Welcome! You have now become a beardie slave! The things we do for our beardies lol. I would just say make sure the basking temp is between 100-110 and the cool side of the tank is 80-90. Stray away from substrate when they are babies to avoid them eating it and getting impact. Try the felt stuff they sell at pet stores and feed at least two hours before you turn the lights out so he can digest ( they can't digest unless the basking temp is as stated above). Feed 2-3 times a day as many crickets as he can have in 15 mins good luck! You came to the right place if you ever have questions

Don't feed then the crap from the pet stores unless you want to poison your dragon. Most of those products are corn based and 90% of corn made in America is GMO (poison). My drains only eat organic vegetables and specifically raised dubia and super worms.

What they said ^^. I do strictly crickets and all organic veggies and fruit.
