New tank set up

This is Alex's new tank set up. It's a much bigger tank and instead of sand I now use cypress wood chips. He was getting to small for his old one. The top of the tank is screen. It's a lot easier to clean. It's around 40 gallons. His favorite foods right now is raspberry and dandy lion leaves.  I wash them before giving them to him. I've had him for around two years now.

Alex the bearded dragon's week

   My bearded Dragon has gotten a bit bigger. He now really enjoys rasberries too. I take him out of his cage around every two days and play with him. He is so much more used to people now, when before he would hide.  He is typically active around nine am to four in the afternoon, sometimes longer. Towards the end of the day he suns himself. I gave him meal worms a few days ago, and he ate around twenty of them. He really liked to eat them. I also gave him a bath yesterday. He really enjoyed that to.

Here is Alex eating crickets. He loves to eat them.

Harold's new home!  It grew about 50 percent.  I added a large branch and deeper water dish.  His food repertoire has expanded: meal-worms, wax worms, crickets, spinach, cilantro, kale and dandelion leaves!!  You can see my meal worm container in the background.  I have new babies!!! Harold says, "Yum!"

   This is a video on how to give your bearded dragon a bath (Make sure the tap water has no chlorine). Enjoy!
 Keep him/her in the bath for 10-20 min. When you take your bearded dragon out, hold him/her in a clean towel until you think he/she is dry.

Alex (my bearded dragon) loves apples!

     I don't feed Alex apples a lot but today I sliced a piece of apple and chopped it into four pieces and put a piece next to where he was in the morning and the rest in his food bowl. I just moved his cage so he was not eating a lot so I thought he would not eat anything. I came back about 7 hours later and he had eaten all of them. I am going to feed him apples more. Alex loves apples, so maybe your bearded dragon does too.
