Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We are looking for an experienced and educated bearded dragon owner to adopt Artemis (lovingly nicknamed "Artie"), an approximately 8 year old female bearded dragon. We believe she might be a citrus or be a citrus hypo. She was surrendered to us by a family in Columbia MO who could no longer care for her or give her the attention she needs.
Artemis requires an adequate enclosure of a 40 gallon breeder tank at LEAST, or ideally an enclosure with 55 gallons or more, with strong UVB lighting (regular light bulbs do not contain UVB light), a basking spot with undertank heater, and a cool side to the enclosure. She has to have fresh water daily treated with Repti-Safe or equivalent to remove chlorine and other heavy metals from the water, as well as lots of fresh greens and other fruits and veggies that HAVE to be replaced DAILY. She also has to have a regular weekly source of insects such as dubia cockroaches (preferred) or crickets, dusted with reptile vitamins. She also enjoys and will eat Fluker's Bearded Dragon Diet (red pellets). Also required are climbing limbs in her enclosure.
She also needs regular "out of cage" exercise time, and we highly recommend a good bearded dragon leash for ease of mobility while keeping it safe, and weekly baths in warm repti-safe treated water.
If you would like to adopt Artemis the bearded dragon, please fill out the adoption application located on our website here:

Artemis' adoption fee is $75 and she is located in Clinton,Missouri. If you cannot provide a loving forever home for Artemis, please help us to care for her and other bearded dragons we rescue by donating an item to them off of our Amazon wishlist for our reptiles at http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1QK1IGLMSJ6PC , including bearded dragons! They are in need of heat lamps, bearded dragon food, repti-safe or equivalent for their water, or anything else on our reptile wishlist. It will be sent directly to us, and will be put directly towards the care of this or other reptiles in the future we may rescue! Thank you!
