Hey guys,
I am hoping to pick up my first pair of central netteds on saturday and i just want to make sure ive got everything alright and up to scratch!!
First things first, the enclosure size is 700 by 700 by 400 with lots of logs and fake rock for climbing, i gather that this size enclosure is alright for a pair but nothing more. Im using red reptile sand, i know that some people find this dangerous but the two dragons are over 8 months old and from what ive heard it is fine. Ive got a nice hot basking spot ( ive heard the appreciate tempretures around 45 to even 50) and the hotest it gets is 48 or 50 so im pretty happy with that. Correct me if any of that is wrong please!!
Im not too sure about feeding though, roughly how many crickets should they be eating to stay healthy, and should i be offering them greens (if so what sort, is bok choy alright?). I think thats everything but if you guys have anymore advice i would love to here it as i like to get things right the first time around.
P.S I ve got a pygmy beardie and im guessing their overall general husbandery is similar?
Thanks Guys!
