Im not sure whats wrong with him of why he wont eat, id say take him/her to a vet that works with reptiles as soon as you can, he either doesnt like the food or is sick maybe, take him to a vet please.

Can we feed our bearded dragons just vegetables and not bugs?

No, you should always give your bearded dragon insects, this is what gives them the calcium and fat that they need, even if its not on a regular basis

Can you feed a bearded dragon lettuce

You may, but it's not recommended because there's no protein value. They are mostly water

Hi there!, i was wondering if bearded dragons can eat centipedes.

some one

I don't suggest it because some can be poisonous. It's probably best to stick to crickets, horn worms, meal worms, and of course the veggies and fruits listed.

I just got a new baby bearded dragon (we already have an adult male) and she has quite a few stress lines. I know some are normal at first while they adjust however I've noticed she is nervous in her basking area because of her reflection. She is even waving at herself and she fell while scratching at the glass. I noticed in one of your videos that Regal's tank is painted. What type of paint did you use for that? I'd like to paint her tank to reduce her stress and keep her safe. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
