Sleeping Schedule

That sounds like an okay schedule.

Mine is on a later schedule to suit my "day" - so her lights are on at 10am and off at 10pm. That will extend gradually to another couple hours on for summer time. As long as yours is getting the right amount of daylight hours when those hours are shouldn't matter too much - unless you get a lot of daylight in the room where the viv is, which will wake up or keep up your dragon. But you could always cover the front with a blanket.

I have A new shift at work and need to leave by 5:30am. I used to feed my dragon once in the morning and once around dinner time when I got home. My question is, can I play around with his sleep schedule? Can I wake him up at 4:30am so his ready to eat by 5:15ish. And put him to sleep around 19-20h? will it be bad for him if I wake him up that early and keep the lights on 14-15 hours? I will get home and feed him at around at 17-16h and I like to keep the lights on minimum 2h after his done eating. I always leave fresh greens and veggies for him all day. Taco is around 2 months old

Thanks !

Australia gets an average of 14 hours daylight in summer. (Though in line with Hobart they do get 15) And winter daylight averages are 9-10 hours.

12 hours for a between-season would be in tune with their natural light amounts in the wild.
