Unboxing baby bearded dragon!

[@MeetMarmaduke]

To All: Before you consider posting another complaint about the packaging or how slow I took him out... READ THE DESCRIPTION! Thanks ❤🦎❤

[@zetaopress2389]

People are so ignorant and don't know how to read descriptions. But i understand how you felt in the video lol i just bought mines 2 days ago. Also note that it's best to buy the bugs at a pet store. cause if you catch wild ones they might have a disease or parasite and it can travel into the lizard and harm it.

[@sethpierce1477]

He's very beautiful. I'm really jealous. I've gotta ask though. I've heard that your not supposed to handle or pick em up for a week? Is that true? (I have no knowledge on reptile pets)

[@MeetMarmaduke]

@@sethpierce1477 Yes, the standard recommendation is to handle bearded dragons sparingly for the first 1-2 weeks to allow them to adjust to the new environment and shake off their relocation stress. It's best to handle them only as needed for feeding and cleaning, then otherwise leave them be. But it is a good idea to spend time around their tank, just hanging out and doing normal things, so they learn that you're not a threat. After the first few weeks they will become more curious and allow you to handle them without getting stressed out.

You make a bearded dragon feel scared and transported in a small bag that's probably not Evan properly protected because you can't be bothred to pick it up at a pet store

[@MeetMarmaduke]

Cerealsniper39 How do you think the reptiles at a pet store got there? Shipped in a box... And I went to 4 different pet stores in town, including 2 locally owned reptile shops, but no one could tell me anything about the breeders or where the dragons came from. I would much rather support an ethical breeder directly, one who can tell me how the parents and babies were raised, than pay an uninformed pet store for simply being the middle man.

[@dragongamerboi13]

Yeah right? it is a baby after all, better not man-handle it unless you wanna possibly injure it and also get it not to trust you. I loved how gentle she was. it's adorable and so brightly colored.

[@q3uxvy573]

i agree

I cannot fathom the idea of sending out lizards in boxes such as this like some "parcel item". Imagine the stress levels! Respect to the owner for being awesome with it. Such a cute beardie. 😊❤

He’s absolutely adorable, congrats on getting him!! I’m considering asking my parents for one, are they worth it? And what’s the hardest part about owning one? Sorry for the questions, the more feedback, the better. :)

[@MeetMarmaduke]

Totally worth it! Marmaduke is a great pet and I love him to bits. The hardest thing is needing a constant supply of live insects to feed him, but if you start your own colony, you can save a lot of that hassle!

[@maddy7678]

There soooo worthit!! My dad has allergies so reptiles and anphibians are my only choice (besides doggies) and i would consider getting a beardie as ur first reptile just because thier easiest

They are greats pets . Not many cons about owning one at all very hardy animals cheap to keep and don't need walked lol perfect pet for anyone with minimal responsibility in the sense you can be gone all day my baby has own little desert happening in his encloser loves his sand digs all the time branches stones great pets

[@handlemynyutz]

Arcticfloof yes they 100% are.....when you raise one from a baby. The hardest part about owning one is the initial cost. Cages lights and everything else you need are kind of expensive. Also read a whole lot about how to take care of them because it’s absolutely necessary to make it live to its potential. Just a tip: don’t use sand as a base. Try out sandpaper and if it starts to rub it’s head against it then replace it with something else immediately

[@callme_freshhh814]

Was the bin just temporary?

[@pixx13]

You did a great job unboxing him, and these people should not hate on you for working slowly, and making sure that he's okay. When you noticed he raised his tail, it's because he's exploring, getting a feel of the place, he's just alert, and knows you're there. Something that I would recommend doing when handling a dragon for it's first time with you (new dragon) is washing your hands with warm-hot water, and a big thing that I noticed that you didn't do, is petting his chin. When you pet their chin, it gives them a chance to do a mlem (lick) and get a feel for what you are, and for some reason, it makes them feel safe a lot of the time (because they could "overpower" your finger, since it's under them, I guess) Anyway, that's it, and he's very pretty and I wish you guys well with raising him.

[@brianpartlow5530]

Cute little dragon. I'm new to them but I figured out how to get them to drink. Use a dropper or even a peice of veggie to place a drop of water on the tip of his nose. He'll lick it, figure out he likes it and look for more. I got him for the kids, I'm more of a monitor guy. I've been reading and watching videos. They are more work than a baby monitor. My monitor drank on his own, ate on his own, bathed on his own from day one. Our baby dragon is like having a human infant. Make sure he eats, make sure he drinks, give him a warm bath. It's all good, he's a super cute, curious about everything. He'll sit on my hand real nice. When my monitor was a baby, he wanted to fight half the time.

I have a bearded dragon the same colour about 8-10 months old and when yours was in the bottom of the bag, the position it was in was lying in meant that it was unhappy and when it was on your hand it was agitated as its tail was curved in the air, same as when he was in the box. Hope all goes well for u all. Locusts and fresh rocket is really good for beardy's and if you use a syringe to try and give it some water then that's great.

There are numerous reputable online breeders who will ship babies to your home. I would caution against buying a bearded dragon from a pet store chain, as they usually cannot provide information about their breeders and don't have expertise on reptiles. I got my baby from Atomic Lizard Ranch: atomiclizardranch.net/bearded-dragons-for-sale/ Also, I hear that a lot of people try to re-home their bearded dragons via Craigslist when they can no longer care for them, so that would be a good place to check as well!

I'd say Craiglist itself is a pretty safe and reliable website. If you're worried about meeting weirdos, you may want to bring a friend with you and ask the owner to meet you just outside of the house first, then you can go inside if you get good vibes. The standard advice is to meet Craiglist sellers at a safe public location (like a library), but that would be hard to do with a reptile!

It is more better if you mist there greens (or whatever vegetable they perfer) becuause they don't drink that much water and if you mist there backs they will soak in the water.

[@MeetMarmaduke]

Thanks for the info! You're right that I rarely see him drinking the water from his bowl, he usually prefers to just sit in it :D I like the idea of misting his greens instead. Thanks again!

[@devontaearmstrong8933]

Meet Marmaduke No problem, Nice bearded dragon by the way love the colors.

[@darthreaper6311]

@@devontaearmstrong8933 Yeah i got my bearded dragon a year ago and wondered why he wasn't drinking water out of the bowl. So now i just water his veggies. Can't believe he is almost 2 years already

[@sassydaisy123]

Cute!! How do you take care of it!!? Does it need light! ?What do you feed it??

[@MeetMarmaduke]

There are many more videos that cover all of these topics! :) Yes he needs special lighting and he eats insects, fruits, and veggies.

Meet Marmaduke Thank you! I’ll check the videos out!💙

Hi!!! I really want a beardie! One question is, how could he breathe in there?

[@Matt-bh6yp]

this is the exact size of my beardie. just gave him his first bath today he absolutely took a huge defecation... still love him XD

Pooping in the bath is actually a great way to get them potty trained!!

How long did it take him to become more comfortable and to end that shocked phase he was in? Did he eat anything that day? Coming from a soon-to-be beardie owner!

[@MeetMarmaduke]

He didn't eat anything the first day, or the day after. But after 48 hours he was eating and acting normally! If you check out the couple videos I posted right after this one, you can see me trying to feed him and the time when he ate his first BUG! Congrats on your soon-to-be new friend :)

[@nolanpearson211]

@@MeetMarmaduke Is this pretty normal behavior after first obtaining your dragon? I feel like I'd be in a panic if my new buddy didn't eat for 2 whole days.. But thank you for the advice!

[@MeetMarmaduke]

@@nolanpearson211 Yes it is normal for reptiles, it's called relocation stress. I wouldn't worry too much unless your beardie goes a week or two without eating, then maybe it's time for a vet visit to check for fecal parasites. Actually it's a good idea to get a vet checkup anyway, within a month of getting him/her!

Does where you got Marm from do only bearded dragons or other reptiles?

[@MeetMarmaduke]

Atomic Lizard Ranch, they just do bearded dragons and feeder insects.

[@ThinqAJ]

I'm getting a bearded dragon soon & I've done a lot of research on them, but it says they carry salmonella and I was wondering how common is it to catch it from them?

[@MeetMarmaduke]

Yes, bearded dragons can carry salmonella, just like turtles, snakes, and chickens. However, if you wash your hands frequently (especially before eating or touching your face), and regularly clean/disinfect their enclosure to remove poop, I wouldn't worry about it. Marmaduke is actually potty trained now and doesn't ever poop in his tank, which makes it even easier to contain the potential salmonella! I can't speak to the frequency of people getting ill from bearded dragon salmonella, but proper hygiene will mitigate the risk.
