Hey I got a beardie about 4 days ago. I am new to keeping them. I have snakes so somewhat have knowledge on reptiles.
Anyway I bought all his stuff including a UVB light bulb and a basking globe but I only have one heat fitting. I thought it would be okay to just swap the globes around half way through the day but then I read they need at least 12 hours of heat and UV. I plan to buy a new heat fitting next week but what can I do until then?
Also is it normal for baby's to be sleeping all the time? He is still active and moves around but he is always sleepy and shutting his eyes. He only ate 2 crickets today also but he ate like normal yesterday. I'm a bit worried it's because of the UV or heat problem but again it's only been 4 days.
Sorry for being so noob. Also he's 2 months old and it's winter in Australia.
