Dr. Joel was very helpful with educating me on how to take better care of Reef, my bearded dragon. There’s so much contradictory information all over the internet, I’ve never known what was optimal for my guy. I got a lot of answers today and hopeful that Reef will come through this little tale and beard scare thanks to Dr. Joel’s instructions.
