New Beardie!!

[loveleos_07]

Hi guys, We just got a new beardie, and he is supposed to be about 12-14 weeks old. He weighs 15grams and is about 5-6 inches long. We are keeping him in a 45 gal breeder tank. He has lots of plastic plants, and some hides, and some tall rocks. He has a 8.0 UVB light, and a red heat bulb. His temps are 103 in the hot spot, and in the coolest area about 80. He is very lively, and he LOVES to be held. He eats lots of crix but not his salad! Advice? Comments??

veggies are very important to the diet.

and so is heat. 90-110 degrees.

well at this age they are cricket fanatics... eating upwards of 70 crix in one day... crazy! But as they age they will have to be weaned off the crix and be feed mostly greens. But at this age it is perfectly fine that it eats only crix.

Some say he is too small for his age, 15grams and 6 inches long, about 11 weeks old, what do you guys think?
