Housing for a baby Bearded Dragon should be around a ten gallon. In a larger tank they can get lost, forgetting where their basking spots, etc are. For a juvenile housing size should probably be the same as an adults, minimum 40 gallon breeder (36"x18"x16").

As far as humidity, it's important that it isn't too high. Levels of around 30% are fine. I do recommend misting your Bearded Dragon twice to three times weekly, it helps with hydration. Also, soaking once a week will also be great. It's true that most Bearded Dragon won't drink from standing water, which is where the misting/soakings help. I find when you are misting, if you take a syringe and drip it on their mouth, it will teach them to drink from that. That way you can better manage keeping them hydrated. You can add a water dish though, it never hurts. Some of them will naturally soak/drink from them, you never know .

I've never heard of mealwoms chewing through their stomachs. I have heard of them being not quiet ideal as far as what's best for your Beardie though. Their meat to carapace ratio is horrible, sometimes causing impactions in the animals.

You should provide Bearded Dragons with a daily salad. The best greens are Collard, Turnip and Mustard Greens. You can include foods like Squash and Dandelion Greens on occasion too.

Here is an awesome nutrition chart for Bearded Dragons. http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtrem...Nutrition.html

As far as insects, I feed my Beardie Lobster roaches no wider than the width between his eyes. Otherwise impaction problems can occur. Feed them their salad and insects daily.

Baby Beardies should get calcium supplement daily and vitamin supplement 4-5 times a week. As they age, less supplement is required. Adults require calcium 4-5 times a week and multi-vitamins 2-3 times a week. I use the multi-vitamin "Dragon Dust" and the calcium supplement "Rep-cal" it is w/D3 and phosphorus free.

Light cycles should be 12/12. A Reptile Glo 8.0 or Repti-sun 10.0. Basking spot should be 95-105, the other end of the tank 75-85. Dragons have to have a basking spot at least at around 95 or higher, they require temperatures of 95 give or take to digest their food.
