Question

i am buying a baby beardie and its my first pet. i just wanted to know that since I'm a kid and go to school i have a different schedule. at 6:45am i put on the lights.At 7:00am i give it its salad and i go to school and then at 2:30 i feed it its crickets. At 6:30 i feed it again and at 9:00pm the lights go out. is this a right schedule or should i do anything else. thx!

that sounds good have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

Answer 2

yep, sounds about right!

Answer 3

Sounds good.  Lights should be on about 12 hours and off 12 hours.  Timers help develop a natural day/night cycle.  Romaine is not good food.  Crickets should be dusted with every meal as they are not balanced (calcium/phosphorus).  

A young beardie will eat close to 100 small crickets a day!

Answer 4

it all depends on how much romaine lettuce and crickets you feeding them in captivity they will eat until they throw up your schedule for the light is fine but be careful how much and what you are feeding them it helps to pick up a book just on beardies. and make sure your giving it calcium and vitamins d at least once a week.and be sure to spray them with warm water every other day to ensure they shed ok
