The most simplified and well explained setup Unlike going round and round and ending up in confusion this video helped me out a lot getting a beardie around next month
Thank you fir this video! I have been looking into bearded dragons for a little bit but I felt overwhelmed about their set up. Very clear and concise video which has eased my mind!
I’m Australian. Where we live is bearded dragon territory. Once a nest was accidentally excavated when preparing for a new shed. My son incubated the undamaged eggs. One hatched and that became his pet. His setup is much the same as yours Great info. 👍👍👍👍
It is currently 1:15 AM here in Southern California and instead of finishing my AP Bio homework, I am watching a man put a lizard, a stick, a rock, and bowls into a huge ass glass box.
Great video! I have been researching how to take care of our newly acquired beardie and this has by far been the most informative information I have found. Thanks for the great tutorial!
i watched your video on ferrets, that helped me so much before i got my ferret a year ago. now this is helping me with the process of learning then buying a bearded dragon
So happy to hear the info you gave about lighting. I've heard so much misinformation about what lighting they need. (We learned the hard way and had a vet properly inform us- we trusted petsmart, big mistake) its nice to hear some good genuine info about bearded dragon care.
if anyone wants to use these mats (and i really reccomend it) heres a tip: put some velcro around the edge of your grass matt and around the edge of your terrarium , that way nothing will get underneath it ( insects and stuff)
Thank you so much! I agree with the other comment- this is the least confusing tutorial ever...you made clear and simplistic - can't thank you enough!!
Thanks so much, my son is getting a bearded dragon from a family friend and ive been pretty lost on how to get ready for him. This video answered all my questions much appreciated!
Thanks, had soo many videos over explaining things. Would have burned my lizard; I had no idea you have to turn off the light at night. Obviously when winter comes, my house gets cold and I would consider maybe getting a night time bulb. Every video made it seem that you had to have the tank at a certain temperature always. Great video, cant wait to get my beared dragon soon. Just need to buy the lamp, and then I could buy the lizard 😬👍
You do need a certain temperature hot spot. But, that's it; and, only during the day. As long as your home stays over 60F, no need for any heating at night. If you are concerned in winter, a small / low wattage ceramic heat emitter, or, red reptile heatlight can be left on at night.
@@yesyes1299 Yes, I know that "information" is spreading online. But, I've kept countless reptiles for 30+ years. Never an issue with red lights. But yes, ceramic heat emitters are a great option.
me and my boyfriend have been researching these little guys because we are ingerested into adding to our family thank you so much for your reccomendations and information
No problem. Remember, you should research, setup tank, test everything, then bring the pet home. Most important for dragons is to get the proper temperature. Can't just throw a light on and call it good. Must test and adjust if needed. Proper temperature and UVB lighting and you should be set.
the best way to go if you want sand is NOT to use the calcium sand. instead you should use play sand as if ingested it will not clump together like other "reptile safe " products
Taku That is one of the biggest problems I had with sand insects living in it. It's a pain to clean as well. Eco carpet works well as does plain old news paper. While not as pleasing to the eyes it serves a purpose and is relatively cheap even Free in some places.
Nice informative video. I was trying to come up with some sort of plan for the dragon I was going to receive. I have only done leaopard geckos before and had read that the was a little more involved with bearded dragons. I was going to use a 2 light setup but after watching this I immediately ordered a powersun setup and today I went to the pet store and got a nice piece of wood and a sweet rock. Thanks for the ideas!
Ive been saving up for a bearded dragon for a while now since I first saw your "Before you buy a bearded dragon" Video and I now am able to get one due to your thorough video and easy set up!
Thank you! I also have a question, I've done a lot of research but I am unsure on where to get a dragon, or which place is reliable and safe to get them from. Do you have any suggestions?
Check google and see if there are any animal expos around you. You may find some 'all animal expos' or 'reptile expos' where you could find some good breeders. Also, check if there is a reptile only pet store somewhere near you. There may be one not too far away. But only like a small family owned reptile only store, not a big pet store. Last option I can think of would be online. I purchased my bearded and rankins dragons online from LLLReptile. They arrived healthy and have had no problems for years.
My parents said I can get a bearded dragon and I've watched a lot of videos trying to study this one has been the easiest least confusing and helpful one thank you so much!
List of what? This is basically what you need for their cage. Only other thing is feeding. They eat mostly all insects when young, but as they age they eat more and more veggies. They need a variety of veggies daily as adults with insects just once or twice a week. As young dragons they need insects every day and veggies just start offering about once a week. As they age and grow, start lowering insect feeding and upping veggie feedings.
Thanks so much this helped out a lot I'm getting a bearded dragon for my birthday and I've never had one so I had no idea how to set up a cage or what to do you made it so simple and easy to follow I just wrote down what I needed and it helped a lot thanks bro
Comickazee Shazam As far as I've read you can give them apples. But without the "shield" because it might cause trouble for their stomaches. Same goes for bananas. But I wouldn't feed that too often because there's a lot of water in it
it's 1am and i have to get up at 7, but for some reason i'm watching some man put a lizard that i will never get and a stick into a fish tank. what even is my life lol.
Thank you! I am planning on getting a bearded dragon this month. I took notes and i think I am ready! Thank you for making a video about this, I am going to subscribe
Kaijun Yang annoy them about getting a dog or a cat, and eventually ask for a Iizard like you're settling for it. By that time hopefully they'll just want you to shut up, and think hey, at least it lives in a cage
My mom is ok with dogs, which i got, but died after 2 days because of an unknown sickness. My parents really don't like lizards, so I might have to give up on it. Thank you very much to help me.
The way I did it was to make them feel guilty and cry. Long story short I was supposed to go to college and dorm and they didn't let me, so I said, "if you ain't going to let me dorm I am getting my bearded dragon" make sure you act like a bitch too!
Ana Garcia Why would your parents not want you to go to college? I assume you are 18+. If you want to go you should. Doesn't matter if they want you to or not.
I got a rescue dragon for my classroom (and my home when he isn't at school). He's well loved but the learning curve is steep and I keep being afraid I'm not doing things right so this was a relief! Thanks. He came with a night light as well as a day light. Anyway - thanks for the nice clear video!
Mary Ellen Wessels Make sure basking temperature is correct and make sure to have a UVB light. I assume the light you have may not be UVB and just a day heat light.
Thank you for this video I'm actually getting a beared dragon this month so now I know how to set up a beared dragon dragon tank hank you very much please make more videos!!!!!!
That's great and I'm glad that works for you. I just like people to know that every dragon is different just like every animal is different. I've seen many dragons come into my vets office with dehydration problems and starvation problems because, people just don't realize that they have to, in certain circumstances feed and water their dragon a different way. Jasper is 6 and will only take water from a eyedropper.
Thinking about getting a bearded dragon. Very easy for beginners. Did alot of research about it and I think I'm ready to go. Not expensive, don't take to much time to care for, very calm lovely animals, I like it :)
Thank you so much for this great set up video. I can now see this is going to cost a lot of money so I'm a little concerned if I'll be able to get all this by Christmas. I'm on fixed income and grandkids don't quite understand that, lol. Thanks again for sharing this great video.
Welcome back :) I have many videos on many different topics! From remote control helicopters/planes/boats, to Jeep offroading, pets, camping/road trips, and much more! Enjoy!
Remember, cage should be setup days before you bring your dragon home. Everything should be tested, all temperatures and such. Once tank is perfect, then bring the pet home.
Madison Miller how is it easy to clean? Everytime the lizard craps and I'm too late to clean it and it becomes hard and dry, I just clean the whole tank. Or if possible that one area immediately.
This is the best, least confusing bearded dragon setup I've ever seen. Well done! I'm going to show this to people. It's so easy to follow.
Thanks for the kind words!
Bri Gecko no kidding. I hate it when ppl over complicate simple things. Awesome video!
+Earthling1984 do you switch off your uvb light as well as the basking lamp at nlght
Of course both off at night.
+Earthling1984 I think my bearded dragon is not to good he looks yellowish I am taking him to the vets tomorrow wat is your oppinion ??
Finally, a guy not trying to sell you useless crap and actually is caring and genuine with the animal and the care. I appreciate it.
I should be doing schoolwork. But hey, at least I know how to set up a cage in case I get a Bearded Dragon
Oscar Sunkiss me too 😂
Oscar Sunkiss sme i got a test tomorrow's
lols same, i have a paper due
Oscar Sunkiss 😂😂
This is me currently lmao
The cat is the real star here.
Yes :)
@Framed - totally agree! hahaha He's running the whole show ... too cool is kee!!
The most simplified and well explained setup
Unlike going round and round and ending up in confusion
this video helped me out a lot
getting a beardie around next month
Thank you. Im now less stressed about getting a bearded dragon
They are cool. But just know they can be tricky, brumation alone is another topic you should educate yourself in before getting one
If I'm ever a lizard. I want to live in your house Earthling
weird
.
Nessa 13 😂😂
Guys 150 gallons is the ABSOLUTE MINIMUM SIZE TANK FOR A BEARDED DRAGON
Some Random Stuff not actually, for an adult it’s really 95-110 gallons. Not quite 150, and for a baby, 25-80 gallons
Thank you for such a non-confusing, educational experience about setting up a beardie habitat.
I like how he's just chilling😂
NARWHAL MAN yeah mine chills for 10 minutes then freaks out
NARWHAL MAN thats why they make great pets
There shouldnt even be a water dish in there.
I watched the cat mostly watching this I'll have to rewatch
Thank you fir this video! I have been looking into bearded dragons for a little bit but I felt overwhelmed about their set up. Very clear and concise video which has eased my mind!
I’m Australian. Where we live is bearded dragon territory. Once a nest was accidentally excavated when preparing for a new shed. My son incubated the undamaged eggs. One hatched and that became his pet. His setup is much the same as yours Great info. 👍👍👍👍
2:14
cat:hey thats my water bowl 😭
Itz CJ lol he was eyeing it and looking at me like "wtf man".
It is currently 1:15 AM here in Southern California and instead of finishing my AP Bio homework, I am watching a man put a lizard, a stick, a rock, and bowls into a huge ass glass box.
Chris Villegas did you do well on homework tho?
This kinda shit just sucks you in
Great Video! Straight to the point and you actually setting up the terrarium while explaining really helped. Thanks man!
Great video! I have been researching how to take care of our newly acquired beardie and this has by far been the most informative information I have found. Thanks for the great tutorial!
Glad to help!
i watched your video on ferrets, that helped me so much before i got my ferret a year ago. now this is helping me with the process of learning then buying a bearded dragon
why am I watching this, I don't even have a dragon
Eygenia dargaki
Nakoa indeed
it's his hair and beard. I don't have a dragon either lol :p
I have one but his cage is set up perfectly don't know why I'm watching this but it is a good video
Because subconsciously you want a beardie baby
I watched your Ferret video from 2 years ago. It's super helpful! Thank you!
So happy to hear the info you gave about lighting. I've heard so much misinformation about what lighting they need. (We learned the hard way and had a vet properly inform us- we trusted petsmart, big mistake) its nice to hear some good genuine info about bearded dragon care.
You're welcome. Thanks for the intelligent comment as well! Anyone else reading this, I discuss lighting needed at: 6:15
if anyone wants to use these mats (and i really reccomend it) heres a tip: put some velcro around the edge of your grass matt and around the edge of your terrarium , that way nothing will get underneath it ( insects and stuff)
Good tip!
I love them!! This man didn’t move the entire video 🤣🤣
Thank you so much! I agree with the other comment- this is the least confusing tutorial ever...you made clear and simplistic - can't thank you enough!!
I’ve seen your videos before! This was extremely helpful! Thanks a bunch!
I love your curious cat haha. Great video!
@qqklara - kee is in charge of all the details ... plain to see! hehehe
Thanks! I'm excited to get my dragon:)
Thanks so much, my son is getting a bearded dragon from a family friend and ive been pretty lost on how to get ready for him. This video answered all my questions much appreciated!
Amanda Flint Glad to hear!
Very helpful. !! Thank you

@@earthling1984 red lights are bad actually because reptiles see the light, just not in red, ceramic heat emitters are better
@@yesyes1299 Yes, I know that "information" is spreading online. But, I've kept countless reptiles for 30+ years. Never an issue with red lights. But yes, ceramic heat emitters are a great option.
@@earthling1984 well thats your reptiles, not other peoples
@@yesyes1299 I've kept and bred countless species. I've also worked as a vet tech. You can value my opinion, or not. Doesn't matter to me.
me and my boyfriend have been researching these little guys because we are ingerested into adding to our family thank you so much for your reccomendations and information
I remember watching your ferret video so long ago before I bought my ferrets, and now I'm watching this one before I buy a beardie, you're the best!
The cats like... "This video is about me, right??"
:P
This was so helpful because I am going to get a bearded dragon probably
Kylie Grace same
Kylie Grace You should. They are easy to take care of and fun to feed.
Kylie Grace same am gonna name mine godzilla
Kylie Grace me 2! They are too adorable!!!!
Kylie Grace I’m getting one to
Great video, easy to follow. Looks pretty easy. Thanks!
Love the cats checking everything out, great video mate...
Thanks for sharing your substantial experience and knowledge, anyone considering a beardie should watch and learn.
No one should watch this
Watch out there's a wild tiger on the loose 0:48
Seriously, the easiest video to follow! Thank youuu. Just brought home my first bearded dragon today & had some questions
No problem. Remember, you should research, setup tank, test everything, then bring the pet home. Most important for dragons is to get the proper temperature. Can't just throw a light on and call it good. Must test and adjust if needed. Proper temperature and UVB lighting and you should be set.
Thank you soo much!! I was freaking out from the other confusing videos and now I think this has helped me! Hopefully getting my beardie in june
I'm getting a bearded dragon for Christmas!
BOZZE hey I am to lol even I’m late for this comment
i already have one
its christmas, just got one
m.ua-cam.com/video/LuKzt7p-MnM/v-deo.html
Same
that curious cat lol so cute
Mikaela Brooks :)
im getting a beardie in two weeks! So excited! Im trying to up my knowledge about them because ive never had one! Thanks for the video :)
That cat is super chill. Like the video, m8!
Very informative. We are planning on getting a beardie in the next couple months and I was not sure what all to get for them. Thanks!
I'm so glade I watched this it helped so much BYW what should I name my bearded dragon 🐉 I'm thinking Gubby
Anna Banana name it Mr. T
the best way to go if you want sand is NOT to use the calcium sand. instead you should use play sand as if ingested it will not clump together like other "reptile safe " products
Windex best not to use sand at all. Sand is just for looking. Paper is cheap and easy to clean.
Meal worms can go into the sand
Taku That is one of the biggest problems I had with sand insects living in it. It's a pain to clean as well. Eco carpet works well as does plain old news paper. While not as pleasing to the eyes it serves a purpose and is relatively cheap even Free in some places.
Not true it depends on YOUR bearded dragon as they are all different .
Sand is never a good idea. They lick their surroundings and will digest. Even in small amounts it can cause them do get blocked up.
I am soon get a bearded dragon and this had been the most helpful Video for me thank you so much!
thank you so much this helped me a lot with almost all of my questions and seeing the things im doing wrong in my dragons tank
The cat is distracting me lol. Omfg it’s so cute
Can u do a full bearded dragon care video?
Pets101 I have some from the past. Seach my channel for "dragon care". I do cover most the basics in this video.
Earthling1984 okay thanks!
Nice informative video. I was trying to come up with some sort of plan for the dragon I was going to receive. I have only done leaopard geckos before and had read that the was a little more involved with bearded dragons. I was going to use a 2 light setup but after watching this I immediately ordered a powersun setup and today I went to the pet store and got a nice piece of wood and a sweet rock. Thanks for the ideas!
Awesome! Glad to hear and glad you are researching before you get your pet! I hope you and your dragon live happy and healthy for years to come!
Ive been saving up for a bearded dragon for a while now since I first saw your "Before you buy a bearded dragon" Video and I now am able to get one due to your thorough video and easy set up!

Drift wood
Kittengamer andmusic then itll just mold dont do that
nice video , love your cat
My parents said I can get a bearded dragon and I've watched a lot of videos trying to study this one has been the easiest least confusing and helpful one thank you so much!
Could you make a list video for a beginner for beardie
List of what? This is basically what you need for their cage. Only other thing is feeding. They eat mostly all insects when young, but as they age they eat more and more veggies. They need a variety of veggies daily as adults with insects just once or twice a week. As young dragons they need insects every day and veggies just start offering about once a week. As they age and grow, start lowering insect feeding and upping veggie feedings.
Okay thank you for the reply
can you plz show how to set up the light to mimic the "sun"
Patty Padilla Get a UVB light. Put it on a timer. Done. Make sure basking area is also of proper temperature.
ok thank you
this speaks truth and this is how I got an F in language arts XD
Thanks this was super helpful, I'm getting my dragon next Thursday!
Thanks so much this helped out a lot I'm getting a bearded dragon for my birthday and I've never had one so I had no idea how to set up a cage or what to do you made it so simple and easy to follow I just wrote down what I needed and it helped a lot thanks bro
are apples any good?
Comickazee Shazam As far as I've read you can give them apples. But without the "shield" because it might cause trouble for their stomaches. Same goes for bananas. But I wouldn't feed that too often because there's a lot of water in it
Ashley I feed my bear die apples pretty often because she refused to drink out of her water bowl 😂
it's 1am and i have to get up at 7, but for some reason i'm watching some man put a lizard that i will never get and a stick into a fish tank. what even is my life lol.
This was such an awesome set up I♥️it. PS cute 🐱
Thank you! I am planning on getting a bearded dragon this month. I took notes and i think I am ready! Thank you for making a video about this, I am going to subscribe
Glad I could help!
Please do better research. This is a bad video.
that cat tho
How do i persuade my parents to get a bearded dragon? Please help.

Just show them this video so they can see how easy it is. And tell them that it will teach you lessons on responsibilities.
Ana Garcia Why would your parents not want you to go to college? I assume you are 18+. If you want to go you should. Doesn't matter if they want you to or not.
Thank you for this informative video . It really helped.
watching your newest video now, it's very informal to me, since my neighbors have 2 bearded dragons.
I have a 75 gallon it's not long but it's wide
The cat at 0:35
This is the best video , you explained it perfectly thankyou. Thankyou.
Thanks good information and easy to understand!
Do u grow devil's lettuce? 😂
Thanks I learnt most of the stuff need to know from you
Thank you man. Well needed info.
Thanks this xmas I might get s beardie this is really helpful !
I got a rescue dragon for my classroom (and my home when he isn't at school). He's well loved but the learning curve is steep and I keep being afraid I'm not doing things right so this was a relief! Thanks. He came with a night light as well as a day light. Anyway - thanks for the nice clear video!
Mary Ellen Wessels Make sure basking temperature is correct and make sure to have a UVB light. I assume the light you have may not be UVB and just a day heat light.
Make sure the night light is a black light or a ceramic bulb, red bulbs can interfere with his sleep patern
Intensefun No heating or lights are needed at night... what are you even talking about or commenting here for.....
Thank you for this video I'm actually getting a beared dragon this month so now I know how to set up a beared dragon dragon tank hank you very much please make more videos!!!!!!
Sidney Bovia how's the dragon?
This vid the best bearded dragon set up out of all the 34 vids I tried to look at 😀👍
definitely not.
Nice Video Reptile 🦎Bearded Dragons. Cool pet.
That's great and I'm glad that works for you. I just like people to know that every dragon is different just like every animal is different.

This beardie is dehydrated, the tank is pathetic
you are the only person that i have watched that knows what they are doing
This is really helpful I'm planning to get a bearded dragon next year
Thinking about getting a bearded dragon. Very easy for beginners. Did alot of research about it and I think I'm ready to go. Not expensive, don't take to much time to care for, very calm lovely animals, I like it :)
Food can be kind of expensive, especially when adults and when they need fresh greens, veggies, and fruits daily. But, good pets for sure.
Thank you so much for this great set up video. I can now see this is going to cost a lot of money so I'm a little concerned if I'll be able to get all this by Christmas. I'm on fixed income and grandkids don't quite understand that, lol. Thanks again for sharing this great video.
Holy crap, I remember watching this guy and his turtle videos years back. You haven't changed to much, but still good information.
Welcome back :) I have many videos on many different topics! From remote control helicopters/planes/boats, to Jeep offroading, pets, camping/road trips, and much more! Enjoy!
Thank you so much, this was very helpful
Yo this helped a lot thanks so much 💪🏿❤
Thanks for the info. looking to get one soon!
I’m going to be getting a Beardie soon so this video is so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much!
Please do actual research. This is not a good video to go off of.

Very helping thank you so much!
ur cats are the real stars of this video
Bro thanks i really love this it helped me alot and love your cat's too!
I’m getting one today so thanks this was quite helpful
Remember, cage should be setup days before you bring your dragon home. Everything should be tested, all temperatures and such. Once tank is perfect, then bring the pet home.
100% agree with you on the reptile carpet. i've used it ever since my beardie was a baby and i've never had problems either! easy to clean as well.
Madison Miller how is it easy to clean? Everytime the lizard craps and I'm too late to clean it and it becomes hard and dry, I just clean the whole tank. Or if possible that one area immediately.
drdizzly I usually spot clean every day and then wash the carpet every week. Most of them are machine washable.
I’m getting a bearded dragon soon this helped me out
Thank you!!! Very helpful!!
