Okay so we just got our first dragon today, he's about 6 months old from what the employee told us. (Also a beardie owner). If I understand correctly, you are to feed it veggies in the morning first. Do I need to rip them up into tiny "between the eyes" sized bits? Also, at wheat time do I feed him crickets ? And how many? Do they need to be dipped in calcium every day? Also, the uvb and basking lights. We just brought him home late, around 8pm tonight. And he for sure got a bit chilly on the ride home. We wanted to heat the tank up first before we plopped the cutie in there but should I shut them off now? He definitely looks tired but I don't want it to get too cold. There is a thermometer in the back middle part of the tank, in between the cold and hot side, which reads a solid 80° F. What is the general schedule for lights on/off and temp for night time? And also what's a basic schedule for juvenile feeding ? Sorry for all the questions. Very overwhelmed !!!
