<\/span><\/h3>\nThe temperament of a bearded dragon can vary from individual to individual. Some may be more docile and enjoy being handled, while others may be more defensive or skittish. If possible, spend some time interacting with the dragon you are interested in to get a feel for their personality. A calm and friendly dragon is typically easier to handle and interact with, especially for first-time owners. However, with proper socialization and handling, most dragons can become comfortable and trusting companions over time.<\/p>\n
By providing a suitable habitat, a balanced diet, proper handling, regular vet check-ups, and a well-thought-out selection, you can ensure that your bearded dragon thrives as a happy and healthy pet. Remember, every bearded dragon is unique, so take the time to understand their individual needs and preferences. With proper care and attention, your bearded dragon will bring you joy and companionship for many years to come.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
