hello i recently added a new member to my little family hes is so cute i named him titan
i wanted to see if anybody had any advice im new to this.

oh wow hes great looking who did you purchase him from and how old adn youll probably learn everything you need to know by just looking around the forum just make sure hes getting lots of calcium and teh proper lighting and heat in a decent cage and it should thrive

Welcome!!! Titan is a cutie How old is he? Is he a leatherback?

Like alivia said, take a look around the forum. There are a lot of subjects that we have talked about and could possibly help you out.

My advice would be to not use sand or any kind of loose substrate. You can use non-adhesive shelf liner (I use this), paper towel, or tile.

If you need any ideas on what to feed him you can go here http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/Nutrition.html . They have almost everything on there and it will tell you what is safe and isn't.

Oh, and I really suggest housing beardies seperate. There are a lot of bad stories about beardies harming or killing the other beardies that were living in the same viv with them. Please don't take that risk.
