Most pet stores will not "buy" back animals. Each one may have a different policy, so you would need to contact the store directly and speak with a manager. Contact the local humane society and ask if they have any people looking to adopt a bird. You can do the same with local veterinary clinics. If there is an avian vet nearby, contact them or check the office bulletin board. There may be options there.

Customers under the age of 18 cannot purchase live Companion Animals or Aquatic Life without a parent or guardian present. (Excluding crickets and worms). Due to the demands of time and intricate care required with certain species, it is in the best interest of the animals to not sell to minors. Parental permission at time of sale will ensure a better home for the animal and lower our rate of return.

As he matures, he will eat less protein (prey) and more greens. You should limit the wax worms though due to their high fat content. If he is regularly eating greens, continue to offer a healthy salad as well as a commercial beardie diet. Prey can be fed every other day. Make sure prey is appropriately sized. If they are too big, he won't eat. Be sure to gut load them to maximize nutritional value and dust with a calcium supplement and multivitamin several times weekly. Drop temperature across the tank to about 76 F on the cool side and 86 F on the warm side. The basking spot can be set around 90 - 100 F.
