"Beginners guide to a happy, healthy pet Bearded dragon"
All the
basics you need for proper pet Bearded dragon care

Dear New or Basic Bearded Dragon Keeper,
Being part of animal
health and a successful breeder of various reptiles,
including the newest craze, namely the Bearded dragon (Pogona
vitticeps), I
got confronted with all sorts of questions and problems
relating the care of these animals (bearded dragon care). More and more new
keepers started to contact me for help. Initially I decided
to compile a very very basic set of instructions to give to
my clients, as a bonus, to help them and their new pet. By
that time the demand was low, but as the word on these
wonderful lizards got out more and more people started to
enquire about proper care for their pet Bearded dragon. In
the meantime I also got a lot of positive feedback,
recommendations and even more questions from current
clients. This was where The Basic Bearded Dragon Manual
was born!
Today Bearded dragons are very popular
alternative pets. Unfortunately a lot of these animals still
suffers because they are kept incorrectly, mostly as a
result of ignorance! You've probably been directed to this
page either because someone wanted you to see it, or because
you were inspired to be the best Bearded dragon caretaker
you can be (and not to be ignorant!). This is exactly why I
started this website, not only make it easy to get all the
info you need over to you, but also to make it easy for
inspiring people like you to find us.
The
newest edition of The
Basic Bearded Dragon Manual is not only the combined
result of my own experience with these wonderful lizards,
but as mentioned earlier, also from years of feedback from my current
Bearded dragon and Bearded Dragon Manual clients. The eBook
also contains and compare information and opinions from
various sources of officially published and non-published
literature. I had the great task of
taking this vast amount of information and make
it informative and up-to-the-point for the new or basic pet
Bearded dragon keeper. |

The Basic
Bearded Dragon Manual will help prevent unnecessary,
sometimes incurable & preventable diseases
"The
things your reptile veterinarian wants you to know..."
I get to recommend this eBook to a lot of
keepers after the tragic loss of their beloved pet Bearded
dragon.
It is said that about
80%
of medical related problems of reptiles are the result of bad
husbandry. We have seen them
all, from incorrect husbandry (i.e. lighting,
supplementation, temperature, veggies and unnecessary
exposure) right through to really diseased individuals. It
is true, most of the problems were due to incorrect keeping.
Things that seems to be overrepresented includes Bearded
dragon lighting and Bearded dragon supplementation. I've been on call from my websites and literally helped hundreds
of keepers, both experienced and novice in the right
direction with regards to Bearded dragon care.
A big problem I have encountered over the
few years
was the fact that it is not always the keeper not knowing
how to maintain their Beardies, but keepers being told
nonsense from the start! Bearded dragons are extremely hardy
and loyal pets, but they can only handle so much.
Unfortunately the reptile
vet only get to see these problems weeks to months
later when it is too late to reverse the symptoms. A lot of
these animals are incurable and they die! I've written this eBook specifically with these preventable problems and other
frequently asked questions in mind. By reading this book you
will not only know exactly how to care for your beloved pet,
but you will also know how to prevent problems only seen a
long way down the line. Health related questions that
are answered includes the following:
-
My Bearded dragon is not
eating, what can I do?
-
My Bearded dragon feels
constipated, is there something I can give him?
-
We have a baby in the
house, what should or should we not be doing with our Bearded
dragon?
-
How can I get my baby
Beardie to eat his veggies?
-
How can I prevent my Beardie from getting sick?
-
What should I be looking
for in a sick Bearded dragon?
-
Where can I find a reptile
/ Beardie friendly vet (reptile vet)?
"... and the pet shops
never tell you"

"I recently received your basic manual,
which I have found to be very informative. It's so nice
to find a South African Bearded dragon book on the subject
of bearded dragon care!!"
- Kat, Free State, South Africa

-------------------------
"I think the basic bearded
dragon manual is one of the best books I have seen for
its price. Like the Bearded dragon Biology section! Regards."
- Richard, Canada
-------------------------
"WOW! I’m impressed, thanks for the fast delivery! I

much!"
- Elrien, GT South Africa
-------------------------
"Excellent and very
informative Bearded dragon info. Thank you."
- Susan, GT South Africa
-------------------------
"Now I know how to get
Draco to eat his veggies! Your tips in the Bearded
dragon food section really helped."
- Peter, GT South Africa
-------------------------
"When I
bought my first Beardie from our local
reptile-friendly pet shop, the owner never told me
about proper Bearded dragon housing, Bearded dragon lighting, feeding and
Bearded dragon supplementation. I suppose it was all about the
money. At first Spike was okay, he/she was eating
all the pet shop food I gave him/her. Later he
started to eat less and less, then every second day
or so. He also became more sleepy as time goes by.
At first I thought all these things were normal, but
after he started to loose some weight I called the
pet shop owner again. He said that the Beardie was
sick and that I should take it to a reptile vet.
After
some tests the vet diagnosed metabolic bone disease
with secondary sand impaction - something that
was totally preventable with the correct husbandry
- and he said that
because of the severity the chances of a recovery
was "grave". A few days after the diagnosis Spike
died in the animal hospital, in spite of the best
possible care and treatment.
I was
not going to make the same mistake again so before I
bought Drake I did some proper research. I stumbled
upon The Basic Bearded Dragon Manual and I must say
that it was very informative. Everything I should
have known from the start!
Thank
you"

If you managed to
scroll down to this point you are certainly interested in
being the best Bearded dragon care taker you can ever be. But you're probably concerned
about what you'll be getting from this deal? Before you
close this page think about the following two questions:
What
is a resource like this worth to YOU?
Yes, if you had to
collect / remember all these information yourself, how much
time and effort would it be? The Basic Bearded Dragon Manual
is your one-stop solution, your all-in-one manuscript. This
all in one fast downloadable,
easy readable document. Remember this manual
is not only the result of years of research, but also
years of personal experience and mistakes. You
can have all this Bearded dragon info in under 5 minutes!
Can
I save money with this eBook?
Think about it.
Of course you can save money. Think about the price of one
vet bill - one unnecessary visit to your reptile vet is more expensive than this
eBook. I'm not saying that you shouldn't take your Beardie to be checked out, but I can tell you how to
avoid most preventable Bearded dragon diseases.
Also think about the costs
of replacing a beloved Beardie due to preventable death
(not to mention the emotional costs).
If you are
interested, good for you! Remember,
under five minutes!! |
