I get burnt out about 5 times a year. Gotta stick with it through the burn out and remind yourself that you love it and rediscover your love! Kind of like a marriage lol
I totally agree some days are awesome some are bad but I look at it as part of my life now an what would I do without them and I get attached which I gotta work on
Dude your awake by 4am or 5am I know for a fact I’ve talked to you on a weekend that early lol! Definitely a lot of time! Although I’m not a beardie guy I’m counting on you to stay in the hobby bro! I like your do it yourself content and your Python content! I’m still finding my lane but I’m in it becuase the passion not the money so I think il be here for many more years I hope! Helps my a.d.d and is like therapy for me lol! I would love to make money eventually but for now I’m ok with learning and growing and because of your do it yourself videos it’s made it a little more affordable to me! Patreon members comes in handy when I need a little extra advice or help! Keep up the good stuff bro bro! Better not ghost us one day i know what your building looks like without a roof so il find you and knock on your door and ask where you been ;)
I really enjoy when you go off on your rants, because I end up learning a lot more. You are a fountain of knowledge in your field. 😌 How’s the building coming along? Update video anytime soon?
I've had bearded dragons for 21 years and even bred for my current oldest, a 13 year old male who prefers to spend his days sleeping. I just wanted to say thank you for the info regarding bearded dragon ages and sizes and what is and isn't over or under weight. There's been so many changes and re-evaluation in the last few years for bearded dragon care that it's becoming difficult to tell what is and isn't reliable. I got a new female last year and she turned 1 year old in August. I was really worried that she was undersized despite my efforts to feed her lots of dusted bugs (mostly crickets because Dubia aren't allowed where I live and hornworm treats) with her salad, but that 1 year old male you showed is the same length as her, so that helped my spirit. Thanks for continuing to educate people who love bearded dragons, and for caring for and creating such beautiful dragons of your own.
@Samaru163 thank you so much for watching! And I will continue to educate and hopefully make bearded dragons owners/breeders more knowledgeable about what's right and wrong.
@qbstailsnscales They have a chart that shows the same feeding amount for babies, juveniles, and adults separated into three categories. It says babies 30 grams and under: 5-6 appropriate sized bugs no bigger than the width between their eyes fed once daily with greens daily. Juveniles 30 grams and over: 5-6 appropriate sized bugs every other day, greens daily. Adults: 5-6 appropriate sized bugs 2x per week, greens daily. This is the chart from beardie vet.
They are saying the feeding advice about 20 to 30 bugs a day is outdated and leads to obese dragons and calcium buildup, so I guess that's why he came up with the chart.
One point you made in the video, “if there’s a breeder you want to buy from they might not be around by the time your ready to purchase from them”, I have found myself in this situation and it royally sucks. I was planning to purchase from Brian B one day but life events got in the way of me “being ready” and now pretty much all his breeding animals have sold. He had such a big range of reptiles at BHB. I missed my change big time but now I know if I want something I just have to go for it.
@sarahjean3392 yea I was actually in a similar situation.. I wanted to come to the Reptarium but when I found the news of his illness, I really wanted to make time, and then I never did.. sadly, I never got to meet him and I've been wanting to for years.
you can make vids about in delth personality types to expect and you can take that time to discuss some of your more expressive dragons personalities in detail
kinda give a spectrum of multiple personalities of beardies or other reptile personalities for people who might be trying to figure out just who their dragon might be
@@qbstailsnscales people can say whatever but to me it's 99% because the market is oversaturated. Bearded dragons and crested geckos are literally everywhere and they breed and lay like crazy and you can't keep the babies together long either so it's a hassle on that also. Trust me if these breeders were killing it they would not be walking away.
I can tell you the problem I with your with the bearded dragon community, is Moët of them are scammer last year I tried to get a bearded dragon for a grandson that has autism and one of the places that he goes for therapy has a bearded dragon and he wanted one. I went to five different people and spent over $6500 and never was able to get one. They all scammed me I just gave up.
I recommend the gentleman you are watching. I've bought 2 reptiles from him & it's been the best experience. Unless he doesn't have what I'm looking for, I will always do business with him.

The 5 to 6 bugs a day thing came from Johnathan Howard (known as the beardie vet) in Australia.
@@mrstea1813 that is not recommended for baby dragons.. maybe adults?

@mrstea1813 yea but 5-6 bugs a day leads to malnourished dragons.. so I guess people need to figure it out lol

@@sarahjean3392 yea.. he left a huge impact on this earth.
a great video idea would be you showing the construction of the building youre doing
kinda over the course of its cometion drop lil update/timelapse work vids
you can make vids about in delth personality types to expect and you can take that time to discuss some of your more expressive dragons personalities in detail
kinda give a spectrum of multiple personalities of beardies or other reptile personalities for people who might be trying to figure out just who their dragon might be
idk. just shooting here
@kodenamekam I've been updates, I didn't feel a construction time lapse was good lol
This is great and accurate lol It's not easy money. It's a passion
@@courtneyroten2843 absolutely!!
its dr.johnathan Howard who recommends that feeding regimen. otherwise known as the beardie vet.
@melissachesney7535 not good advice for babies.
Gotta have the money, time and space. Patience. Anyone who is in it for “fast money” probably won’t last very long.
Anyone who thinks you'll get rich off breeding bearded dragons did not do any research before going into it.
@@kexoticmorphs8121 did not! Absolutely didn't!
What up man glad u been posting more content
@jonleis7762 absolutely! Typically I do 2x a week every week. Don't usually miss unless I'm really busy.
Already spent about 13k on dragon and enclosures in just a couple months
