Hi All-
My 8y/o daughter received a bearded Dragon from Santa for Christmas (wink wink) and have a few questions about the care. He is a baby around 3 months old. We’ve had him for a little over a week. He doesn’t seem to be eating as much as I am reading about, especially his greens.. In short, here are a few questions in order of priority:
1-Where do I put the probe for the thermometer? I am getting crazy readings depending on where I put it? Maybe its just a cheap-o one? I use a temp gun and get consistent reading but the thermometer I have in there now, seems all messed up.. This is the one: https://zoomed.com/digital-thermometer/
2-For greens, do I need to chop pieces small and place in food dish?
3-We have live crickets and give him 4 or 5 at a time when I add more, he won’t touch them..
4-What are the correct humidity levels?
5-I have (2) 75Watt bulbs for basking and tank still only gets up to 100.. Is this ok?
Attached is a pic of my setup… Thanks for looking..
