Hi everyone. I don't have a bearded dragon but want to get one now. However, at the end of the year at the Xmas holidays we are going on a holiday for 6 weeks. Is it ok to leave a bearded dragon at 5-6 months old with a friend and potentially part way through to the RSPCA or pet sitter as they may be going on a week holiday (not confirmed and still potential)? Will this add too much stress to the bearded dragon or if it has the same routines, food and terrarium and being with a person that they are used to (she is going to be there when we get him and visit a bunch) be ok? I want it to have a good experience of life but still want it now as opposed to 6 months later! Thanks for you support! Let me know what you think and if it will be ok!

Yes just have this person keep the same routine- if shes around a lot the dragon will become used to her in this time and its going to be months for this to happen so its a good idea he gets used to her being around and feeding him as well --
