Hi, new to these forums.
Bought my daughter our first bearded dragon named STUMPY due to missing a few fingers and toes, so not much of a climber.
Have a few questions regarding temperatures and decor.
1. How high should I let the temp get as she only seems to get active when it's around 42 or higher.
2. She is 2 yrs old and in a 3ft tank, do I need to go bigger.
Thanks

42 degrees celsius? That's good and a 3 foot tank is just fine. Do you have a UVB bulb? She looks like she's got a lot of sass!

She's a beautiful beardie! Temp and tank size seem fine. Make sure she has a warm and cool side and something to hide under.
I have a male beardy that flips his feet backwards like that and walks on his ankles (wrists). I was worried about it at first but he's always been that way and it doesn't seem to bother him.
Enjoy her!
