Hello everyone! I am a new dragon owner as well as new to this forum. I've been lurking around unregistered, reading lots of topics and doing research and now that I am officially a dragon owner I figured I might as well introduce myself, especially since I see myself needing advice in the future, haha..
Anyway, my new beardie just arrived yesterday and is almost 5 months old, 10 inches long. He's very calm and gentle and doesn't mind being held but also doesn't seem the most thrilled either -- though I imagine he'll feel better in due time. It's so hard not to want to handle him all the time though! He also hasn't eaten much, just a couple tiny pieces of strawberry that I managed to get him to eat from me, though I've read lack of appetite after relocation is also normal, so I'm not worried just yet.
His name is Enkou.
Everything else is going well, except I am having trouble getting the basking temp just right. I'm debating getting a ceramic heat emitter but I'm not sure if it's necessary. He's also been really dark today, even under his beard (though not totally black), so I'm not sure if I'm overreacting or if it's just part of his readjustment period.
Anyway, hi, happy to be here and happy to be a new beardie owner!
