Okay, after weeks of vigorous research, I have a few questions. I've read several care sheets including the one here and bought "the bearded dragon manual" by the herpetoculture library. Found some conflicting info like the recommendation of hot rocks in the book(big no no, I've heard already).
Let me start with what I'm planning so far. I have a 40 gallon(3'x1') heat lamp, basking tree, more to get.
What are important things to know, what not to do, etc.
On to the questions:
I'd like to get a baby, but I'm worried about the brumation period and early stage care.
I'd like to get playsand but will start off on paper towels.
Male or female?
Once s/he comfortable, how often can I take him out to play.
I know it's a lot so ill stop for now. I'm just concerned about raising a healthy and happy dragon.
