I got a bearded dragon less than a year ago. I loved him so much, I decided to get another.

A few months down the line I find myself with 54 healthy eggs!!!

They started hartching about a month and a half ago. The pet shop nearby said that they would take them but they got some given to them so they don't need mine any more.

They are healthy, eating loads, pooping, running arround and have beautiful colours coming through! Their parents are German Giant Breed. They are each a mix of yellowey/orangy/browny colours.


Here are some pics:





And a the parents:

Spike - very creative i know (Male)


Mrs. Spike - i really could not think of any names! (female)


Together:


If you thought my choise of names could not get any less creative, I have a cat caled Kitty!

I should add that I have 4 'deformed' baby bearded dragons that anyone can have for free. I have been unsure what to do about these guys so any advise would be good. I also have one missing about 1cm of the end of his tail that someone can have for free (i think one of the others nipped him)

The 4 that are deformed have beant/curly backs and curly tails. I am not sure how long they will live for but I don't have enough room to keep them with more on the way.

Hi,

Where abouts are you?

Jingle Bells.

In a town called Bexhill on the South East Coast. Next to Hastings.

Only have the 4 deformed ones atm. Got another 22 due to hatch soon.

The deformed ones kind of look like they have been crossed with a camel! poor things

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. What a shame, you are no where near me as I would have had one of the "Disabled" Beardies.

I wish you luck with your up coming hatchlings and eggs. I do hope you manage to get homes for your Special Beardies.

Hi , the deformities ur describing would suggest a lack in a nutrient of some varity, might be worth googleing and looking into as if 4 of the youngsters have it the others may well develop it too.

its okay they'll be fine - i wish i could tak them off your hands but i've got my own babies cming soon and i'm miles away.

They are gorgeous
How long have you had bearded dragons? My boyfriend was thinking of getting two are they more easy to look after in a pair? And does it cost you alot to keep them ?

Hi,

Bearded Dragons are really best kept on their own. They can live together but be prepared to move one into another Viv.

Female and Male = Male will stress Female pestering her and you don't want to really over breed her.

Male and Male = will fight and you will have Vet Bills.

Female and Female will live together but they could end up fighting also.

Feeding/cost = if you have Two be prepared for the cost of buying food. They eat for England hahaha.
Replacing UVB tube every 5/6months...bulbs, and on going cost of Veg/supplements (I grow my own).

Faecal and Vet check should be done when you get your Beardie/s. This will rule out Worms and other Nasties.
I had this done as a matter of course and sadly Florence has Crypto. I have ongoing Vet Bills for her now but she is worth the effort.

So to sum up
Two = more cost
One = is cheaper but will still cost a bit for live food.

I am not trying to put you/BF off but only making you aware of the outgoings. I wouldn't be good if you both got attatched to the Dragon/s and then found that they were eating into your time and Money.

They make super pets and curse myself sometimes for not getting one sooner...uhhh

Do loads of research and do not be afraid to ask questions.

I'm sure somebody will be along to add to the above. There are some good people on here that have far more experience than I do, so the above is from my perspective and no one elses!

Good luck with whatever your BF chooses to do...and if you get....Pics pleeeeaaassseeeee

Jingle Bells.

Thanks dude ! I will keep you updated!
