Beardies!! :)UPDATED (Leatherbacks Week 10!)

[Thetopher125]

Okay guys so I'm not completely new but they are my second beardies I bought 2 if they are 2 females I'm going to keep them both is male male or male female I'm going to give one to my girlfriend do they can still visit with each other they are housed in a 55g aquarium I know its big but I simply have a 10 gal I fees them in and the love the large aquarium they run around and use all the space they are only 3 weeks old and I'm currently not working so I'm watching them like a hawk anyways they are some amazing looking beardies for there age they are both leatherbacks and one is already pretty much completely Orange after 1 shed and have grown 1/2 to 3/4 in these last 5 days alone no greens yet but I'm trying.
Any advice you think I may need Lmk
And I was also wondering what is the best food for them I have been just giving gut loaded baby crickets with calcium powder and multi-vitamin supplements 1 time so far
Also what happens if you put the same supplemental on the cricket food will they get the supplements even better like in the same way as gutloading?
Always now for some pics

They are very cute! Where did you get them from? I use reptiworms for my tiny babies right now. Then I don't have to worry about dusting or gutloading. I also have small dubia that I can feed them.. I hate crickets!

I got them from a small local classified breeder which is another reason I was amazed the I I have never seen a red/orange beardie before his first shed even and he is almost done with it now and I think he is going to be like his mom I'm going to keep using crickets for now cuz I have a pet store out by my house that sells them in bulk so I just bought 1000 little guys and have potato carrot and oats in 2 5 gallon buckets and seems pretty easy for now anyways here is a pic of what the mom looked like(not my pic but looks just like her)and a pic of the dad which is my pic

And daddy

My lil one is 5 weeks old yesterday. I just got her from Rio Reptiles.. ) I also have Phred who will be 9 months old in a week, and Ollie who is a year old. I've obtained all these since December.. Started with 1, ended up with 3.. Isn't that how it works? Too addicting! :roll:

Thanks Everyone so i guess they are 3 weeks old today ) on that note i busted out my nice cam and took some pics outside
Although (Unnamed until we find out males or females) the darker one was not liking it outside for the first time and her belly was showing that lol anyways they are still adorable te orange one just finished her first friken shed SHE IS GOING TO BE A LOOKERRR well here are some good pics with my nice camera

 

[lauraj1055]

they must be pretty calm for you to be able to take them outside like that and them not jump and run... If I took my babies out like that, they'd be gone in a second!

Gorgeous little dragons.

 

[Thetopher125]

Ya that's my number one thing to do I hold them 3 times a day for 10 to 15 mins then feed them so they love me they are sketish when picking them up but after that they climb on me usually finger tips then pass out all about building trust and thanks
