I’ll be receiving his little guy in the mail on Tuesday, got him from Dachiu Bearded Dragons! I still haven’t chosen a name yet!
My question is, any advice on how I can make him more comfortable after unboxing? I know he will be stressed out when he arrives, wanted to see if anyone does anything special for when they get their dragons shipped/when they bring them home. Also, how long should I wait to begin handling him? I read on here it’s best to start that early but idk the timeline. All advice welcome
Hi there, open the box slowly + give him a minute for his eyes to adjust to the light before you lift the container out of the actual shipping box. Then just put him in his new set up. He should settle in pretty quickly, after he warms up for an hour offer a few small insects. Don't let him stuff himself the first day but do offer a small-medium meal.
I gave mine a treat, which she took. But be upset if he doesn't eat it. Yes, he will be stressed when he arrives. Be sure to leave him alone for 2-3 days, as hard as it is. Do you have the tank set up? If so, Can you post a pic? Good luck!
