New juvenile bearded dragon.

[longmachao]

I've just received a juvenile bearded dragon from a friend. I have a 3yrs old beardy right now .. but got him when he was already an adult of over a year old. Any advice on what i should be doing differently when it come to a younger beardy? (not sure age, friend got it from someone who was moving). Also, a couple of question.

He's a a lot darker than mine, is it just because he's still young?


Is this a nip tail?


Can somone sex it for me, i can't tell.

Hi, welcome to the forums. Dark colors typically means stress.

If i may offer a suggestion. I would separate as soon as possible.
These animals are solitary in the wild and only come together for breeding.

I totally agree with Gilliesextoics. Separate them at once. Stress is a factor in his darkness.

You can't really tell if he's a male or female by the pic. Could be a she. But not sure.
