    Albino Dragons - can they survive?

    I’d like to know what people think about the potential/viability of Albino Bearded Dragons to survive to adulthood and feed independently.
    From my experience, and from what I’ve read here on APS, they have been bred for several years now, by a few different people, however none have fed independently and they haven’t lasted more than a few months.

    None have survived as far as I know.
    Splitmore was raising some hatchies for BigGuy a few years ago, maybe either of those members could fill you in.

    They do exist, I`ve seen them in the flesh! Some one on here has them, hopefully he will be generous enough to answer your questions.

    Bob Whitney commented in a thread during January that there are several adult albino bearded dragons floating around in different collections. He also has moved his entire line almost to someone else so best to leave him alone and not shoot him a million pm's.

    Yes, albino dragons do survive.

    Centrals and Pygmy

    same way Igs etc do. they require natural sun as our tub, and mvb form can play with there eyes with Uvc etc.
    too many crickets!!

    Weak rubbish from what i have heard, but i guess if breeding potentially harmful mutations into lizards just to have a freak is your thing, then go for it. i wonder if you can get scaleless albinos? how stuffed up would they be They would probably be quite trendy i guess.

    I know the babies exist. are you referring to adults?
    Have you seen a healthy adult albino bearded dragon that doesn't need to be assist fed?
