Hello,
We just got a 8-10 week old 'orange crush' beardie for our son for Christmas. (He's been obsessed with them for a while now). We were told our beardie is a boy and have him currently in 4ft by 2 ft by 2 foot tank (with a divider down the center until he gets larger). I think hes about 4-5 inches long and bright orange in colour. He enjoys being held and doesn't like to let us go when we need to give the rest of the family love and attention. He has been eating crickets that have been 'gut-loaded' with some gooey calcium fortified stuff. Ummm what else, temp is about 90-100 and the humidity is around 25 (whatever those numbers mean I just know how to read the thing). There is no name for him yet as our son isn't seeing him until Christmas. I was just hoping for tips for care or quick info from current beardie owners as I have never owned a reptile before.
