger when I tried to let go, and he just dangled there lol.

I'm excited :)
 
At that age basking spot should only be 90-95

I keep and breed bearded dragons also and my babies are all kept at 95-100 F which can be 95-115 as they get older. Good luck they are so much fun. My male is 18 months and 500g he's my baby still and he is my suck. He watches tv with me. Even comes to my corner market all the time. The owners love him:) beardies are great!!!

:D Thanks! They are so much fun! I put them in the bath today, and they both jumped right out back onto my hand (water was lil too warm!:eek:)

And they are starting to give kisses and explore!!:D:D

Haha that's awesome! I can't wait till they're big enough to just let chill. I'm afraid I'll break them!! :rolleyes:

Yeah, the way they grip your hand is just the same as baby Ashleigh, she is slowly getting better at sitting and chilling though she likes to hide up my t-shirt if anything worries her :)
Everything is more fun with the baby ones though, congrats on such cute ones :)
