Blue Bug Plush Bearded Dragon

Product Information

However, bearded dragons are very intelligent creatures, and they will eventually figure out the ruse. Any kind of sudden change to their enclosure can cause a positive or negative reaction from your bearded dragon. If they love the new item, then great! However, if they are unsettled by it, they could hide away in a corner of their enclosure or in one of their hides to get away from it. Simple things, such as changing up the plant life, adding a new branch or two for climbing, or changing to a loose substrate versus tile or carpet, will add small but noticeable differences to your reptile’s habitat. Not only will a bird mistake your beardie for prey, but your pet might be skittish or want to hide if there are a lot of birds around. Then, fill the hole with live insects and watch while your beardie bats the ball around, making the insects fall out.

Avoid music containing any sudden loud noises, as this will cause stress in your beardie rather than relaxation. Stuffed animal Believe it or not, some bearded dragons like their own teddy bears! Stuffed animals can help provide additional warmth and comfort. Not all beardies will appreciate them though so introduce them on a trial basis. Decide whether you want the new name to be male, female, or unisex. If you aren’t sure of the sex of your beardie, it might be helpful to bring your bearded dragon in for a visit your local reptile store or reptile vet. They have lots of experience with this (it can be tough for first-time owners to figure it out on their own). Your bearded dragon should have a 12-hour light and 12-hour dark photocycle. During the light portion of their photocycle, they should have access to either natural sunlight or light from a UV bulb to ensure they can process the vitamin D in their diets.You only have to fill the tub or pool with 2-3″ inches of water at most, just enough for your beardie to move around and have its body underwater. Watch your bearded dragon carefully for any kind of change in their behavior, whether they continue to hide or they stop and carry on as they normally would. Then, you will be able to tell whether the change to their enclosure decor was what caused the hiding behavior. They have plenty of dietary fiber in their diet, such as arugula and collard greens, to help clear out all the food in their intestines.

The idea was conceived in November 2006 when Imran was challenged by younger brother Zubair to invent a better gift than his in time for their niece's first birthday. The Lizard Dragons began to expand the territory of the Lizard Kingdom by driving out all dragons and monsters in the area. They actively adapted to ecological changes, clearing unnecessary weeds and stones, leaving only insects and plants that can serve as their meal. When your bearded dragon is starting to shed, its skin will look very dull, and its eyes will look cloudy. Then its skin will start to peel off in random patches.Reducing stress is key to keeping your bearded dragon healthy and, of course, stopping them from hiding away. Allowing your beardie to hunt whenever possible keeps it active and enriches its life greatly since it gets to follow its natural instincts. #14 Give Your Beardie A Soft Teddy Bear We have a post on bearded dragon accessories if you’re looking for options. #12 Place A Mirror Outside Of The Enclosure
