Hello from Michigan! My name is Steve, and my son Alex and I have two new baby dragons that we have completely fell in love with. What amazing little fellas, just so cool. My son is in charge of taking care of the Bearded dragon at school in his science class and had been begging his mother and I for one of his own for months. After having the first for a week we decided one just wasn't going to do it. So after buying a second complete 40 gal terrarium kit we found the perfect friend for our first one. We have them together in one for now but are prepared to separate when the time comes. Their eating crickets like crazy and we also have the supplies needed to start our own dubia colony which will be starting soon after talking with a local breeder today. Our whole family has really taken to these little beardies and we're real excited to watch them grow. Their names are Kiwi and Diego.

Welcome to the forum and to beardies they are amazing critters. They are adorable, I am glad to hear that you have another tank ready to go..it is best to keep them in their own tank as they even when this little can turn on eachother in a blink of an eye as they are solitary critters.
Dubia are the way to go for sure with 2 of them it's worth having your own colony
Looking forward to watching them grow up, and if you need anything let us know, and you can always take a look at the link below several of our comments as we've put together a ton of info for new comers for general info.

I agree with Hdrydr31. Another thing I wanted to mention is make sure you have the proper lights for both tanks. The "kits" don't come with everything that is needed. A basking bulb that gets their basking spot to 107 degrees and a tube style UVB bulb that covers at least 2/3'rds of the tank AND also overlaps with the heat bulb is what is needed.
