Looking through all the Bearded Dragon cages for sale can give anyone a headache. The choices seem endless. Does it really matter which one you get? Can’t you just pick one and take it home? No, because not all cages are the best habitat for your sweet little pet. Many people assume that Beardies aren’t tree climbers but they are. They do enjoy running along the ground but like higher perches too. The problem isn’t when they climb, it’s when they land. A wrong fall can injure your Beardie so take care that you don’t give him a perch that’s too tall for him.

What you should remember when you’re searching through the selection of Bearded Dragon cages is to go for one that gives your pet more horizontal room than vertical. This is vitally important if you’re bringing home an adult Beardie. You’re going to need a cage that’s large enough to give your Beardie a basking area and then an area where he can go to get away from the warmth and cool off.

Does this mean that all Bearded Dragon cages should be longer rather than taller? No, when you have little juvenile Beardies, it’s perfectly acceptable to keep them together and you can use a taller cage for that if you’d like to. Just understand that if you get a small cage, when your little Beardie grows, the cage will need to grow too. The type of cages you can get are ready made, four sided glass, custom built ones or you can even make your own if you’re good at building things.
