Bearded Dragooooonnnn!

Well.... I feel in love. A few days ago somebody dropped a Bearded Dragon off at the pet store and my friend let me hold him... Alas, I am now hooked. My parents are going to hate me.

I have started the task of researching the little devils, but I was wondering if any of you guys have good advice and/or caresheets. I have found several online caresheets, but a lit of them have somewhat different advice and having no previous knowledge I feel a bit lost in a sea of advice.

My biggest issue is going to be housing. I am probably going to buy a full or partially grown Lizard from Craigslist, as that is often cheeper and I am low in money. It's going to take a long while to get things ready... But I am already very excited. The only thing I really know about at this point, however, are snakes so it will be quite an adventure!

Bearded Dragons are really easy to take care of you shouldn't have any problems taking care of one as long as you read the care sheets. You said you were gonna have problems with housing, this may be a problem because I wouldn't suggest being cheap and getting a tank any smaller than a 55 long for a full grown beardy. otherwise theres lighting and heating elements to deal with and no matter what the petshop owners say, don't use sand.

And there will be UVB bulbs to have to buy and they aren't cheap.
But we all know how Bearded Dragons are!

Bearded Dragons are great, you can't go wrong with one of them.
