Question
I have a juvenile bearded dragon & the area i live in is being hit with a hurricane , power will be lost  very soon and i cannot go the store for anything . Will my beardie be okay if hes without his lamp for a few days ?

Answer
Hello, sorry to hear that your in the hurricane area. Try to keep him as warm as possible. Make sure you have food that you have already prepared for him ready. He will need to stay warm the entire time. Try to keep the room temp that he is in high. Shut your vents, keep the door closed, and windows closed to keep the heat in. Good luck with your beardie and i hope everything goes ok for you during the storm.

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.
