NO SAND!!!!
I have one ATM. His name is DotA.
Get him a carpet, and Bearded Dragons are Desert Reptiles, So red sand?
Duh. Or orange/ normal sand.
But you need to take note of.
When they eat, bearded dragons also use the bathroom in the sand, and when they eat, they catch crickets, and then the crickets can get attached to the feces that is on the sand or left over from what you picked up and they can ingest it and that can cause serious health problems...
A tree branch, water or sand
In hot desert environments with insects, vegetable matter and sand.

If he's on sand that could be the reason, if he's not on sand take him to a vet
to keep themselves warm at night. so you need to put a lot of that sand with calcium in it
bearded dragons come from Australia. they are used to the dessert so that means they need it hot and dry to be happy. If u are looking for a substrate I suggest reptile carpet it is safer than sand.
no calcium sand is much bigger grains than normals sand and it is easy for a reptile to digest it also retains heat
No, they need sand. Baby and juvenile dragons should have a reptile carpet with no loose strings, or they can loose their nails. - erin_animal_lover
It depends on the size of the cage, although normally the amount of sand should be a few cenimeters thick.
Yes most likely. if you left worms or crikits in there it might of gone to eat them and missed and accidentaly ate sand. :( Or if it was laying on it's back when you found him he might of accidentaly buried himself in sand while struggling to turn over an swalloed some sand and suffocated:(
Its pretty simple you have to feed them everyday have to give them lettuce and you can give them crickets ,meal worm's.You need to put new sand in their cage every 2 months.
I put sand inmy bearded dragon's cage when they were around 6 months old, however, the type of sand I put in is man made and has calcium and nutrients in it and is completely safe for them to eat.
