Dart is 8 months old, her nails scratch my hand when I hold her, but nails are so tiny and long.

Yes. If her nails start to scratch you when you Handle her you should trim them. Some say 2-3 times a year and some don’t do it at all. It depends on the dragon! Do not cut them to short.
I’ve never cut mine before because he is only 3 weeks old but if it gets to the point when she scratches you and it hurts you then cut them! If you have any more questions ask me!
