My First Dragon

[Teleste]

Meet Telos

He's nearly 4 months old, eating very good and he seems to be adjusting well upon receiving him from A-1 Reptiles just 2 days ago.

His home has one fluorescent tube, one UVB MegaRay, and one 150w halogen flood light dimmed very low. The temps stay between 95-100.

I feed him twice a day and bathe him in a big bowl twice a day. He doesn't seem to dislike the bath, but he doesn't seem very happy about it either. So far he has only used the restroom in the bath.

After eating yesterday, he was waving his arms for the first time. He seems very happy and interested to see me.

I've been feeding him 1/4 size crickets or cutting larger crickets in half, dusted with calcium powder without D3 and very little multivitamin. He gobbles the crickets up so fast!

Comments? Suggestions?

Welcome! What a cutie!! So jealous .. I wish my guy would wave, but he's 3 and we just adopted him, so who knows if he'll ever do it or not. Congrats on your new little one!

Thank you he is so precious! His belly puffs up really big when he's in the bath, and he "contracts" his beard repeatedly but it doesn't seem to puff up.

Even though he acts unsure whether he likes the bath, he brightens up so bright after one!

Welcome, and congratulations! What a cutie!
