Backwater is not a good site to order from, you're really playing your luck. They are what's called "drop shippers" you order from them and they order from a different supplier. Many people (including myself) have gotten dead animals, a totally different animal than what they ordered, and what I've seen, they don't pack very well. No heat packs and a little newspaper on top
First name Last name Then your lucky I just received mine on Tuesday and it was on the verge of death he was freezing cold and limp with his tongue hanging out my husband had to warm him up and help him breathe for about an hour before he was ok when I contacted back water they told me he was just dehydrated which makes no sense he had NO heating pack and there were holes stabbed into the box he was in and he was shipped to New York so it was cold and they didn’t consider that at all.
Lillian Beck underground reptiles they are very polite they keep you updated on everything regarding your order and will actually speak with you through phone call rather than email like back water
have you tried soaking it in worm water for a half hour to an hour in worm water in the bathtub or sink depending on how big it is. make sure the water is shallow and only reaches its shoulders so it can keep its head out of the water. I had a beardie that did the same thing once and soaking it made a world of difference. They will absorb water through their skin
I ended up removing his hide, as he was never in a deep sleep and I gave him a bath...which lead to a massive bowl movement...It still took a couple of weeks but he ended up snapping out of it.
Now I have had bearded dragons for a very long time he says... he doesn't even know the difference between an adult and a juvenile beardie... also if back water reptiles is so great then why did you have to hope it was alive? That should be a guaranty... right? Like wth get your head together boy -.-
There are many reputable breeders out there depending on what you are looking for. If you are looking for Bearded Dragons I know many that are very responsible. You get to pick the dragon you want, they are healthy and happy and are eating well before they are sent to you. The ship over night to make sure there is less stress on the animal and include warm or cold packs if the weather is not ideal for their health.
+XxOB3Y212xX I paid 100 for the male 80 for a female with a nipped tail. At www.backwaterreptile.com you can find them a little cheaper And 50 for shipping no mater how many you buy. If you get any let me know how it goes.
These reptiles being stuffed in a bag then put in a box seems kind of cruel. Why order reptiles ? Just wondering. There’s so many reptile shops where you can see that your reptile is healthy from the get go. I’ve heard so many bad things about this company and it’s just cruel to give people dead/sick reptiles and its cruel for the reptiles to endure this stress while being sick. I’d never give this place my money. Makes me sick.
The two females are NOT adults. They may be sub adults but if they are adults they are small and the first one really needs to be fattened up. The Male again is small for an adult though bigger than the females. I do hope you do not plan to house them together any of them. Also meal worms are BAD for bearded dragons. The exoskeleton is really hard to digest.
What would you rate backwater reptiles? Because I heard that some people got dead animals from there, and I want to know if it is safe to get a beardie from them.
+Purple Dinosaur my bearded dragons are fine but the Chameleons I got from them kept dying, and I got a skink from them with mites. so I wont buy from them again. I am going to try LLL Reptiles and Big Apple Pets.
+Purple Dinosaur dont know if you ordered from underground reptiles yet or not cause how late this is but i love underground reptiles i got female enchi ball python she is amazing
Which morph did you order? I'm thinking about ordering a red but I don't wanna pay extra if they are just going to send me a normal. Also are the leather back or normal? I can't tell in the video. Thanks
The Scientist Werewolf I just ordered a normal the female had a nipped tail and was cheaper for it. If you order a red make sure you get to see it first. If you spend a lot more then I did I would order from a better company like lll reptiles or big Apple reptiles
Hello, I was wondering if you have any ideas on how to get a bearded dragon to eat once it comes out of brumation... Mine seems to still be fasting, although the beast will bask, and he is aware of his surroundings. He has eaten very little in the past two weeks he has been awake... Any advice is greatly appreciated. I do have video on my channel if you want to see the lizard....
Never ever ever ever get reptiles from Petsmart. I had the most beautiful yellow beardie from there who died in 3 months because he was sick when we got him. If you must get a pet from a petstore, Jack's Aquarium. My Iguana from there was good health except a friction burn on his nose which healed right up. He lived 2 yrs until health problems put me in the hospital 3 weeks and a relative let him die of dehydration/malnutrition.
First 2 dragons have to be juvenile(under a year), or extremely under weight. Mealworms are absolutely horrible for dragons. " =very little protein, moisture & the chitlin is difficult for beardies to digest. There are much better bug protein items such as: crickets, dubia roaches, Butterworms waxworms hornworms, silkworms, Phoenix worms, etc. Also don't forget the salads*= myriad of veggies, greens and fruits ..... Things you don't learn from Petco.
Krazy Skunk that pink paper that back water reptiles sent with my order is required by the state of Florida. I know that reptiles don't get rabies but it is still required.
Raymond Herndon LMFAO oh ok that makes more sense, laws that come with exotics cannot be strict enough but for a sec I was like "really people come on" but if the state requires it that makes more sense 🤗
Guys he gets it! And honestly, if that was me and I saw all those comments, I would feel guilty even though he is very nice to them, and shouldn't at all feel guilty.
i ordered a veild chameleon from petco and it was DEAD! unbeleavible! i ordered a panther chameleon from back water it was what i ordered and it was pretty! theyre a greate site
