I love how when he fed the first 2 babies the 1st one picked the lettuce up and moved a bit to the 2nd one and it looked like he was offering the lettuce & the 2nd baby took it haha. Sharing is caring ! :)
Thank you, this was very helpful! As a new bearded dragon owner I found out I was feeding my baby bearded dragon to much, and now it is much happier, healthy, and playful.
@@SabrinaSchoor Well, I dont know a lot, but I was feeding my 4/5 month old bearded dragon about two times a day, which I learned is to much and over feeding can be harmful, so I switched to doing it every day or every other day. I would think a 3 month old beardie would probably eat about a cup/a half cup of greens and veggies every other day, maybe less, with some crickets and mealworms probably every day. Again I dont know much and could always be wrong, but I hope this helped 😊
@J J um I'm not an expert but I've done lots of research and asked my vet what the proper care was for a beardie, it's really not good to feed your dragon that much when they're so young, it can make them sick and cause problems later in their life. Your supposed to feed them veggies and proteins frequently, but that mean like one or at the most twice a day, depending on your beardie and their age.
put some dried fruit.. like apples or cranberries in the salad to get your son to eat it and .. honey a little oil.. with vinger. just keep up with that until you find a combo of stuff he likes.. as for your dragon.. lol good luck with that
I don't wanna sound like a smart ass or anything and you're obviously good with beardies but you shouldn't feed them lettuce because it is quite bad for them and provides next to no nutrition, but it's you're choice, still your info and tips are really helpful
***** yeah so i dont wanna fuck myself and the implication here is that your beardie is in bad hands. if you dont have anything helpful to say then keep it shut in your tiny cranium
My first beardy Sandman that I had for 8 years didn't like greens much. But my current beardy Einstein is 9 and he loves Spring Mix I only give him organic though because I worry about pesticides. 2 things I always make sure he has is RepCal Bearded Dragon food because it is a balanced diet with D3 and Calcium and fresh filtered water. I give him crickets once in a while but I always have 25 to 50 Super Worms on hand because I love to hand feed them to him. I don't recommend Super Worms for juveniles though. Just thought I would share my experience since both my beardies lived past their 8 year life expectancy. I also provide a gradient temperature of 90-95 on the heat rock, Hammock end of his 75 gallon with a ZooMed 75 Watt Spot and a ZooMed 10.0 UVB on the water end. He also has a tree and tunnel in the middle so he can adjust to any temperature and light he wants. I have the lights on a timer so they come on about 12pm and go out at 9pm and I leave his heat rock plugged in which automatically goes off and comes on to stay at 90°. The Spot dome is coated on the inside with glow in the dark stuff and simulates the moon. I think it's made by ExoTerra.
I have about a 3 month old and after trying a few different combos, I found that he likes the combo of collards, carrots and zucchini. To get him to eat it I established a routine where when I turn his light on to wake him up, I also put the salad in and that's the only thing that goes in there for about an hour. At first he didn't touch it but after a few days and the fact that he's hungry when he wakes up and there's nothing else to eat, he goes right for it.
honestly I would go with any lizard, as long as it's alive and well fed. I'd go with one with no tale, it not about what's on the outside. when you look at only the outside they are an object, if you look at them as a living creature, they are all created equal.
Derpy Purr My oldest female I got her with only 1 eye that works since the petstore had gotten her from a bad breeder that had assisted her in her hatching and ended up breaking the bone that supports her eye and he never got it fixed. The petstore was going to kill her. She has lived for 4 years now and receives eye drops everyday. The vet told me she has no pain at all
Derpy Purr Also my youngest male I had gotten from that same petstore and nearly a year after I got him he started having seizures. Took him to a vet and they said it was bad genetics. He is partially paralyzed in his lower back. Since he hasn't moved in a while his muscles have kinda disappeared. Moving doesn't cause any pain to him its just hard for him to get around. The vet has recommended for me to give him baths to strengthen him and to get him to chase his food. He has slowly been getting better!
You should really publish some downloadable 'go to' manuals for people raising beardies. I'd be willing to pay via Paypal. Your videos are really informative, literally the best guides on youtube. Great work mate :)
I suppose it depends on the beardie but, I have noticed over the years of having a beardie for a companion; they will not eat the fruits and veggies while I stood and watched. As soon as I gave them privacy they chowed down. Of course it is a whole different scenario when live bait was offered. Chaos and a fury of a feeding frenzy took place. I admit, I enjoy watching them hunt their prey. Thanks for posting video.
Thats an awesome rack set up man, just found your channel and looks like some great content. did u purchase the rack set up? or did you build it? and what materials did you use? also what size are they? 3 foot long?
i just bought my baby bearded dragon and i love him to death. as mutch research as i do as much as i call the pet shop where i hot him ...i still have questions so many questions. i want the best for my baby! i wish there was a bearded dragon hotline or somthing...
he is a breeder. he sells them. but by showing his bearded dragons a lot of people want to buy his beardies because he is showing how well taken care of they are. and healthy
yeckomg my beardie wouldn't eat veggies for ages but then I a day he just started to eat them. my advice would be to just keep offering it. maybe have one day per week without love food, if he/she is hungry then they will eat the veg.
I've had my baby beardie two days and given fresh salad each day, he's eaten one bit of red pepper and I was over the moon when he had carrot out of my hand this morning😂 moving the salad doesn't work but if I hand feed it first thing before he has his insects he'll be more interested then after his live food😅 I've put mealworms on carrots too and he manages to just take the mealworm🤦🏽♀️😂
Very helpful. I got one baby beardie. Its not eating the veggies, I didn't know why until I saw it takes more then one to get them to start eating. I do hold the mealworms in my fingers to offer them to her, and sometimes I can pass the veggies as mealworms and she'll eat them, but helpful. My sister has the geckos, that used to be mine, in her room, and she was trying to clean the cage, and put the baby gecko in the beardies cage. Bad idea. The minute I came in, she was hysterically screaming and crying. Apparently, she had put the gecko in, and before it could do anything, the beardie attacked it and as the gecko dropped its tail, the bearded dragon ate the tail!!! I came in to the sight of the dragon sitting on her rock, with the smallest little tip of the tail sticking out of her mouth, flicking wildly. And in the corner, the gecko, now without a tail, was hiding in the corner looking at the dragon, named Maxine. And to think, this all happened on MLK Day!
I would STRONGLY recommend you to stop feeding your dragons lettuce, since it has very little nutritional value. Instead, you should feed them kale, collard greens, mustard greens, and broccoli. Also, you should mix up everything in the salad plate instead of having each vegetable grouped up. That way the dragons won't be eating just one - their favorite lol. You want them to eat a large variety of veggies. But other then that, I really like how your caring for your pets. I especially like the fact that you feed them cockroaches instead of crickets. To anyone who doesn't feed roaches to their reptiles-please start. Crickets are not healthy for reptiles... maybe once in a while it is okay to feed them crickets, but it should not be their main source of protein. That's about it. ;)
Animals! could you explain why kale is bad for bearded dragons? I am only asking because I own one and feed him kale every once in a while. My only assumptions beforehand were that kale is probably a very potent in terms of nutrients for most living animals and that the dark green hints that it is possibly harder to break down in the stomach, so I have been giving it to him in light servings and when there's nothing else in his stomach (i.e to start the day). Are there any other reasons not to feed bearded dragons kale
swagg onfleek I can't get my baby to eat the kale I tried making it seem like it is moving he just stood there...lol he apparently is smarter than me jk!!! 😂
You always provide great advice based on instinct. Great for beginners and people dealing with reptiles having the odd 'funky' hibernation. Keep up the awesome videos!!!
Kia Nyrhinen no they can have collared greens, mustard greens and dandelion greens and some others and kale is like a every once in awhile thing mine he eats collared greens
If this don’t work get baby food if you are in uk the best is Ella’s kitchen mango flavour or apple it doesn’t really matter I’m not sure if it’s world wide though. Then dip a worm say like a wax worm dip it into the sauce and feed it, then your baby bearded dragon will get used to the flavour. Hope this helped you.
Combined with the other vegetables the lettuce is very good for them. It provides a huge source of water. They all appear to be in good health and weight. Having a variety of vegetables (including lettuce). Is never a bad thing. Vegetable matter takes up the smallest portion of their diet anyway.
Austin Wood It's still a gaping hole in the food source. Darker greens would be far better for the beardies. So long as the water source is kept clean and in motion, the thirst drive of the bearded dragons will take care of the rest without having to feed them that garbage.
You're making it sound as if lettuce is some type of poison, which is awfully dramatic XD. There is nothing in the lettuce that is harmful to them. Lettuce has little but water yes, we can agree on this. BUT, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, if it's used in tandem with other vegetables that already give the beardy it's essential nutrients. I've been giving mine lettuce mixed with collard greens, carrots, and various fruits for years now. There is no gaping hole, when it's already been filled and then some.
You know that young beardys need to eat at least 3 times a day EACH, and 75 - 80% will be live insects. And the adults are 2-3 times a day with 20-30% being live insects. and you should NOT be keeping g them together unless breeding! I'm not trying to sound rude, sorry if you take it that way, but you should do alot more research on them before keeping as pets, as they do need specific requirements. ( And lettuce give no nutrition, u r killing them while they think they are eating.)
You can keep youngsters together they wont hurt each other, when they get at a certain age they can't be together anymore, As you can see they aren't hurting each other.
Feeding them that much and seriously hurt them unless you feed them a fourth amount of there food at once but if you are feeding them a full meal each time they could die and when you feed them insects they don’t know when to stop eating they only know when to stop eating vegetables but as baby’s they don’t know when to stop for anything
Starving your beardies for 2 days and then taking the plate of food away from them a minute after they start chowing is cruelty, even if it was just for the video. And that is far too little greens for every single dragon to get enough to eat. You are cruel. For shame.
Tiffany Ann Greco you are right on what you said and That's not the right food for them and they need more food and cut smaller he's lost on what he's doing
Hey,what do you usually feed them?I have a 7inch bearded female dragon named Daisy.She eats salad and crickets mealworms and also grapes and carrots what else can I feed her?
Everyone has an opinion. Actually, my bearded dragon is 9 years old and she eats salad with lettuce. Be careful not to use iceberg lettuce; however, the green leaf is good for them. Watch out for spinach because it is high in iron. Also, I stay away from nightshades such as tomatoes. My beardie loves strawberries which is a good source of Vitamin C. I'm not going to tell you what your dragon can have or not have because there are many myths out there regarding dragon health.
Nice! I didn't use this method, but this morning, I was going to put some lettuce in my beardies cage, and before I even put it reached the bowl, one of them yanked it out if my hand and "hugged" it!
I used to give my bearded dragon lettuce, not allot, but I stopped because it was giving him diarrhea. Bok Choy I found to be allot better. The salads I give him consist of several things, with the main ingredient being the bok choy because he likes the leaf, followed by peas, broccoli, squash, kale, carrots, red/ white cabbage, sprayed with a calcium enriched water spray, and a light multi vitamin dust. That's just me.
I agree with the other readers. I have read many times that lettuce is not a good food to feed your dragon because it has no nutritional value. and also their food shouldn't be any wider than the width between the dragon's eyes.
7:07 - is the facial expressions of " Ohhh, I'm basic - that's funny coming from guy that wears Crocs for fashion and not comfort along with cargo pants that can be unzipped into shorts .... don't get us started on your soft, pale, and armorless skin." Oooor possibily - " Really Mate, basic! This food is basic, my food eats this food."
So just got my beardie. Kratos. From PetSmart. He's really active. When we bought him. Now he's just chilling in the basking spot. Won't even look at his vegies I've prepared for the last 3 days. First day he ate about 8 crickets. Second day about 7. And then now today only 5. ...
You shouldn’t always give bearded dragons lettuce because lettuce has a lack of calcium which is something a bearded dragon needs to keep its bone stricter stabilized and not collapse. If you proceed feeding mostly lettuce they will die.
Thanks for your post, I am madly googling so I have learned from you. Your cages look great and you have happy beardies!! I rescued 2 tiny little guys from drowning in the pool and when they are OK will release them back to the bush, not sure I can catch that any insects to keep them as pets lol!!!
thanks for the tips i couldn't get my 16 bearded dragons to eat the salad thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Basically what i did, btw disclaimer i am 14 and this is my first bearded dragon, was just put it in there and have nothing else. I had crickets on standby, but he ate the salad so i just gave him the crickets as a reward.
Cody Herio this guy don't do the right stuff not even feeding them right don't listen to this dude I could show you and tell you most everything cuz he don't do everything like he should

i heard when they get bigger they will start eating it.
Destro Mixer sometimes but it's best to start with the veggies as soon as you can. even have them help make dinner. it's less drama filled.
try to give hem crickets then xD

Aren't you worried about passing any diseases or colds by sharing the food plate?
Bill Baran You have more chance catching "diseases/colds" (salmonella) by touching eggs in the supermarket.
Ok. I ran a ferret shelter and we tried to watch out for cross contamination.
Bill Baran I mean your right I wouldn't share plates with my beardies but maybe it's a plate just for them.

If this don’t work get baby food if you are in uk the best is Ella’s kitchen mango flavour or apple it doesn’t really matter I’m not sure if it’s world wide though. Then dip a worm say like a wax worm dip it into the sauce and feed it, then your baby bearded dragon will get used to the flavour. Hope this helped you.
Honestly they're all cute they all deserve loving homes regardless of their defects.🤷🏼♀️
... Why are you feeding them lettuce? That's like feeding them water.
Combined with the other vegetables the lettuce is very good for them. It provides a huge source of water. They all appear to be in good health and weight. Having a variety of vegetables (including lettuce). Is never a bad thing. Vegetable matter takes up the smallest portion of their diet anyway.
Austin Wood It's still a gaping hole in the food source. Darker greens would be far better for the beardies. So long as the water source is kept clean and in motion, the thirst drive of the bearded dragons will take care of the rest without having to feed them that garbage.
If they don't eat it can make them sick they can't just eat bugs
Donna Bates I never said feeding them vegetables was bad, It's just that light lettuce is completely devoid of nutrients.
You're making it sound as if lettuce is some type of poison, which is awfully dramatic XD. There is nothing in the lettuce that is harmful to them.
Lettuce has little but water yes, we can agree on this. BUT, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, if it's used in tandem with other vegetables that already give the beardy it's essential nutrients.
I've been giving mine lettuce mixed with collard greens, carrots, and various fruits for years now. There is no gaping hole, when it's already been filled and then some.
You know that young beardys need to eat at least 3 times a day EACH, and 75 - 80% will be live insects. And the adults are 2-3 times a day with 20-30% being live insects. and you should NOT be keeping g them together unless breeding! I'm not trying to sound rude, sorry if you take it that way, but you should do alot more research on them before keeping as pets, as they do need specific requirements. ( And lettuce give no nutrition, u r killing them while they think they are eating.)
Katelyn M amen...
You can keep youngsters together they wont hurt each other, when they get at a certain age they can't be together anymore, As you can see they aren't hurting each other.
Feeding them that much and seriously hurt them unless you feed them a fourth amount of there food at once but if you are feeding them a full meal each time they could die and when you feed them insects they don’t know when to stop eating they only know when to stop eating vegetables but as baby’s they don’t know when to stop for anything
I'm pretty sure he knows what he's doing he has 4 huge tanks with babies and like 2 adult bearded dragons
And his set up looks well invested aswell i am 100% sure he knows exactly what he's doing
So cute Bearded Dragons
When he opened the door with his foot.😂
lol
Oi! YOU SHOULDNT FEED BEARDIES LETTUCE!!!!
Starving your beardies for 2 days and then taking the plate of food away from them a minute after they start chowing is cruelty, even if it was just for the video. And that is far too little greens for every single dragon to get enough to eat. You are cruel. For shame.
Tiffany Ann Greco no no these beardies are so healthy and yet spoiled.
Tiffany Ann Greco yea they are really healthy they are wild animals
Tiffany Ann Greco there's cared for perfectly
Tiffany Ann Greco you are right on what you said and That's not the right food for them and they need more food and cut smaller he's lost on what he's doing
wolf hearted nah there perfectly fine
the baby dragons are so cute
That outdoor inclosure is dank great job
I've been wondering how to get my dragons to eat veggies. I'll have to try that!
Hey,what do you usually feed them?I have a 7inch bearded female dragon named Daisy.She eats salad and crickets mealworms and also grapes and carrots what else can I feed her?
Everyone has an opinion. Actually, my bearded dragon is 9 years old and she eats salad with lettuce. Be careful not to use iceberg lettuce; however, the green leaf is good for them. Watch out for spinach because it is high in iron. Also, I stay away from nightshades such as tomatoes. My beardie loves strawberries which is a good source of Vitamin C. I'm not going to tell you what your dragon can have or not have because there are many myths out there regarding dragon health.
My baby would rather DIE than eat his salad and if goes like a week without eating I try to force feed him but it still doesn't work
Nice! I didn't use this method, but this morning, I was going to put some lettuce in my beardies cage, and before I even put it reached the bowl, one of them yanked it out if my hand and "hugged" it!
I use the "give while they are chewing" method
2:01 the one on the right be like: *Boi did ya just turn ma salad away?!*
I love your bearded dragon videos in a few months I will be getting one.
respect for that toe opening
They are ssooo!!!! Ccuuutttteeeee!!!!!! You dive really really good info
hes holding onto it like no plz dont this salad is life :(
Wen he took the plate out for the lizards they were like bitch were u going
Omgosh they’re so cute. I love baby bearded dragons ❤️
I used to give my bearded dragon lettuce, not allot, but I stopped because it was giving him diarrhea. Bok Choy I found to be allot better.
The salads I give him consist of several things, with the main ingredient being the bok choy because he likes the leaf, followed by peas, broccoli, squash, kale, carrots, red/ white cabbage, sprayed with a calcium enriched water spray, and a light multi vitamin dust.
That's just me.
They are so adorable
2:29 Excuse me, Mr. Dragon. XD
Our Dragon loves its Salad. He is two years old and almost completely off the protein diet. Seems like all Beardies become vegetarians.
They are so cute.
I agree with the other readers. I have read many times that lettuce is not a good food to feed your dragon because it has no nutritional value. and also their food shouldn't be any wider than the width between the dragon's eyes.
good to know that there are still good breeders of bearded dragons who care about the diet and the welfare of these . :)
I usually put a slice of cucumber that is chopped in my bearded dragons tank 1c a week to help hydration
ella hyena315 That is good for them as long as you peel the cucumber
Thats an amazing setup! Seems like my the company i work for would be able to make something like that
Aw cute !!!
You are very good passion for Bearded Dragons.
1;53 he shares with his brother aww
7:07 - is the facial expressions of " Ohhh, I'm basic - that's funny coming from guy that wears Crocs for fashion and not comfort along with cargo pants that can be unzipped into shorts .... don't get us started on your soft, pale, and armorless skin."
Oooor possibily - " Really Mate, basic! This food is basic, my food eats this food."
i love beardies that have problems like missing a arm or a eye those are the type i love
That is concerning 😂
So just got my beardie. Kratos. From PetSmart. He's really active. When we bought him. Now he's just chilling in the basking spot. Won't even look at his vegies I've prepared for the last 3 days. First day he ate about 8 crickets. Second day about 7. And then now today only 5. ...
Idk what to do. He's still a juvenile. He should be eating more. My temps and humidity is spot on from what the thermometer tells me..
I might be getting a bearded for my birthday I'm looking to that
Your lizards are so cool
Your well, mannered for saying he is when he is
You shouldn’t always give bearded dragons lettuce because lettuce has a lack of calcium which is something a bearded dragon needs to keep its bone stricter stabilized and not collapse. If you proceed feeding mostly lettuce they will die.
you've got a really nice set up
Your bearded dragons are cool I have a baby one at 6 weeks old not sure if he is his boy or girl yet hopefully his boy your video helped thanks
wow man you have a really nice set up!
10:36 - the best part of this video xD
Thanks for your post, I am madly googling so I have learned from you. Your cages look great and you have happy beardies!! I rescued 2 tiny little guys from drowning in the pool and when they are OK will release them back to the bush, not sure I can catch that any insects to keep them as pets lol!!!
thanks for the tips i couldn't get my 16 bearded dragons to eat the salad thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your voice is so soothing I love iy

Top 10 cutest things that exist
Where did you get this tank set up, with sliding glass door, what's the measurements of this set up?
they are so cool I have one too.
my dragon is so picky! he litterally moves all of his collards and starts eating the carrots
I'm just gonna put spinach and crickets in there with a few good vegetables:D
Basically what i did, btw disclaimer i am 14 and this is my first bearded dragon, was just put it in there and have nothing else. I had crickets on standby, but he ate the salad so i just gave him the crickets as a reward.
Cody Herio this guy don't do the right stuff not even feeding them right don't listen to this dude I could show you and tell you most everything cuz he don't do everything like he should
