I just got my first little guy on Saturday. I bought him from a guy on craigslist, who said he did his friend a favor and adopted his female and male, and the female ended up being pregnant and laid 27 eggs! Due to this, I'm not sure Iroh (my beardie) got as much care and attention as he needed. He's friendly and so far fairly comfortable around me, and seems to really love his enclosure. However the breeder said they all hatched April/May of last year, so he's about a year old. Iroh was definitely the smallest of the group that the breeder had left.
My question is: since he's so small, should I feed him as if he's under a year old until his growing catches up to where it's supposed to be? i.e. insects 2-3x a day instead of just once a day.
Also, separate side question - right now I'm offering him fresh greens in the morning and leaving them in his enclosure, and then offering a fresh batch at night (along with insects). This is a good schedule, correct? Just want to be sure
Thanks in advanced for your help!
