Bearded Dragon Care: Everything You Need to Know

Bearded dragons, or "beardies," are moderately sized lizards native to Australia and can make great pets. They vary in color but are often light tan to brown with long, thick tails and spiky, beard-like collars around their necks.

While bearded dragons are generally considered good pets, even for beginners, they have complex nutritional and environmental needs. Special equipment and a fair amount of time are needed to care for bearded dragons. However, they are generally social and easy to tame, and they show a range of fascinating behaviors that make them interesting to watch.
