Hello!
My bearded dragon is a 6 month old male. He lives in a 4ft vivarium with two UVB bulbs situated along the roof, one is a 10.0 and one 2.0. The heat lamp is situated on top of the viv, 105 F on the hot side and around 88 F on cool side (a bit too hot I know but struggling to get my thermostat to work :? ). He eats crickets and calci worms, as well as rocket, butternut squash and some occasional strawberries. Some days he'll eat hardly anything and other days he will eat loads. He is currently 14.5 inches nose to tip of the tail, 14.5 CM around the belly and 180 g. I got him at 3 1/2 months old and he was 7.5 inches then. Is this an okay size for a 6 month old male? I am constantly worried about his growth, as I've read posts on here of males being 300-400 g by this age
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
