Rehoming bearded dragons
« on: January 13, 2020, 12:12:10 am »
My kids both have a bearded dragon, complete with their own enclosures and heat lamps etc. We have one about a year and the other about 6 months. We need to get them rehomed asap. Anyone who wants one or both  with their separate enclosures (they cant be keep together because they fight), feel free to pm me. They are free of charge because they must go asap as our house is like a zoo now with a dog, 2 cats, goldfish,  crayfish, musk turtles and bearded dragons. Cheers.

One of them is about 10" long and his enclosure is about 4' long by about 1.5' high x about 1.5' deep. The other one is slightly smaller at about 8" and his enclosure is slightly smaller too. Both come with heat and UV lights. There is very little care involved with them although their food is quite specialised, it has to be moving or they wont eat it. Chuck them in the bath once a week too which helps their skin which can become quite dry and itchy for them. I'd keep them myself but as I said, I feel like our gaf is a zoo.

Theyd freeze octy. I may be a lot of things but cruel is not one of them. I might email the zoo though, maybe theyd take them as you say.

Although a good plan in theory I dont think I'd get past the entrance with two lizards poking out of my pocket.  In fact they may report me for putting the lizards in danger.

They're popular enough as pets. My older not so young lad had one when he was a much younger not so young lad, lasted about 12 years. I'd say you'd find buyers on Donedeal handy enough or you could give them to one of the specialist pet stores, they might even give you something for them, e.g.

Reptile Haven, Fishamble St (01) 670 4001
Kinsealy Pet Store (01) 816 9900

Horse try the bird Jungle on Keeper Road (453 4919), I gave him some birds a while back and he gave me a nice bed and grub for the hound. 
He who fears he will suffer, already suffers because he fears.
