My girlfriend and I are planning to get a bearded dragon. We will have a 66 gal tank for it. We have a full length fluorescent fixture for the UVA/UVB bulb and I will heat the tank with a combination of an UTH and a basking light during the day.
I was thinking that the tank might be too big for a baby so I plan to either put a smaller tank in the bigger one for a while or wall off a smaller section of the big tank. Is this necessary?
We will start feeding it small crickets and offer a few recommended veggies. Can it also eat meal worms and/or silkworms when it's very young or should I wait until it gets bigger?
Any tips for a soon-to-be first time beardie owner?
