Quick question for the experts

I just got my bearded dragon and it seems he is a bit nervous in his terrarium and idk why he always has stress marks on him when I take him out. Is this anything to be concerned with? Thanks in advance!

Congrats on your new family member ! It's very typical for them to be stressed for a while [ relocation stress ] , it may last for a few days or a week or more. Don't handle the dragon too much for the first week or so and let him get used to seeing you around. It's always good to post pics of the beardie, the set up and describe exactly what lights you're using so any needed adjustments can be made. Here is how to post pics :
