Recently Adopted A Previously Owned Lizard!

[Poplar]

Hello! I recently adopted my friend’s lizard she could no longer afford. She said she had him for about 8 months, so I’d assume he’s about 9 months old!

I did quite a bit of research before hand, and have a good set up!

My big question is, is there anything I can do to make the change less stressful?

The only thing I can suggest is to make sure your viv is already set up and running at correct temperatures and humidity.

Then place the little one on the viv, and leave him/her alone for a couple days so the dragon can get used to his new digs and surroundings. But it really depends on the dragon, both of my re-homes had zero transition stress, but I followed my own advice as per above. The transition was easy, as both of them seemed to go with the flow.
