Question
I was in the pet store today buyin some calicum dust for my baby bearded dragon. I stoped to look at the other babys and i noticed there was some that had more spikes on them and they were in diffrant places on the body then my baby has. I was wornderin why that is?? is somethin wrong w my baby??

Answer
Hello, I could be a bit more helpful if you provide a picture of your baby. Your baby should be fine, the number of spikes and places where they might be will not effect your bearded dragon in any way. Some after birth get a few bitten off from siblings.

Expertise

I can answer every question towards the bearded dragon except for questions that deal with sickness and disease. I can answer questions on heating and UV rays, the questions pertaining to food, habitat, bedding, breeding, egg/hatchling care, nature, and attitude are my best. Last, I cannot help you with at home sickness meds, always find a vet within your area. I can answer questions regarding body language and movement. I will try to help you to the best of my ability.

Experience

I have owned 7 bearded dragons. For 6 straight years, I have had my first male and female that i have been raising. Raising my male and female have been such an experience! Breeding them was also a great experience! After my male passed, it made me realize that raising them was one of the best experiences of my life and still currently is.

Education/Credentials
I have no educational cedentials, but i have constant history of bearded dragon research.
