I wouldn't try a bath until they are comfortable with their new home and with handling. The bath isn't really necessary unless they get soiled and need to be cleaned up. Some dragons love baths and others hate them. Once you do try a bath, watch for behavior that shows signs of panic or distress that would indicate they don't like the bath. If that's the case, it's not worth the stress and I would limit baths to only when really necessary due to soiled skin/bad smell. If they seem to enjoy the bath and splash around and swim (they are generally very good swimmers) then offer as many baths as you'd like. It really varies between dragons on that one.

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.
