It's not cheap owning an exotic pet but instead of watching for a Bearded Dragon sale for all the supplies you need, you can practice the art of doing it yourself. Two of the biggest expenses you're going to encounter when you own one or more of these beautiful creatures are housing and food supply. Your pet's housing should be large enough to give him room to run.
You can build your own cage for the dragon by using material you find or purchase. Be sure that the material is free from any kind of residue that will adversely affect your pet. Design the enclosure to be suitable for the dragon's needs-one that mimics his natural habitat.
Be sure that you don't make all four sides of the enclosure glass. This will leave your dragon feeling exposed, like he has no place he can run to when he needs to feel safe. Inside this enclosure, your pet is going to need a shelter box. Some of the material you can use for that are wood or rocks.
Instead of waiting for a Bearded Dragon sale on the food you need for your dragon, consider making your own food supply. Dragons need a wide variety of food-everything from insects to fruits to vegetables.
If you're not 100% sure what's best to feed your dragon, don't just play it by ear. There are certain plants and insects that are deadly for your pet so make sure you know exactly what to give him.
