hello all im new to lizard caring and i just got my frilled neck about 6 days ago
i named him freddie after freddie mercury
he hatched in november so he is 3-4 months old
now ive got a few questions.

he always on branches and never comes down to the substrate (i made it from news paper) is it normal?
also i read u shud feed him twice a day.. mine eats only once a day sometimes even though im trying to feed him twice
sometimes he eats 1 time and about 4-5 young roaches is it normal also?

the temps in basking point are 90-100F cool side have 70-80F
in the evening its also like 65-80F humind is always at 70-90%

btw when i try to hold him he dosnt frills dont hiss he just calmly let me grab him and hold him so i guess this is good.

my questions are:
how can i make him go down a bit from the branches to his water bowl and to the plate with the branches?
is his feeding times and amount are normal?
and i bought him a UV light of 5.0 shud i replace it to 10.0?

here is a few pics from his day 1 in his new home
