*pokes fingers together* I guess I'm posting this in the right forum... I tend to lurk on forums but figured I should post at least once and ask advice.
Petco had baby bearded dragons the other day and the girl there let me hold one for a few seconds. I fell in love! So I went home, started studying everything about bearded dragons. Decided in several months, maybe June or July, to maybe get one. But I'm learning everything about them and how to care for them before I even think about getting one. I read about how the habitat should be set up with uvb lights, hidey hole(s), and a basking area. I read about the food and what to feed them and what not feed them. I read how to hold them and to not touch their tail.
I was wanting to ask advice cause I gathered that they could be hard to care for and I want to do it right. I don't think there is a vet around here that looks at bearded dragons, I still need to call two places and ask, though.
But I was wondering how much a baby and an adult dragon eat? I have a 29 gallon right now, do I need bigger when they are a baby or can I wait a few eeks to get a bigger one?
I hope I'm not annoying but I'm wanting to do this right.
