Common Name: Bearded Dragon (Hypo Zero morph)
Scientific Name: Pogona vitticeps
Family: Agamidae

Lifespan: 8–12 years (up to 15 in captivity with excellent care)
Adult Size: 16–24 inches (40–60 cm)
The term “Hypo Zero” actually refers to a combination of two genetic traits (morphs):
| Gene | Description |
|---|---|
| Hypomelanistic (“Hypo”) | Reduces dark pigmentation (melanin), resulting in lighter, pastel colors and clear nails instead of dark claws. |
| Zero | Completely patternless and colorless morph — lacks the typical bars, stripes, and markings, resulting in a smooth, solid color (usually white, silver, or pale gray). |
When both traits combine, the Hypo Zero morph is a very pale, patternless, almost white bearded dragon with clear nails — one of the most visually stunning morphs available.
Color:
Solid white to light silver or pearl-gray (no pattern or markings).
Nails:
Clear/white due to hypomelanism (distinguishes it from non-hypo zeros).
Scales:
Smooth and even, with typical beard and body structure of Pogona vitticeps.
Eyes:
Typically light brown, gray, or sometimes slightly amber.
All bearded dragons originate from Australia’s arid interior — deserts, scrublands, and savannas.
They are diurnal (day-active) and basking reptiles, spending much of their day under sunlight or heat sources.
Bearded dragons are omnivorous, eating both plants and insects.
Juveniles (0–6 months): 70% insects, 30% greens
Sub-Adults (6–12 months): 50% insects, 50% greens
Adults (1 year+): 20–30% insects, 70–80% greens
Insects: Crickets, dubia roaches, silkworms, hornworms, black soldier fly larvae
Vegetables: Collard greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, dandelion leaves, squash
Fruits (occasional treats): Blueberries, papaya, mango, apples
Always dust insects with calcium + vitamin D 4–5x per week (juveniles) and 2–3x per week (adults).
