I know its good to handle your beardie to socialize him but mine is just so fragile looking. He is 6 weeks old and born 9/4 how should I be handling and him and for how long.

When they are young they are a little bit more jumpy. I would say it is great to handle a baby. Get's them use to human contact. I would just manybe sit on the floor, so if he does bold, he wont take a fall. How long have you had him?

Mine is also very small and a baby but I take him out at least 2 times a day! Either in my hands or i put him on my bed and let him run around and explore. When he gets to close to the edge, I move him back to the middle. My dragon isn't to skittish. I would say take your dragon out, just don't let him fall or get away! :p

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
