RE: An Urgent Message To All Bearded Dragon Enthusiasts!
Dear Bearded Dragon Lover,
Did you choose a bearded dragon over a cat or a dog, thinking it would be easier to handle?
Are you intending to buy a bearded dragon because it seems like an easy pet to take care off?
Guess what...
You Can’t Be Further From The Truth!
I’ll be the
first to admit that I love these bearded dragons, or beardies as I like
to call them. I have kept and bred them for over 10 years, which makes
me one of the most recognised authorities when it comes to these little
reptiles.
But sadly, most
people don’t have the same level of knowledge as experts. They buy a
bearded dragon from their local pet store and expect it to be as easy to
handle as a guppy or terrapin. And they end up making all sorts of
terrible mistakes that can seriously harm the well-being of their
beloved bearded dragons!
To understand
why bearded dragons need such special attention and care, it is
important to know where they come from. All of the world’s bearded
dragons today originated from the wild, outback regions of Australia...
which means...
Bearded Dragons Are Literally
Desert Animals!
Desert Animals!
Now imagine
plucking a bearded dragon from its natural habitat in a dry desert,
where temperatures can sore well over 90 degrees in the day and drop to
under 45 degrees at night... and putting them...
In Your Garden!
Unless you live in the desert, I doubt
your garden has the same kind of conditions... which means you need to
“artificially create” an environment that is similar to a beardie’s
natural habitat.
It’s just not as simple as throwing them in a cage with some food!
Here’s where
all the problems come in. Most people have no idea how to do so... and
have no idea of the costs involved! Because of the equipment you have to
set up to “mimic” its natural habitat... rearing a bearded dragon can
be an expensive hobby!
Fortunately,
over my 10 years of rearing these bearded dragons, I have worked out a
series of shortcuts and tricks you can use in order to save yourself
some serious money... but still provide your bearded dragon with a
top-rate, comfortable environment!
You know, you can read countless Internet websites or visit a dozen forums about bearded dragons
and still don’t know how best to care for them... because most people
writing these websites (or visiting the forums) are just as clueless about what to do!
It’s like the blind leading the blind!
Why learn from
newbies when you can have the advantage of picking the brain of a
seasoned, bearded dragon owner and breeder... someone who actually does
it for a living?
Why worry about doing things right... when you can once-and-for-all, know the proper techniques to care for your bearded dragon?
Introducing my...
“Bearded Dragon
Secret Manual” ... The Manual Pet Shop Owners & Breeders Don’t Want YOU To Know About!
I’m serious
when I say pet shop owners and professional breeders don’t want you to
know about my secret manual. That’s because after reading what I have to
say about caring for bearded dragons...
|
You NEVER have to pay full price for bearded dragon pet food
|
|
You NEVER
have to pay full price for bearded dragon equipment, such as cages
& enclosures, linings and substrates (I show you how to make these yourself for a few dollars using commonly available household items.)

owners to sell them in their stores...
All Of Them Came Up With Some Lousy Excuse
About It Being “Too Much” For Pet Owners To Handle!
About It Being “Too Much” For Pet Owners To Handle!
That’s
why I decided to get this information straight to you over the
Internet... by presenting it in a form that can be instantly downloaded

you already own a bearded dragon... you can quickly check to see if
you’re doing the right thing.

You Can’t Find This Same Collection Of “Tips”
Elsewhere... Unless You Personally Know A Bearded Dragon Expert!
Elsewhere... Unless You Personally Know A Bearded Dragon Expert!
All the
tips, tricks and techniques that I write about in my Bearded Dragon
Secret Manual are not just based on theory. They are based on over a decade of experience as a bearded dragon owner and professional breeder.
This is what I do for a living, so I really know what I’m talking about.
Would you
rather have a handy guide that shows you exactly what to do in each
situation... or would you live each day in worry, wondering whether you
are doing the right thing for your bearded dragon?
My secret
manual is specially written for the home bearded dragon owner, so it’s
100% practical and doesn’t involved any sophisticated equipment or
knowledge.
To make it even easier for you, I’m going to throw in the following bonuses to make caring for your bearded dragon even more enjoyable:

($27 Value) That’s why I compiled all of the toughest and most “challenging” problems beardie owners will ask about their pets... and provide my full answers to them! Don’t worry, because I’m not your vet (trying to make money from expensive treatments or medicines)... or the pet shop that is trying to sell you a bearded dragon, I can afford to give you the honest answer to these questions...
|
| 2. Bearded Dragon Daily Feeding Guide (Worth $19) I created this guide for my own usage, which shows the exact percentage of each type of food you need to feed your adult, baby or hatchling bearded dragon. I also show the differences between the diet composition of an adult and baby beardie. Print out a copy of this guide (not available anywhere else) and paste it on your kitchen wall... so you can know just the exact portions of food to feed your bearded dragon.

How Much Is All This Worth To You?
Consider this –
The average lifespan of a healthy bearded dragon is 10 years. If you
already own one or consider owning one... you’ll need to spend the next
10 years of your life with it.
During those 10
years, you need to provide your beardie with a comfortable home as a
responsible pet owner. But we all know that it doesn’t come easy... or
cheap. Just buying and equipping a cage alone can potentially cost
hundreds of dollars.
Ask yourself, how much are you going to spend on...
|
Needless to say, it will not be cheap. But what if using my methods, you can save a whole lot of money on enclosures, cages, supplies and food by learning where expert breeders like myself source for them?
How much will having this knowledge alone save you?
How much will proper handling and care
of your bearded dragon save you in vet fees (which can run into
hundreds of dollars per visit) or heartache when your beloved bearded
dragon dies?
That’s why I’m on a mission to help as many bearded dragon owners as possible. You can download my entire “Bearded Dragon Secret Manual” for only $19 and read it immediately on a PC or MAC. You can even print it out and refer to it anytime you like.
That’s right. For less than the cost of one month’s worth of supplies and pet food, you can own a copy of my manual that will save you from trouble, frustration, worry... and that feeling of not knowing what to do.
Don’t you think it’s worth it?
110% Risk Free, Money Back Guarantee!
