My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Tax Evasion!

This adorable little bearded dragon is just 2-3 months old and already full of curiosity and charm. While he may be small now, he still has a lot of growing to do and will become a much larger, impressive lizard as he matures. Bearded dragons are known for their calm, gentle personalities and can become wonderful, interactive companions when handled regularly and cared for properly.

Care & Setup:
Bearded dragons require a properly sized enclosure with specific heating and lighting to stay healthy. This includes:

A minimum 40 Gallon Enclosure (must provide proof)

A basking area (around 38-43°C / 100-110°F for babies)

A cooler side for temperature regulation

UVB lighting, which is essential for bone health and calcium absorption

Clean substrate, hiding spots, and climbing décor

They thrive on a consistent day/night light cycle and a clean, well-maintained habitat.

Feeding:
As a growing baby, his diet will be mostly:

Live insects (appropriately sized)

Multiple high volume daily feedings at this age.

A growing introduction to leafy greens and vegetables
All insects should be calcium-dusted, and fresh water should always be available. Proper nutrition early on is crucial for healthy growth.

Life Expectancy:
With proper care, bearded dragons can live 15 years or more, making them a long-term commitment.

Ideal Home:
This sweet baby would do best with an adopter who is ready to invest the time, setup, and ongoing care that reptiles require. Whether you're an experienced reptile owner or a dedicated first-timer who has done their research, this little guy is ready to grow up loved and well cared for.

If you're looking for a fascinating, rewarding companion and are ready for a long-term commitment, this baby bearded dragon could be the perfect match!
