The bearded dragon I plan on getting is my friends 17 month old, because he is moving away to college and cant take it with him. I am trying to get everything in complete perfect order and organized and planned out, because when things aren't planned out i get stressed out and then everything goes bad! ANYWAYS! I'v been trying to come up with a feeding schedule for the babe. After some research this is what I have come up with:
*Every other day I will feed her some Phoenix worms (I am petrified of roaches and crickets are too expensive here and im on a pretty tight budget) and the phoenix worms with some calcium powder just every few feeds since they are already high in calcium. Then some other days coat it in multivitamin powder, but less often than the calcium. This will be fed in the morning, a couple hours after she wakes up and while im there watching her.
*Every day I will leave her some greens and other veggies before I leave for work, around 4, or my mom will do it a little later. The veggies will be a daily thing.
*On weekends I will treat her to some fruit and variety of worms like superworms or hornworms. Y'know, the GOOD stuff
*I plan on giving her a bath every day about 20 minutes or until she poops, a little after she finishes eating, and then having play time with her until I have to go to work. I only want to take her out to play after she poops so she gets in the habit of *poop then play* so she wont poop on me or on the carpet while we are playing.
So how does this all sound?? All of this is of course dependent on her and what she does and what she likes, this is just a rough plan I will try to implement just to keep my sanity and order for now. I'm so excited to have my Bellatrix <3
