Bearded Dragon Egg

Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum, as well as bearded dragons. I bought my first one yesterday, a Sandfire/ German Giant cross named Altair. I'm feeling pretty bad right now because even though he seems healthy, he does have a few issues (the gagging thing, and his one poop has been smelly), and my cage isn't the best. I'm going to correct this a.s.a.p., but I really wish I'd done more research beforehand. I think my main problem is all the conflicting sources out there, which only serve to confuse and frustrate me! Right now my main resource is this forum and "Your Happy Healthy Pet- Bearded Dragon 2nd edition" by Steve Grenard. I've also found the beautifuldragons food chart to be extremely useful!
If anyone else can point me to valuable sources, please let me know!
About me...I'm a full time college student majoring in biology, and I'll be graduating in the winter of this year. I want to go on to pursue a master's degree as well. I've always loved reptiles and I'm also the proud adoptee of a 13 year old rosy boa named Rosie. (I named her when I was 8...what can I say!) I do realize however that their care is very different from a BD, and they're much more low maintenance. But Rosie is my baby and I love her with all my heart, as I do with Altair now...I just hope he'll thrive.
Anyway...look forward to any more advice and photos, vids, and stories of peoples beardies!
