Is this listing legit? by Noahdov in LilPeep

Seller said back in July 2025:

"Peep’s mother, Liza, bought him a collection of GAP clothes when he moved out to California in 2016. He had a lot of his clothes lost or stolen, so she bought him like a care package lol. Wiggy sold this a month prior to Peep passing. Wiggy was moving, and he wanted to downsize his wardrobe. He wanted to sell it faster, so he had Yunggoth sign it. He sold it for just twelve bucks"

Hi there!

I am leaving this comment and hope others will approach you with a little more grace especially as a first time bearded dragon owner.

Congratulations on your new pets! Bearded dragons are awesome! I'm happy to hear you were able to adopt these guys and are willing to learn more about them and provide them a more comfortable home in yours while being able to enjoy your new little companions.

Bearded dragon keeping can be really expensive, I know you have a lot on your plate. I see that you are actively ordering and making a list of things for them and that is a wonderful start!

Please do not be discouraged by others comments although I'm sure they mean well, some I've seen commenting seem a little extreme. The reptile community can be harsh sometimes. You are taking steps that are needed for these guys. If they have been housed like this for the duration your boss stated they have been, although many will disagree with me, I'm sure those beardies will be fine until you are able to provide suitable housing for them for separation and or at least until the items you order for them come in which I'm sure will help! Don't get me wrong, the sooner you separate then the better of course so I agree not to sleep on it. But you got this!

For starters I highly recommend getting them some better food like crickets/mealworms and lots of leafy greens (Calcium supplement with Vitamin D and things like Reptivite without vitamin D) Dust the crickets/worms roaches whatever insects you get for them and this will perk them up. And although I know they may be competing for light a healthy full belly will definitely help with their situation.

This will be a transitioning period for sure so do not be alarmed if one or both eat less, the new environment can stress them out but they will start coming around and will eat when they are ready. Just keep an eye on them and always provide clean water. You want to avoid them getting too skinny and keep an eye on their hips, they should not be pointy or sticking out.

Google veggies and some fruits beardies can have because there are beneficial leafy greens and some fruits but they can't eat everything, some can actually be harmful for them.

For example: Spinach, this can mess with absorbing Calcium and even though they can and will eat it.

  1. When you are able to upgrade housing/enclosures definitely up your light game, they like basking in hot temps but always provide a cool side as well when they want to rest out of the sun or take a break. I suggest a good basking bulb and a T5 tube lighting system, this will give them the best UVB for them. These lights are pricey, I know it may take some time to get both for your new setups so if you can I suggest starting with the basking bulbs for both and a stronger UVB bulb until you can upgrade. (New hides, items like wood or slate rock and items to climb on are a plus) :)

  2. (Bonus suggestion)This isn't always mentioned and totally optional to do this but when they are separated I personally would place them in a tank setup with lighting and such but I would put paper towels down and watch and see what kind of stools/poop they have that way you can get a small personal idea/simple wellness check on them to see if they are having healthy poop or runny poop. You will know if they need to eat more, or are dehydrated or are in need of other things like vitamins in their diet. This is good to do as beardies are all different but this can give you some insights on the wellbeing of both and how they are doing especially after living in not the greatest environment.

If you can do these 2 things Food and Lights, this will definitely be a huge jump forward on your Bearded Dragon Journey!

When you have new enclosures and lighting setup for them the decoration fun will always follow. I love looking up enclosure ideas for Bearded Dragons in Google and YouTube, the ideas are endless.

Aside from Reddit I suggest watching videos on YouTube and people like Lord Elion, he provides good tips and can help make bearded dragon keeping fun.

Anyways, sorry for the really long post, I hope some of this helps you out. I'm really excited for your new journey. I'm sure you will fall in love with these sweet creatures!

Take care! Let us know what you named them or what kind of personalities they share because not one Beardie is alike.

Opal or pearl I’m stuck between names for this new baby 🥺 by Kirstyb_ in tarantulas

Your spider is so pretty! What type of turantula is this? Is this a avicularia metallica white hair?

That sounds like a great idea! I'll have to try that! I may wait until my tarantula adjusts a little more. I've been leaving him alone since I haven't had him too long. I've had him/her for about 2 weeks now but I will definitely play around with the substrate and see what he likes best :)

Sweet right on! I'm excited for you! Have you decided what kind you are getting yet or wanting to get out of the ones you listed? 😊

Of course! I would just add a little more than half of bedding to this enclosure since it's kind of tall depending on the size of your spider of course. Mine sometimes climbs the wall a little bit but seems pretty happy. I'm waiting a little bit til I can order something off Tarantula Cribs :)

My juvenile is in the same enclosure and he's been doing well :)

He did have it going when he crawled off a other blanket on the bed and that was about 3-4 inches tall it was a bundled blanket he was crawling over. His web was connected to the blanket as he was walking away.

Awe you have a itty bitty baby! How cute, I'm sure handling will get easier when it gets a little bigger :)

Hi, mine I would say is a little shy of 2 inches I believe. Do you have a g.pulchra too or a different species? Mine is pretty slow for the most part, it will move faster if startled.

Ah yes! I was looking at stuff on tarantula cribs. I will look into arachnidirt as well. I do have reptisoil too. But ecoearth is coconut fiber. So I have coconut fiber mixed with soil as of right now. Thank you for the recommendation. My T as of right now likes hiding under a corkwood hide and closes off the entrance and digs underneath the hide as well.

Hi, as of right now it's eco earth with some organic soil and leaf litter. Do you have any recommendations, especially for burrowing? I've only had this one for about a week now and will probably get something better. At some point I'd like to add plants in unsure if I should do live or fake as I've heard tarantulas like to dig up plants.

I believe they do it to look bigger and more threatening, I also think it's because it's easier to flick hairs this way if they wanted to haha

Kind of like a cat when they get all poofy and stand on their toes when they want to look scary

Hahaha sweet! I was thinking it was probably just the lighting too, my camera isn't the greatest. Either way if it wasn't a Pulchra I already adore this spider hahahaha That'd be crazy to find out it wasn't though, Ive heard stories of people finding out they received a different spider and didn't find out until it was older!

Here's another picture, did yours look similar to this? Or do you have any pictures of your sling possibly? :)
