Hello,
I have just got a baby bearded dragon a couple of days ago and I am unsure on how much I should hold him/her.
P.S this is my first bearded. Please help

Thanks,

When they are that small I would probably limit handling unless they seem really OK with it and not afraid or defensive. For a while it may be best to just interact by sitting by the enclosure frequently and maybe do some hand feeding of treats like black soldier fly larvae to help build a bond.

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.
