My Bearded Dragons First Month At Home! | Feeding, Bathing, Pooping And More

As many of you guys know, I recently got a pet bearded dragon! I didn’t introduce her to you guys until the end of February, but I actually got her back in January. While I had her, I recorded some moments from her first month at home for you guys to see. I hope you guys enjoy seeing Lex eating, basking, running, bathing and even pooping 💩.

If ur watching in 2020 it was funny when she said “Keep Them In Quarantine”

[@lauren4477]

[@xavierferragut5729]

Thanx your comment got me in a good mood

[@RattacusTravels]

wow amazing

[@eunicelonganecker8677]

Lol yes

[@c3t0p08]

uhm yes

[@ellesreptiles]

Your beardie is so cute 😍. Even as a full grown adult, mine is too lazy to walk over to her bowl. Haha. Also, mine wasn't interested in hornworms for a while, but once she finally tried one (well into adulthood), they were/still are her favorite (those and waxworms)

[@EmmaLynneSampson]

Thank you!! maybe she'll learn to like them as she gets older then!!

[@mr_worldwide741]

[@welovescats9764]

Emma Lynne Sampson OMG love ur vids

[@dryzl3910]

I was told don’t use wax worms cause they coat their stomach and stuff. True?

[@grimdesire]

bearded dragons do not shed everything at once so something being left on her head is not something you need to remove, it WILL come off on its own eventually! if you take it off it can damage her skin, just as a general thing to keep in mind!

[@LifeWithLou]

I forgot how adorable baby beardies are 😭 I miss when Puff was this size

[@alexamae1711]

louslittlezoo exactly omg they are so cute

[@adelagomez9333]

Also have you tried tong feeding the hornworms to her ? I noticed my beardies are more interested when i do cus the hornworms move so slow on their own 😄

[@EmmaLynneSampson]

yeah she doesn't seem to like tongs or hand feeding at all!! she just runs away 😂

[@alexandracorbett5681]

I know this video is older but if you don't know by now, greens should be offered daily no matter the age! She's beautiful and bearded dragons are really a joy to own.

[@kinseyvidal3430]

BTW just so you know how she was going back and forth when you were about to feed her the first time that is glass surfing they do that when they are stressed but that is completely normal for the first week because they are in a new home. Hope I helped 🥰🥰

[@brittanywesley9582]

Lol, the bearded dragon saw the worms through the glass and got excited… happens for most beardies. They are very smart and see everything thats happening outside their enclosure. Glass surfing isn’t always a sign of stress, a bored beardie will glass surf.

[@Kashmelano]

My beardie lives on my shoulder 😂😂 very beautiful morph you have

[@user-pb4yv1eh2e]

1 minute and 9 seconds in, I noticed the Ikea dresser. 😂good buy! I bought the same one Positive view so far for Dragon Care!

I used to have 50 animals, 20 of them were snakes, and let me tell you about how my utilities bill legit tripled lmao

[@LILBOOGsBUGCORNER]

Nice video…. Your BD is Beautiful. Were doing the same thing as far as feeding, just be careful when you use the solider flies, they dont need dusted at all, they have a very high calcium ratio. Keep the updates coming!

[@Dior.orlando]

3:32 this is what my leopard gecko does every time I’m going to feed her

[@RachelJuneFilms]

Omg she's the Cutest!! You should try putting tiles in the enclosure, it's so easy to clean the poop!!

where did you get the salad bowl? im looking to get a beardy and i cannot find a good salad bowl..

I might get a bearded dragon so thanks for the food tips. She is a cutie

[@alliminoobersvods9660]

this got recommended to me and I'm just so happy to see so many similarites between your beardie and mine. My beardie is currently 8 months old and have had her for 4, she loves cockroaches and gets so excited bout it. Though, I kinda wanna try hornworms but I think they might not be allowed in sweden sadly. :C But beardies are always so adorable!!!

[@EmmaSmith-vd9sb]

great video, you should consider joinging the group on facebook called lizard enthusiasts, its a great group and it may make you have a different view on lots of common practices with beardies! ❤️

[@lynseydrake4301]

my husband and I are thinking of getting a bearded dragon 😍 i want to do a ton of research before we do because i’ve never owned a reptile before! do you have any recommendations for youtube videos to watch/website to do research that i can watch to get educated? 🤓💞

[@thiccbrowsiman]

Lynsey Drake I recommend watching LizardGuru, LORD ELION, Taylor Crane and Pansy Pan on KZbin , they helped me with caring for my bearded dragon 😊

[@chappeden]

Nice one. Mine is almost the exact same colors. Working on building a new house for my little girl :)

[@karma031_]

Hi I don’t know if you can get back to me but I’ll try I have a few questions where can you buy bearded dragons online? And what do you have to put on their food? How do you put the crickets in without dumping the whole container out and what’s best for them when their babies

[@kate-oe3yx]

hi ill try to answer :). i bought my dragon at a pet store that i trusted, but there are many great online stores for getting dragons too; like Atomic Lizard Ranch, Reptile City, etc. some may be out of stock though. the powder she uses to dust the beardie’s food with is calcium supplement, which is necessary to help with beardie bone growth. along with the calcium powder almost daily you should around 3 times a week dust food with a vitamin supplement. to put crickets in the cage, you could either hand feed (which may take a while because baby beardies can eat over 50 crickets) or get a separate container, put the crickets in that along with calcium powder, and then put the beardie in the separate container and let it eat for around 10-15 minutes. do this around 2 or 3 times a day with as many crickets as you feel you should, but only do this process when the beardie is young though, because when its older its diet will be mainly veggies. and as a baby also give it small amounts of beardie approved veggies (there are many lists online of safe veggies) daily along with any bugs you feed it even if they arent interested at first. also when theyre babies its recommended to have a diet of 75% protein (bugs) and 25% veggies, which isnt easy to pull off considering how picky babies are, but is possible. hope this helps!! reply if you have any more questions

[@kyliecharek9328]

Omg thanks for Liking my comment!I Just got a beardie and I’m having trouble with keeping her warm because her heat lamp isn’t working. Whims I would get a new one but I need to wait for more money. So can you make a video on ways to keep them warm.

[@jeanedouard8443]

Very nice

[@kprintsss]

How often do you put calcium powder in her food ?

[@eunicelonganecker8677]

Put calcium powder on you beardies food every other time you feed them!

[@AnglBunny]

Your beardie is soooo cute!!!

[@Swish_Clip]

How big is that terrarium?

What is the best substrate for a beardie

[@naomisukilim_1150]

what does the white powder you put in her food for?

[@bellahmcbryde5040]

You probably won’t see this but where did you get the grape wood branch? Amazon if so what is the name of it

[@lindsayvlogs4374]

O my so much bigger than mine I got mine as a hatchling and they seem alot more easier the bigger they get mine is so scared she will eat like every 3 days it's crazy but I offer her like every hour no matter what I honestly think she is scared of crickets she freaks out when I try she is very cute tho and I'm just being patient I only had her 12 days now

[@arianabenson7513]

Where did you get her log, it’s seems like I can never find a large stable log for my beardie

[@ThatTattooGuyOfficial]

This may be a stupid question but I’m new at this lol When cleaning the cage, do you spray the wood or little decor they have down with anything so it doesn’t smell from poop or grow any type of bacteria’s ?

[@justmejo9008]

Omg.. So small and adorable

[@ILoveMyPlants]

I’m getting one a month from today! I’m naming him fluffy and I’m trying to prep. Probably not going to get a baby, maybe 1-5 years? Anyone in the comments have any tips for new already a couple year old dragon?

Just informing you most get embarrassed being watched while eating because your watching them so it is/was normal for her to run away when you watch her!

Hey there.. I’ve just got a beardy, he’s about 5-6 weeks old and he’s not really eating. It’s day 3 with him and I’ve tried everything.. any advice??

love them hope you are well

[@charlotteyoung4014]

Love watching them eat

[@ralphsshades]

I have a question. can african fat tailed geckos eat all the same insects leopard geckos can and can they eat black soldier fly larvae?

[@EmmaLynneSampson]

yep! african fat tails can eat insects like dubia roaches, crickets, superworms, waxworms, BSFL etc. AFTs tend to be picky eaters though, so they may not accept all of them!

[@thirdeyereptiles1772]

super worms I def wouldn't recommend ! too may or ones that have a hard eco skeleton can cause impaction or cause them to throw up. Dubai roaches and crickets are better as an everyday feeder. she is so cute!

[@EmmaLynneSampson]

Dubia are illegal in Canada unfortunately. I keep an eye on her stool when she eats super worms and she’s never once had an issue digesting them but I appreciate the top!

[@thirdeyereptiles1772]

Really !? Wow that is so crazy how do you deal with crickets 24/7 😩😂 I give you props!

[@missdogfish]

She reminds me so much of my beardie was! Such an amazing reptile :)

[@Beachgoer21]

Meal worms aren’t necessary or good for dragons. Their thick exo skeletons can become impacted. It’s safest to avoid feeding them. Regardless, cute dragon!!

[@EmmaLynneSampson]

lindsey Smith she was never fed mealworms. Only super worms. Super worms and meal worms are different species and supers don’t have the same hard exo skeleton that meal worms do.

[@Beachgoer21]

Emma Lynne Sampson yes I know! My bad, they looked a lot like meal worms to me

Can you make a video about quarantine?

I hope you go to petsmart in Hawaii someday. I’m always wondering what they will sell especially reptiles. Since many things petsmart sells are illegal in Hawaii, like hamsters, snakes, geckosand bearded dragons

[@dixiewhite2698]

Hamsters are illegal in Hawaii?

[@xxbabymegalodonxx2474]

Yep, the government is concerned that the climate is too good for hamsters and that the environment is very fragile. So if a few hamsters escape or get released, the ecosystem will be destroyed. So the government decided to take a ban in the hamster

[@xxbabymegalodonxx2474]

Dixie White Hawaii bans many pets I’m sure more than any other state. Because the ecosystem is fragile, their are only a few native birds, and some small mammals. So if any non native in introduced, the ecosystem has a really high chance of being completely destroyed. If snake aare introduced, they would wipe out all the birds and mammals. Its actually happening right now, Brown snakes are already introduced to Hawaii and they are wiping off the birds. The government is trying to cull all of them but idk how it’s going
