This past weekend I went to a reptile show and saw the cutest baby beardie. We ended up bringing him home. My question now is, how often should he be eating and what should his appetite be like? I think I've seen him eat 2 crix. They were in the dish with him one second and the next time I looked they were gone. He's about 4" total, lives in a 20 gallon long tank, has a 5.0 bulb, and a basking spot of about 100 degrees. Should I be moving him to a smaller container to eat? He doesnt seem to get all of the crix, and I'm not sure if he is eating them or if they are hiding in the grapevine in his cage.

Please let me know what you think.
