    Welcoming Marmaduke, an 8-week old male tangerine bearded dragon, to his new home! As mentioned at the start of the video, we got him from Atomic Lizard Ranch: atomiclizardra...
    Thanks everyone for the useful tips & feedback in the comments!
    I'd also like to address some of the complaints:
    1. What's with the "terrible" packaging? -- This way of shipping baby bearded dragons is actually industry standard and has a high survival rate. The way Atomic Lizard Ranch packed him was quite thoughtful: the bag was made of breathable cloth, it was loosely packed with cushioning paper, the styrofoam box had holes poked in it, and he was only in the box for 16 hours. This packaging is a compromise between giving enough room to breathe, but snug enough so that he wouldn't be jostled around too much during shipping. Also, FedEx has an agreement with sellers who use this "LIVE Reptiles2You" packaging to transport them with care. Here's a website with more details on that: www.reptiles2yo...
    I can almost guarantee that the reptiles sold in pet stores (which obviously had to be shipped from somewhere!!!) were NOT packaged or shipped as carefully as Marmaduke was. Before purchasing Marmaduke, I went to 4 different pet stores in town, including 2 locally owned reptile shops, but NOT ONE of them could tell me anything about the breeders, how far away the dragons came from, what day they were born on, etc. The enclosures were dirty and over-crowded. The staff also had minimal knowledge of proper bearded dragon care. I would much rather directly support an ethical breeder like Atomic Lizard Ranch -- one who can tell me how the parents and babies were raised -- than pay an uninformed pet store for simply being the middle man.
    The comments complaining about the packaging are getting REALLY old, people!! I might start deleting any new ones ....
    2. Why did you take soooOoOOoOoooOoo long to get him out of the bag? -- Imagine that you had just been shipped in a box through the mail. You're healthy and intact, but probably disoriented and in a bit of shock. Wouldn't you prefer to be handled gently? The little dude was scared, burrowing into the corner of the bag with his claws stuck in to the fabric, didn't want to come out yet. Rather than just yanking him out for the sake of impatient UA-cam viewers, I gave him a few minutes to get used to my voice and come around to the idea of me getting him out. And he turned out just fine!!! He was handled sparingly for the first 2 weeks (as is the standard recommendation for newly relocated reptiles) and has turned out to be a perfectly well-adjusted, inquisitive, cuddly, friendly, and adventurous beardie. Watch some of the other videos if you wanna check him out!
    Thanks for watching!!!!! 😁
    P.S. In case you're concerned, the live plants in the terrarium have been carefully selected as non-toxic to bearded dragons and should be safe if he decides to take a nibble 😃

      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.

    • @MeetMarmaduke
      @MeetMarmaduke  6 років тому +13

      @@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.

      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

    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.

    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.

      It's possible that his colors will fade a bit to be less bright over time, but he'll still be mostly tangerine. Interestingly he does get some pretty purple patterns on his back & tail when he's out in the sun - check that out in newer videos!

      PS. Due to the co-habitating, they were seeing each other as Food and nibbling the toes off of each other. One has No toes on a back foot and the other has one toe remaining. I already have a handicap from a previous owner that died and the baby was dropped and has paralysis on the back right leg, however is doing wonderful these days.
