I have a baby bearded Dragon I have had for less then two weeks. I have thought since he is still small enough I could set up a back up tank at work and take him with me to work my 4 days a week. Pending my works approval but they let me keep a beta fish so I am thinking I could talk them into it. I work Graveyard shift so I am away at night for the 4 days a week and thought he might feel more secure seeing me when he sleeps at night and I normally turn on the lights when I get off work at 6:30 a.m. so he should be able to get sleep ok all night in the tank at work. I have a small portable habitat I can put him in to take to work which is only a 20 minute drive each way.
I also figure my work should be warm enough for night that he wouldn't need any special lights but maybe a heater to put on the side of the tank. Which I am planning on getting him or building him a bigger tank soon so I can just use his old 10 gal tank at work.
My main worry is that the transfer back and forth with him being so young might cause him stress and defeat the purpose of having him close to me all the time.
