Hello! My name is Kelly and I have recently bought a baby bearded dragon for my son and for the whole family! As I am a reptile lover mostly lizards and geckos. I have a leopard gecko and have had her for almost 7yrs. I just love the new addition to our family as do my sons and my husband. I just have a couple of questions?? One I have had Boomer for almost 4day's now I was wondering how long does it take them to adjust to the new surroundings? He seems to be doing well although I don't see him eat much. Is this because of his small size and he doesn't need to eat as much. He does love crickets but as far as veggies and fruits he will eat grapes but seems not so interested in the Kale I have provided him. I have heard they can be picky eaters. Also I do have a light source for him and plenty of trees and stumps to bask on. The girl at the pet store told me they left the light on all night?? I find that a little odd but I have been doing it. Would it be okay to get him a light that simulates night time as well?? He does tend to sleep a lot but it very alert when we come into the room and almost welcomes us to pick him up and he loves to just lay in our hands and chill for awhile. I just want to make sure I am doing all the right things because by far he is one of the coolest reptiles I have owned.
Thank you
