Hello,
My name is Stormwolfe and I was the recipient of a baby Bearded Dragon for Christmas. He is adorable, approximately 3 months old and 7 to 8 inches long. Right now, he is he by default due to the fact that he's not old enough to be sexed yet.
The gift giver included a 36 x 18 x 18 Exo-Terra habitat for him with all the lighting, basking decor, etc. For substrate, I am using natural colored imitation slate porcelain tiles. He's on a diet of crickets, wax worms, veggies, and pelleted Beardie food. I am concerned about his diet as his appetite seems very uneven. He seems to be pooping normally and regularly.
Right now, most of his time is spent reclining at the top of the branch that's directly under his basking spot.
He still dislikes being handled and I think my biggest fear is killing him with kindness. I fell in love with Beardies about fifteen years ago when a shop owner let me hold his. Now that I'm out of work, it seemed a great time to add the dragon to my household of feathers and fur.
I'm so glad I found this site. There's so much conflicting information on the internet and even in the care books.
Best Regards,
Stormwolfe
