Hey going to be getting a Bearded Dragon at the weekend, If poss I was going to get 2 as the girlfriend wants one as well.

Is a 4ft x 2ft x 2ft or 48x24x24 vivarium big enough for 2 adult Beardies?

Also the other problem I thought of is, Is it actualy possible to know the

s*x of a Baby Beardie anyway

Thanks

  1. its not really a good idea to hosue fully grown breadies together they might be ok as babies but if they start fighting split them up.

    that size isnt big enough for 2 adults 1 adult has a minimum size of 4x1.5x1 so a 4x2x2 would be too small. u need at very least a 6x2x1 for 2 adults but the bigger the better also remember that the UV light needs to be within 6 inches of the basking spot(some advice since some people who have tall changes tend to forget)

    as for sexing babies it difficult to say the least


  2. a trio of 1 male 2 females ( NEVER 2 MALES , 2 females are totally ok ) can have a thriving breeding group in a a cage that size. reliably sexing young bearded dragons is really tricky ( i suck at it unless there half grown) your best bet is somewhat older animals and getting from a reputable breeder. adult are EASY to s*x

    p.s.(to spend day) bearded dragons are HIGHLY SOCIAL reptiles building a cast structure in there group like wolfs or lions with dominant and subordinates members. where do you think all the head bobbing full bearding, leg waving and push ups come from.  they are not  4 different ways of showing agitation or anything. they are a form of social communication.  people who keep bearded dragons alone are denying themselves and their animals the the joy of all the FULL range of behavior bearded dragons exhibit when kept properly.
