Gonzo, the bearded dragon, Attacks

I'm annoying Gonzo through the glass.

I know that his carpet needs changing. We've got new carpet, and we plan on changing it out soon.

My wife is the one holding the camera. She's also on the phone, so you can hear her friend talking through it in the background.

UPDATE: Gonzo died of old age in 2009. We plan on getting another beardie once I have made a custom tank.

Is that the ZooMed repti carpet?? I want to get carpet for mine.

@tomsterst I don't remember which one it is, but reptile carpet is the standard flooring for a bearded dragon. Some people think that sand and such can be used, but that can cause digestive problems if accidentally swallowed. Reptile carpet or custom tile flooring is the way to go! :-)

how old is he?



[AbbydonKrafts]

@gitaard At the time, he was around 8 years old. Unfortunately, he is now deceased. He died of old age. We haven't gotten a replacement because I want to build a custom tank first. That way the new one would have an optimum environment.

I don't know why every one thinks this is harmful. It's only teasing if the dragon hasn't been fed in days and that finger is his hope of a meal, which is highly unlikely... Lizards need stimulation and a break from the boredom of every day caged life. Nothing wrong with mentally stimulating him.

He's not atacking, he just thinks that your finger is something that he can EAT becuase your waving it right infront of him!

[MrMeowingtonz]

you can get sand that is edible for beaded dragons and it wont cause digestive problems if digested

[AbbydonKrafts]

@zion9170 He died of old age. Pets are supposed to be played with, and I never teased him excessively.

@AbbydonKrafts

I dont believe he died cause the age,

Stress maked him sort of sick, cause u need to reach him from upside,

The cage isnt deep enough as i can see from this vid.
