  1. no sorry ps do local vets sell bearded dragons


  2. No, once a beardie looses their tail, it will never grow back. If the wound is cared for properly, it will close up, and heal, but that's it. Sometimes, scales will eventually regrow over the area too, but the part that was bitten off will not regrow, she will always have a "stumpy" tail.

    If the wound is still opened, you need to clean it up. NEVER use peroxide on a lizard, that kills the healthy tissue along with the bad. Use diluted Betadine or Nolvasan, then put some Neosporin ointment on it, do NOT use the kind with pain relievers, that is toxic. Use the original kind. You should do that once or twice a day until it is healed up. If it shows signs of infection, you need to find a qualified herp vet to look at it, as she may need antibiotics. You can find a vet here if you ever need one

  3. No i dont think so sorry

  4. no

  5. Im sorry no...unlike lizards and newts the bearded dragon is almost more closly related to alligators anbd crocs than the lizard or newts...therefore crocs and alligators cant grow their tails back so there fore the sad truth is no

  6. No they will never grow back which is usually why beardies with nipped tails sell for less.

  7. I have a bearded dragon too! But it never lost its tail. So I don't know.  : /
