Bearded Dragon Red Mix (Pogona vitticeps) – High-Voltage Ruby Tones and Dynamic Patterns

Fire up your reptile collection with the Red Mix Bearded Dragon, a striking blend of top-tier red genetic lines. Known for displaying rich crimson, coral, strawberry, and fiery brick-red pigments, this high-contrast mix brings an intense, glowing aesthetic to the iconic, friendly dragon profile.

Key Features

• Fiery Red Coloration: Features vibrant shades of ruby red, deep terracotta, and warm orange across the back, head, and beard that intensify with clarity as the dragon matures.

• Dynamic Pattern Blends: Showcases a unique mixture of classic diamond, bar, or subtle side-striping patterns, ensuring every individual dragon has a distinct, eye-catching look.

• Docile & Highly Engaging: Inherits the famous gentle and inquisitive temperament of Pogona vitticeps. They adapt quickly to handling and love exploring their surroundings or lounging on their owner's shoulder.

• Manageable Adult Size: Reaches a sturdy adult length of 18 to 24 inches (including tail), making them robust and comfortable to handle for keepers of all experience levels.

• Omnivorous Diet: Easily maintained on a balanced diet of live feeder insects (dubia roaches, crickets, hornworms) and daily fresh leafy salads (collard greens, mustard greens, squash, and bell peppers).

Essential Care & Enclosure Needs

To keep your Red Mix Bearded Dragon healthy, active, and displaying peak coloration, provide a properly calibrated desert habitat:

• Spacious Housing: Adults require a minimum enclosure size of 4x2x2 feet (120 gallons) to provide sufficient space for exercise, climbing, and thermal regulation.

• Arid Thermal Gradient: Provide a focused basking spot of 100°F–105°F (38°C–40°C) for adults (up to 110°F/43°C for juveniles) alongside a cooler retreat around 75°F–85°F (24°C–29°C).

• Essential High-Output UVB: A linear T5 HO 10.0 or 12% Desert UVB tube light running parallel to the basking lamp is mandatory for calcium absorption, strong bone structure, and overall vitality.

• Low Humidity: Maintain dry ambient humidity levels between 30% and 40% with proper ventilation to ensure optimal respiratory health.
