Will she shed again after shedding a week ago?

Baby beardies shed very often. When mine was a baby, she shedded every 5 days. So, I wouldn't be alarmed unless she starts to present concerning behaviors. Usually it means she is growing fast (which is good!) so she needs to shed more often.

She's so cute! Very normal just shed.

Since you are new to owning her would you mind posting a pic of her lighting set-up? She should have a non-colored basking lamp, and a long "tube" UVB light (no coil UBVs). And the UVB bulb must be replaced every 6 months (so that she can keep digesting her calcium and growing bones). No red lamps and no light at night! If it gets cold at night you can always get a ceramic heating bulb (doesn't emit light), which is what I use in the winter.

I agree. She has BEAUTIFUL colors!

I also have a baby/Juvenile so they shed a lot. Mine also has those colors as well but they don't show as much as yours

Just make sure you're feeding her good and she's drinking water to ensure that the shedding process goes smoothly

When i went to get one i told the guy i wanted the brightest chubbiest one and he gave me her and shes so healthy because my mother got a pacman frog and they gave her the smallest one turns out he was sick and wouldnt eat we brought him back and we found out he passed away i didnt want me and my mom to go through that again

 

[Sunkissedrhea]

Thats good to hear! What does she eat?

Lots of live crickets she has a dry mix with calcium in it which i spray down everyday so it stays soft enough for her and then she eats some apples here and there shes picky when it comes to stuff thats not alive i tried wax worms because thats what she was getting fed but since she had a taste of crickets she will not eat worms

Sounds good, are her insects coated in calcium/vitamins? And do you feed her salads?
