Bearded Dragons

Buy Bearded Dragons Online. Central bearded dragons vary widely in color, including brown, reddish-brown, red, yellow, white, and orange. They are capable of undergoing moderate changes in coloration, and scales along both sides of the throat, neck, and head form a row of narrow spines that runs down each side of the body to the tail. Males typically have a darker “beard” than females, and during mating season and courtship, it will typically darken to near-black. Bearded dragons, like most agamid lizards, have strong legs which enable them to lift their body completely off the ground while they move. This is done to reduce the heat taken in from the ground, as well as to increase the airflow over the belly to cool itself further. Males can be distinguished from females by a wider cloacal opening, a wider base of the tail, a larger head and beard, and the possession of hemipenes. Males also have more pronounced femoral pores than females (these can be seen as waxy bumps on the underside of the back legs).
