Hello everyone. I am new to beardies, i purchase two beardies from what the breeder said theirs one female and one male. i tend to be a worry person in nature lol. i feed them small crickets and vegies two times a day and bathe them before bed time. so i worry about how much i feed their lighting. like if one poops and the other one dosent i think he has impaction so i just want to know the signs of the most common illness and ill upload some pics of them.
i use this bulb that produces uvb and uva plus heating:

i also have this bulb for night heat when it gets cold:

i originaly hand sand in their tank but then i read its bad for them so i quickly cleaned it and replaced it with news paper.
i leave their light on from 7:30 to 6:30 being 12 hours.
these are my beardies: (they have no names yet. any ideas?)
the one on the bottom is the boy hes translucent (hes about 8 weeks) . and then the female (is about 6 weeks) is on top shes a regular beardie.
this is another picture:
same thing from the other one just from a top view.
is my set up and every thing okay? i feed about 10 crickets each twice a day. i know i have to feed them as much as they can eat in 10-15 minutes but i just ordered the small crickets from the internet and pet shops around here don't really have baby crickets.
the crickets i feed them are around 1/4 to 1/2 from the picture scale shown below:
any ideas on improving or suggestions?
