My new bearded dragon from Petco is sick. Can I exchange it?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

I just got a bearded dragon form petco less than a week ago and it’s extremely lazy and from the day I got it mostly only opens one eye. I did my research before yes I have heat and uvb lamps and all that good stuff. I want to know if I should exchange it or what. I am very scared it’ll die. It’s a juvenile btw.

Only you can decide to exchange Peach or not. Your options include returning her for exam and treatment if indicated, exchanging her completely or taking her to your own veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating reptiles for an exam. You are well within your guarantee period with Petco. Contact the store where Peach was purchased and discuss your options with store personnel.
