hey all,
recently got my first pair of 1 month old (pygmy) black soil bearded dragons off a member (adictv, very helpful reliable and good price ), the one started to bully the smaller one n it stopped eating moving so i seperated them and he seemed better moving and eating but then unfortunately about one day later i woke up and found him dead for unknown reason!!! If i get another baby is there goin to be a problem putting them together ?
The second is doing well.and last night built him a new home until hes bigger which he seemed to be very happy about, just had a few quick questions.
. I have him on paper at the moment but looking for another substrate, should i be looking for a black substrate or is the red desert sand okay? should i get the cal inriched one aswell?
. i just wanted to know generally the light cycles( times) i should be running?
and last .. how many times a day? and at what stages in the day do they like to eat? and how many is too many? at the moment he only eats about 2-8 a day... i have him feeding on just small crickets dusted,should i be giving him worms or woodies or anything else?? the ones i can get from local shop are pretty big tho!! so i dont think hell be able to eat them.
Iv been trying to get him used to having vegs but he doesn't seem to interested, iv tried bok choy and carrots what else should i try?
thanks everyone look forward to your responces and ill try find a camera n try get some pics
