1 Year Update on Stan, The Old & Angry Bearded Dragon!
Vložit
- čas přidán 30. 04. 2020
- Stan is an 11 year old neglected bearded dragon I got a while ago. He came into us after living on calcium sand with minimal lighting and a diet of bearded dragon pellets for a decade. Since then, he appears frequently behind me in videos, and has a lot of interesting personality traits from his seemingly schizophrenic behaviors and odd aggression at nothing. He refused to eat anything coming in, his legs were in terrible shape, and overall wasn't in the best of condition. Today, I go over his time with us and how he's improved, adapted and changed, along with what I've learned about Gruncle Stan!

Good night
Would you recommend making hides out of the excavator clay for a leopard gecko? We’ve had a gecko for about a month and trying to learn.
stan is my king i wanna give him a smoooch
Hey guys can you please comment how long to keep it on for. I'm getting a bearded dragon tommorow how long do you keep the basking light on and uvb light on.
Its probably to stimulate himself. However much they loved Stan they probably didn't give him much stimulation if the just gave him pellets and not much else.
Damn idk if I like Stan or Rosie more. While Rosie is an angry grandma turned sweetie, Stan is the ultimate joyless grandpa who refuses to have a wholesome redemption arc
Hey he has joy known as tomato
Sour old man likes sour food
What animal is rosie
@@myzoo2856 boa constrictor :)
@My zoo Rosie is the boa constrictor.
Stan is the equivalent to Jenna Marble’s dog Marble. Not really sure where he is, old, and doesn’t really care about anything.
And is occasionally angry
No one knows if he actually died on the spot while standing still.. or buffering
Haley Dougan it’s funny he randomly barks at their light set up sometimes lol
Jack Douglass's dogs are better
John Wick okay John Wick, we know you're mad about your dog get over it man
Plot twist, Stan is actually 2 years old and has a whole life ahead of him.
Plot twist twist, Stan has a Titan power and will outlive us all. In the discarded ashes of earth, Stan will reign as King from the Old World
HailtotheKiin wait, but those guys died extra fast...
jimothy the people before had him for 10 years

I hope
Stan is such a grandpa, we stan.

If Rosie is the kind old lady that gives children extra candies on Halloween, Stan is the grumpy old dude who threatens to call the police on them for being on his property.
nah
He is just in the living room getting drunk with tomato slices
Plot twist: Stan is actually responsible for the disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle since he is an inter dimensional being.
Stan is fighting enemies our feeble minds cannot understand. Hence why he bobs and waves at the same time 🧐
We are absolute idiots for even questioning him
Not quite the use of "Hence." You don't need the "why," it's a little redundant. An ideal phrase would be "Hence the bobbing..."
Jess Brooks thanks I guess 🤨
Jess Brooks No one cares
He's the first of the new gods🙏
I absolutely love how it went from “I’m never going to have a bearded dragon” to “this is Stan, my bearded dragon, he’s my favorite reptile”
Character development
Was just thinking this
Isn't that how it always works??? Like dads who say they hate cats and don't want one, but then you catch them cuddling together every night and wearing clothes with each other's faces. 😂
Dad: I do not want a dog.
Dad and the dog:
Thank you for referring to him as "Gruncle Stan" 😂
A Peddie when did he say that
@@m.j.7703 in the description
@@m.j.7703 I believe it's his full name. Also, Alex says it at 20:15 in the video.
I east waiting for it
I need someone to just do a zoomed compilation of Stan the man in the background. We need to appreciate the grump more!
Oh yes! And to the Mortal Kombat theme!
Stan can see multi-dimensional beings and he's fending off spirits and that's why he bob's his head
He can see your icon, that's why he's mad
Yes that must be the answee
Especially the triangle one eyed
Hes the reason why the planet hasn't ended yet
I love how pessimistically optimistic you are
He's such a mood lol
I am SO glad you kept Stan. He is my favorite of all your animals too!
HOW IS THIS POSTED 5 DAYS AGO!?!?
@@lorenahurtadoval4237 really though, I am so confused?
Don’t question it Just except it they broke time
5 days agooo

Maybe stan can see ghosts...

My mom saw you and asked "is it the lizard boy again?" hahshshbs
You should also watch Snake Discovery lol I get is that the Snake Couple again?

stan’s the old codger-y grandpa that you somehow managed to spend most of your time with at family reunions despite being like 98% sure he only tolerates you at most
My beardie has been alive for 16 years almost 17 now!
Good Job at keeping him healthy and alive! keep it up :-D
How long do they live? O-o I was given a bearded from my sisters friend since he couldn't keep her anymore but she still is a baby.

You made Stan a very happy little man. I'm pretty sure his posturing shows his general enjoyment of life. After a totally boring ten years of life, he has it all now. And he's no longer in pain- or not nearly as much
Anyone else uncomfortable with him letting the roaches roam on the table
There's a video, I think the one with the baby beardies, where a roach escapes and you can see it run up his shirt lmao
I always love seeing Stan angrily bobbing in the background of your videos
One word. Homestuck.
Well if you ate bland cardboard like food your entire life, you'd probably love some lovely acidic tomatoes too.

Stan is so cute I’m glad he survived
He bobs then he waves and then bobs again, Stan must be a switch LOL
I adopted a two-year old bearded dragon six years ago. At the time, he was nearly obese. He had been living on a heat rock, which burned him slightly and which thankfully broke the day I got him. Today I am glad to say he is eight years old and still going strong. He's definitely a little skinny, but he IS eight so like, I guess that's okay. He still is quite active, and has the strongest feeding response I've ever seen on a bearded dragon. I am proud to say that he does NOT have MBD, and he eats a varied diet of collard greens, romaine lettuce, radicchio, and some carrots all topped with canned crickets because he can't hunt worth a darn. He was almost too lazy to hunt the HORNWORMS we gave him once, which were largely incapable of traversing terrain in general. I am also proud to say his pores are clear, which they most definitely were NOT when I first got him. He loves basking, climbing around his cage at odd hours, and pooping on couches. He's a good old boy, and I love him.
:)
I need a shirt with a drawing of Stan with a text saying "We Stan"
After doing 1 month of research I got a baby bearded dragon. I named him Nemo.
You probably shouldn't be outside getting dragons in store right now..
*SOCIAL DISTANCING*
i got one a couple weeks ago and i feel bad because i cant come up with a perfect name for her
@Abigail I usually go with the first thing that comes to mine I got my beardies a month ago and the one thing that came was harold and kumar and that's their name now.
Mine is a gold colored leather back named Paarthernax. He's really lazy
Abigail Lee i love flower/old timey pet names like marigold or gertrude bc it is so funny esp when an animal is derpy. I love the site behindthename for naming needs. Hope she gets a name soon maybe you can even throw her a little nameday party!
His eyes look like solar eclipses 🤩

Similar to cats, he is clearly interacting with the inter-dimensional beings. So cat morph Stan.
Thanks for sharing the update! He is a cool animal and I loved the ending!!
Stan is so adorable and I’m glad you kept him! My rescue Old Gregg also head bobs for no reason. I’ll take him out into the living room where there aren’t any other animals, and he’ll head bob in multiple directions. I cannot figure out what he’s seeing. So funny!
Australia has the most fascinating creatures
yoo they did surgery on a kim
True
What about New Zealand?
The DEAD walk among us
I feel Stan is the bearded dragon equivalent of 'old man shouts at cloud' when he gets upset randomly
"his spine, that's always been there" well yeah
I absolutely agree with customizing your animal’s enclosure to their needs and preferences. They are individuals. My Cali king loooves blankets and soft things so I got him this soft crinkly tube made for ferrets and he loves going through it, easy stimulation as well. Who would have thought a snake would like a ferret toy lol
Yea, my beardie hates enclosures. Enclosures of any sizes stresses him out so he has free range of the house and gets to go outside with supervision. He gets baths and his food brought to him and he can run around and do laps from the living room, dinning room, and kitchen going in a circle. The other day we had a repair man here and he ran out to watch him to make sure they didnt do anything weird.
People say random things and get so many likes, so here I go
Stan looks like a banana.
He does
Yes he does
I can see it
angry banana stan
Yeah, maybe a little because he's yellow and brown/black...
I completely agree, what is that about?!?
I would literally die for Stan. What an absolute legend.
So glad Stan is doing well! Stan might be bobbing to say "I feel good" or "I like this." My beardie (RIP Taz, 13 years) would bob after being fed or when I put him in his favorite window. You also might want to make pop noises with your lips 2-4 times in a row. One of your beardies might do it back! You could have a little conversation with them!
Currently 1:00 am but when i get a notification I’m here😂
In these crazy times I wait for GoHerping updates like blessing from the god
I can relate
Poor Stan went through a lot. The best to you, buddy. Thanks for taking care of ol' uncle Stan, the war veteran dragon with a beard.
I find this story kind of amazing and it gives me hope as I'm in an almost identical situation. About 2 1/2 to 3 weeks ago my friend and I took in a bearded dragon (my first ever) that has been neglected his whole life. He's about 10 years old from what we know (crazy similarity) and lived his whole life in a tank that is too small for anything beyond a baby. With only newspaper, a single branch not even the width of his body, and no lamp. He had only been fed lettuce and never had solid stool. When we showed up he looked so weak, his color was pale, he was super skinny, super cold, and he barely responded to anything. I was frankly amazed he was still alive. For the first couple days he didn't move at all, I had to constantly check to see if he was breathing since it was so shallow. Eventually he opened his eyes and started to at least move his head around and I was very relieved since I wasn't sure if he would continue to live and I was going into this blind since the decision was sudden and I didn't know anyone who had ever owned a beardie. But he's improved so much so quickly and I'm so hopeful now for the future. He's been taking to foods beyond lettuce (at first he wouldn't eat anything except lettuce), he watches and focuses on everything I do, will constantly try to get my attention lol, and he looks overall to be so much happier. I feel like we're really bonding now, and its a bond I hope to keep with him for a long time. And seeing you and Stan gives me hope for Kimchi and I (new name since he's in a new, better home. His old name was lame anyways lol). I've been watching your vids for tips and good habits to care for beardies so thank you for that as well and I'm going to continue to grow and learn.
When you started talking about giving him away I wanted to cry. He loves you.
Protect him at all costs.
We love him.
I’m so glad that you still have Stan
"Stan sucks at climbing"
*Insert clip of stand falling off his basking spot in the background of a previous video*
Also, I literally laughed out loud at him bobbing and waving at the same time 🤣😂🤣
He a switch
I was so confused on why the plant in the background was moving to much until I realized it was underwater.
" He doesn't show any agression towards people"
Stan
*Trying to slit throat*
Stan: I'm grumpy
Also Stan: I want cuddles

If Stan was a grandpa, that basking spot is his recliner!

long live Stan ! i personnaly lost my bearded dragon a week ago he was 15. I miss him so much.
Alex: Stan is probably my favorite animal in the house
Betty: *has a new target*
An entire video about our favourite bobbing boi? Alex is spoiling us.
You know my heart just melted at 6:30
Despite your usual deadpan delivery, it is clear how much you love Stan. Very wholesome. I stan.
Omg I was literally just thinking about Stan the other day and how he’s always bobbing his head 💖
"...wake up, bask, get angry, and then eat, drink some and go to sleep." Is Stan my grandpa? I assume he's not drinking Victoria Bitter tho.
I would love to see a video about scaleless beardies. You’re probably one of the best people to talk about this issue.
😶
i don’t understand
*Wait...*
So like...a shaved lizard?
I didn't know beardies even came in scaleless.... o-0
@@e.g.2261 Yeah, it's a pretty controversial topic. When they're scaless they don't have spikes or anything. They also need to be sun lotioned or they can get really bad skin diseases. It's also pretty hard for them to shed.
I don't know a ton about it, but what I do know it doesn't sound great....
@@e.g.2261 That is what silkback (silkie) bearded dragons are. They lack scales and are just smooth skinned. It leads to a lot of problems and they need special care as a result. I have heard there is even other issues due to the inbreeding involved in their creation so they can be more prone to mental issues or cancer.
I adopted a silkback from a breeder who accidentally produced him. They wanted to get him shipped out to me ASAP because it seems that he was a LOT of trouble to maintain. I'm an experienced bearded dragon keeper, so I knew what I was getting into. Lots of conflicting info on care, though, so I've had a bit of a learning experience with a scaleless/silkback.
Lots of time and money to maintain! But I love him dearly. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone except experienced keepers. Also: don't purchase silkbacks; rescue/adopt instead.
Stan is an old man who yells at clouds on his lawn.
Hey, Alex! I’ve been watching you for about two and half years now, and you’re AWESOME! Have a great day! (You’re weird but I’m a good way)
thankya
we stan Stan 👏🏽
Oh he’s sooo cute when he’s nomming on things! He looks so genuinely happy :,)
Stan is the definition of grumpy old man. I love him so much.
This is not only my favorite reptile CZcamsr but the most chill and laid back reptile keeper
Nobody:
Not a soul:
Stan: Stay our of my territory.
stay *our* of my territory
stay our of my territory
stay our of my territory
Wat. *Our* you doin’. In me swamp?!
*aggressive bobbing*
My beardie boy Mochi has a routine where he does laps around his enclosure, and whenever he gets to this one spot, he bobs for a bit. But I swear he knows when we start filming bc he's NEVER let us take a video of his bobbing.
Mochi is quite the character.
Aww, he's a cutie! And right from the start I was thinking he looked small, so it made sense when you said his previous owner didn't really know what they were doing and he had MBD. He looks sweet, though. :) Also, NEVER would have guessed he was over 10 years old! WHOA! Pretty good for a slightly less well cared for beardie!
The real question is: is he Stanford or Stanley?
Hailey Warn he’s named after gruncle Stan from gravity falls so whichever gruncle stans full name is is also probobly stans name
But that’s the whole question. For the whole show he went by Stanford, but at the end it was revealed his name was Stanley
Neither:
Stan the Man with the Plan
I'm so glad your keeping him!! Hes my favorite I love seeing him in the background of your videos!
Wow, Stan’s your favorite? That’s really good to know, I like him too. He’s a survivor and he likes tomatoes.
Stan is my favorite reptile he reminds me of my Breaded dragon I miss him my grandparents thought I wasn’t ready😭😭but ya Stan is my favorite
Stan: Get off my lawn!!!
I think Stan is happy he stayed too. So cute climbing up on your shoulder, I think he knows you are his person and he loves you in what ever way a beardie can love.
I'm so happy he is cared for so well 🥺✨
Stan is definitely my favorite as well, so much personality in a small black bearded package!
Plot twist: you’re hiding the truth from us and Stan is a titan. The end of the video is just you dealing with the consequence
End of video club: love the Attack on Titan reference! ❤️❤️

I'm so glad I watch all of your videos to the very end.
Stan is literally my favorite! I love when he does something funny in the background of your videos.
Are scaleless bearded dragons the “silky back” varieties? If so, yes they are terrible.
I had to look them up, and it kind of looks like something you would breed if you didn't like beardies and wanted them to suffer just by living, much like toad line bulldogs.
@@Call-me-Al theyre absolutely terrible. A couple years back, my mom and i rescued one from a really shady pet shop. When we saw her she was gray and dull and just lifeless. She was missing toes, and the end of her tail. She was malnourished. She just looked terrible. I was already really into beardies, and had the general supplies we needed for her. We knew we had to take her, so we did! After a lot of love and patience, she is doing great now. her color is beautiful, she gets fresh food daily, her enclosure is beautiful, and she is a completely different beardie now. I like to use her as a good example of why silkie beardies should not exist. we love her, and i wouldnt get rid of her obviously. But it breaks my heart that she suffered for so long before we came along, and it breaks my heart that for so many "silky bearded dragons", they never do find that right family and just face a life of neglect. They should not be in the pet hobby, they should not be bred, they should be banned.
stan just wanted to eat in front of a camera for the first time
The editing at the end was absolutely perfect and exactly what I needed.
I really appreciate that you put subtitles in every video! Thanks for making your channel inclusive
