Bearded dragons typically live for 10-15 years in captivity. Adults can reach lengths of 16 to 24 inches from head to tail.

They are omnivores. Their diet consists of insects (like crickets and dubia roaches) and a variety of vegetables (like collard greens, mustard greens, and squash).

Native to the deserts and woodlands of Australia, they are semi-arboreal, enjoying both climbing and basking on the ground.

Known for their calm and docile nature, bearded dragons are one of the most popular reptile pets. They are generally friendly and can be handled regularly.
