I guess I did this out of order.
I asked a couple of questions before introducing myself. Where are my manners!?
We've had our Beardie for about a month and a half. We are in Napa CA and we are first time BD owners.
I did quite a bit of browsing here before deciding on a BD and I'm happy with our decision.
Unfortunately, I purchased him from Petco and they sold me a bunch of crap (I've since learned) for our set up.
The next day we took the meal worms & the stick-on thermometers back and exchanged the calcium supplement.
Thanks to you folks, we now have the right UV light and a temp gun too!
When we got our BD, Petco said he was about 3 months old but I was looking at the growth charts @ the Beautiful Dragons website and it looks like he was probably more like 3-4 weeks! He was only approx 3" total.
I think we've got his set up nailed down now, I just wish he was a better eater. He gets phoenix worms and greens daily and crickets a couple times a week. He has never touched his greens (I know quite normal) and he only eats 4-5 worms or crickets at a time. We've only had the Reptisun for a couple of days, so I'm hoping that will help improve his appetite.
Anyway... Thanks being here, I'm sure I'll be asking more questions in the near future!
