Baby beard dragon question?
i just got a baby beard dragon and i have 2 questions
1) i think he's in the region of 2 months old, so he's very small, how long will he last surrounded by a 20 gal tank before he's too big for it?
2) what are the best veggies/fruits for him?

He will grow out of it within about 6 months. Also to know is when he can't turn around in the tank i propose getting a 40 gallon tank. he will also need more powerful wat heat lights and bigger dooms. He will also start to not devour when his take gets to small. If his take is to small he will rub the tip of his antenna on the glass of the cage and get a unwary to prevent this get a bigger tank when he start changing surrounded by size.
I hope this helps!
I'd loose change it up for a larger one when he grows to 10 inches in length. The time it takes to grow that large vary, but I wouldn't count on having it any longer than a couple of months.
Here is a link that has a huge detail of veggies and fruits, color-coded by what is best to feed most often: http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.co...

Answers: 1) The 20 gallon tank should ultimate about 9-11 more months. Then you should get the biggest tank as possible, one that you can own in your place. 40-50 gallons are great.
2) NO ORANGES! Mustard or Collard greens are best. DO NOT FEED THEM ANY TYPE OF LETTUCE. Grapes, carrots, blueberries, raspberries are fine. They love strawberries. Make sure crickets and any other foods are no bigger than the space between their eyes.
my bearded dragon grow out of it contained by about 6 mth mybe a little less
iguana diets are worthy for bearded dragons.look it up on the web there is greatly of info on green iguana society.com
1---I would say that he can stay in the 20G until he is around 8-10 inches total from head to tail
2--he doesn't really eat any for about another 4 months.
consent to me suggest to you that you check out bluetongueskinks.com and look at the feeding charts that are in the assistance sheet, they work for other lizards as well. beardeddragon.org and bearded-dragons.com should also have a list of veggies/fruits that are virtuous for them.
he will have outgrown the tank when it become hard for him to turn around! most fruits and veggies will be fine for him!! stay away from really exotic fruits though!
