I will use one of the mods small template, this template should be sticky!
How old is your dragon? I beleive around 6-7 months
How long have you had your dragon? 1,5 months
How long is your dragon? approx 30cm+/12inch+
What is the sex of your dragon? female
What size enclosure do you have your dragon in? solely glass, see photos
What type substrate do you have on the bottom of your tank? carpet underneath to keep warm and then some nice shelf liner
Do you use UVB lights? Yes a "bad one" - Exoterra Reptiglo 10.0 UVB compact
How old is your UVB bulb? As old as I have had my beardie, 1.5 months
How close can your dragon get to the UVB? + / - 6 inch / 15 cm
Do you use a separate basking bulb? What kind and what is the wattage? yes, 100 W exoterra bulb
What are the basking temps? around 114 F / 45 C
What is the cool side temp? between 74-80 F / 22-25 C
Do you take the temps with a stick on thermometer, a digital thermometer with a wire and a probe end or a temp gun? digital therm wire probe
Where exactly are you taking your basking temps? everywhere basically... checking always
Do you use a heat rock or heat pad? Nope!
What do you feed your dragon? Please be specific. Crickets: little bit over sized, a little bit of superworms sometimes and wax worms. This is because on Malta it is temp. out of stock with any good feeders. Yes its true!
How often do you feed and what time do you feed (morning, afternoon, night)? Feed once or twice daily: Morning around 8.30 (lights on 7.30) and/or around 2-3PM, lights off 6.30
Do you gutload (feed) your crickets, worms, etc? Sure! Oats, apples, carrots, vitamins, calcium

Do you mist your dragon or offer water other than in the bath? No misting, offering bath bowl which she is not using
Does your dragon share an enclosure with another dragon? No
Have you gotten a vet check and fecal done? No
ADDITIONAL INFO
She is eating a little less and less, not interested in the crickets anymore (could be because they are too big) but still likes the superworms - except for today. She is eating 2-4 pieces of cactusfruit/prickly pear every day, and thats what she will touch in salad way. The most crickets she ever ate so far was 30 in a day. Today for example, she only ate 1 cricket and 5 superworms (again I am very aware that she should not eat this but currently no choice, separate thread for this). I do not know what an active dragon is really since I think she has never been very active since I got her... She is mostly still when I see her and moves around perhaps from the basking stone to her favorite log, and back. Today she was also sleeping in my t-shirt (in the terrarium) when I came home, very strange.
She cannot possibly be under much stress, I am not home much of the day at all, and handles her max 30 minutes per day - any day.
Now thing is, the breeder is a very experienced herp breeder, pet shop owner with Loads of animals by himself in his own home (13 years of experience), so I felt safe when bying from him. He is using this UVB light for basically all his lizards, and they are all fine according to him - and this means that she has grown up with this light. He said he would "throw in" 30 crickets in the terrarium when she was living with another beardie, and they would be gone... she was eating in other words around 15 per day.
And of course... some photos!
I am just merely wondering if my dragons poo is fine or not.
Less firm now, and with loads of liquid.
Firstly; around 2 weeks ago:
Today:
Much more loose and loads of liquid (please notice I did take away half the liquid, and most of the brown poo)
Incredibly interested in the crickets... not HAHA (look at the tail)
My baby!
