- Good Morning, Reptilians! Look at that, 2 Sundays in a row. 😎

I realize now that I missed a couple things, like her food dish (which I made a couple years back) and her food itself (dubia roaches, horn worms, occasionally wax worms, occasionally silk worms, and a variety of veggies. These are usually collard greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, butternut squash, bell peppers, shaved carrots, and sometimes strawberries)

Hi! 💜For anyone interested in further supporting the channel:
patreon.com/EllesReptiles
I don't have a beardie,but I still enjoy your videos. I'm so pleased as to how well you have recovered from your stroke.💞🦎
Thank you so much! I'm doing much better than I ever would have even hoped to be doing 💜
Morning young lady. We are soooo glad you are doing well. As always, you and your family are in our prayers. 🙏🏾🙏🏻🪖🇺🇸✝️
Thank you so much! Yea I'm feeling pretty good! Finally at a point where a couple of hours of editing at a time doesn't mess with my vision (usually). Thanks for always thinking of us! 💜
Good morning Elle, wonderful to hear from you 😃. It’s good to have the best of my Sunday morning back! 🦎
Good morning! Aww thank you 🥰
I'm finally at a point where editing for a couple hours at a time usually doesn't mess with my vision. So hopefully I'll have videos up pretty regularly again 🤞🏽
Good morning Elle! I've been doing a bunch of bearded dragon research and saving up for one! I come to your channel and learn more about them! Thank you for helping me with beardie research!
Thank YOU for researching before you get a beardie. You're amazing for that, and already off to a great start! 💜
Yay I love your bearded dragon videos!!! I actually got one because of you I always wanted one as a kid
Awwww that's amazing. 🥹💜
They're such awesome animals!
@@ellesreptiles they really are!!! They’re so personable ☺️
Elle, you make my Sundays!
Awwwww you're too sweet 🥹💜
You saved me and my husband. 💯
We just got our beardie last week...
And all your advice and suggestions have easied our anxiety.
Our humidity went up to 70 last night after trying a heat emitter for 1 night!
We got a higher wattage basking bulb today ..and his humidity dropped!
Thank you!!
i was just hoping for a video like this, thank you!
Oh yay! Hopefully it was helpful! 😊
You sound a lot better we are glad you are feeling better keep up the good work we love your videos
Dubia care videos please and more bearded dragon ones
Thank you thank you! I am definitely feeling better too!
I've done a few gutloading videos, but never a dubia care one on its own 🤔 i can do that!
No, YOU are the bees knees! Great video, thank you so much for the recommendations. I think a lot of these will be super useful for my Mountain Dragons and Blueys too.
Good morning Elle, hope you have an amazing week!! Glad to see you are slowly starting to feel better!!
Thank you so much! I hope you have an amazing week too! 😁
@@ellesreptiles you are welcome!! 😊🤗
Very informative. Thank you for sharing. Have a blesed day!!
Thank you for watching 🥰
Have a wonderful week 💜
One thing I like about videos like this, especially when the person isn't obsessive or evangelical about their methods, is that it shows how we all do some things the same and some things different depending on our animals. I switched from substrate to tile a while back and would never go back, but there are a lot of good arguments for both. But then when it comes to things like lights, overall cage design and supplements, almost all beardie owners recommend the same. It's a good frame of reference for new owners as to what is a cardinal rule and what is subjective.
Thank you! 💜 I always try to make it clear that this is just what I do, and mention other options. I don't think there is always necessarily a "right" way to do something. We're all just doing our best for our animals' wellbeings.
@@ellesreptiles I've honestly never seen a sad beardie owned by an exotic enthusiast. That's one reason I like that attitude. People get all critical of each other, yet all their beardie's look fat and spoiled like Jabba the Hutt. They're FINE. As long as the lights, food and enclosure are right, it's just about understanding your animal's taste and making them happy 😃
Always glad when you do a new video hope you have been feeling better
Thank you so much! I'm much better than I was 🥰
So glad you appear to be doing well and recovering quickly! ❤
Thank you so much 💜💜💜
I’m getting a beardie in about a month and I’m trying to get all of the equipment and decor sorted out
Thank you!
Great video Elle and glad to see you this Sunday morning. Always enjoy advice from you. Keep getting better we Love you and are Praying for you.
GOD BLESS 🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖
Thank you so much. Your support has been so incredibly helpful. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Hello! I hope you are doing well! It’s good to see you! My daughter and I watched all of your bearded dragon videos before getting out baby! Thank you! ❤
Love that you're doing the research first. You're already off to a great start! 💜
@@ellesreptiles😊
Hope you are doing well and glad to see you releasing videos
Thank you! I'm doing much better than I ever thought I could be doing
Just got my beardie Raz a couple days ago!! You're a lifesaver for this
Raz is a great name. Congratulations on the new beardie! 🎉
Your videos have helped me so much with my research for getting my bearded dragon, I’m gonna get mine in a few weeks now. Thank you so much for all the great advice!
Oh yay! Early congrats!!! 🎉
Youre already off to a great start, researching first!
@@ellesreptiles Thank you so much!!
Hi Elle! Exited for this video, I’m trying to upgrade my beardie! Hope you have a great day ❤
Oh yay! Good luck with your upgrade. I hope you have a wonderful day as well 💜
This is very useful Thank you so much!!
Thank YOU for watching! 😊
@@ellesreptiles Ofc! 😊
You're still the best. Don't ever change.
💜💜💜
i have only had (still currently do have him) 1 bearded dragon that has ever drank out of a water dish lol. 99% of the time, they all use it to run through and get substrate all over themselves. oh, beardies :P
That's funny, I want to say zsasz did a couple times when she was a tiny baby, but that's about it. Other than that, she completely avoided it - she wouldn't even use hers as a bathroom, like I've seen some do. Hers just took up room 😅
Nice see familer face on Sunday 👍
Thank you 🥰 it's nice to be back to posting on Sundays
I bet i know the feeling
@@ellesreptiles
Hi, Elle, I'm glad that you are up and making videos. Just remember to take your time no need to rush. I just got my 3-month-old bearded dragon named Rhaegal, and he's on the driftwood basking away. I got an exo terra sand carpet as a substrate. The group on Facebook just frowns upon the substrate of choice. I know it's better than the reptile carpet at least it will file his nails. What do you think?
Thank you! 💜
Sand carpet is better than regular carpet, since it doesn't snag tonails, but it isn't the best choice, as it can harbor bacteria. Especially if your bearded uses the bathroom on it - there's no real way to clean it thoroughly. If you keep it changed out, it can be fine, but that can get very costly and time consuming
@@ellesreptiles Thank you for your feedback 😁. Do you think at 3 months old doing loose substrate would be ok?
Absolutely adore Bearded Dragons. I've had one and miss him so much. My hesitstions for getting another is all of the BUGS as well as the challenge with getting them to eat greens sometimes lol
They're so awesome, but the bugs and the stress can definitely hold you back!
@@ellesreptiles they are!! My Beardie was my best buddy. 😭 maybe one day I have the room and patience for another. They really are worth it.
I have a hard time getting isopods locally at times. Are darkling beetles a good source mixed with springtails or just by themselves for cleanup crew for most tropical and dry enclosures? Springtails remind me of mites inside enclosure and i dont like to see them. Lol. Thanks.
Hey Elle loved the vid, could you do one for a ball python?
Added it to the list! I've got a couple videos already recorded, so it'll be a few weeks, but yes I can 💜
I minute crew👇
👋🏼
Hi Elle, new to your channel but so glad to see you’re doing well 🙏🏾 I just have a quick question…. So we get our 2 baby beardies Tuesday and the terrarium we ordered has a light fixture but the bulb says “uvb/uva reptile light, heating lamp” is this ok for now? Being that it says for bearded dragons 😳
Welcome to the channel! 😊 You should have two different lights, a heating bulb, and a linear UVA/UVB bulb (one that spans most, if not all, of the length of the tank). For the UVA/UVB bulb, Reptisun and Arcadia are two really good brands.
I think what you're talking about is probably a mercury vapor bulb, which some people use without issue, but the problem is they can be very finicky and they don't provide UV across the entirety of the tank.
@@ellesreptiles ooooh ok gotcha! Definitely will get something different for them. Thank you so much
is it possible to use a dimmer switch and a timer switch at the same time?
Hey, love your videos, helped me a lot but at 07:32 Im sure its not healthy to give your dragon tap water expecialy with chlore. This drops wont put the chlore out, just creates a different chemical(forgot the name) + in tap water there are a lot of bad chemicals from us humans from pharmacy stuff. I always use natural spring water from water bottles I drink myself.
Besides that, your videos are awesome, thanks👍
I’ve been seeing people say you need to get a dimmer to go with a deep heat projector. Do you recommend it? Does it seem to project the right temps or do you change the distance between the basking spot and bulb? I’m about to get one and there’s not much out there on what people do to control temps
especially for leopard geckos! I am changing my Leo to bioactive and not quite sure how I’m going to handle the whole heating aspect!
hello elle! im trying to get the best possible background for my beardie! is ok to have a solid photo or the texture like yours? Thanks!
Either way! Zsasz likes to climb the background, but before this, I always had solid photos. As long as there's plenty of enrichment in the tank, go with whatever you like best! 😊
💜💜💜💜

why do you give silkworms only occasionally? i thought they were a good staple bug for them
I just adopted a 5month old bearded, I’ve had him for a month now. He didn’t come with uvb lights so I’m hoping this isn’t something serious but occasionally I’ll walk past and it seems as if he’s looking at me and moving side to side weirdly. Should I be worried?
I was Going to get bearded dragon as a starter pet. Is that a good idea?
hey i’m getting a baby bearded dragon soon could anyone give me any tips ?
Is it normal for my beardie to only want green veggies?? He’s only eating the greens now, not the carrots or yellow squash I’ve been giving him.
I recently just got a beardie she’s still a baby do I need to leave her heat lamp on over night?
I also have a 40gallon tank for her so I’m just curious what’s best for her
Does anyone have a more affordable option for a UVB tester? I have tried the cards but they do not seem reliable.
Unfortunately that's the only one that I currently know of. It took me several years to finally get one because of the price 😅
@EllesReptiles thank you for replying. I absolutely love your videos, and thank you for all of your insight. 🥰
Will there be a ball python version of this video?
You're the second person to ask for this. Definitely! I've already got the next couple videos filmed, so it'll be a few weeks, but I'll definitely get it done! 😊
@@ellesreptiles awesome! I love your videos they’re so informative!
Came for the corn snake tutorial and left with a reptile guide.. beautiful videos, soul, and I hate to see you had a stroke. My daughter’s mom has very severe thyroid problems and that could cause her to have a stroke as well. But anyways, keep up the amazing work and I hope you continue to improve and thrive. 🫶🏻
Awww thank you so much! You are too kind 🥹💜
