 My new dragon

Hi I have 4 iguanas, 2 beardies, 1 MHD, 2 anoles, and 2 house geckos. I had three water dragons until recently which I loved VERY much, but sadly they passed away last night from an accidental dog attack when the door to the lizard room was left open (I was absolutely devestated when I received the call while i was at work!)

but on a better note my bf who felt terrible about the situation went to the pet store to get another dragon ( he thought that would make me feel better, and while i love dragons i wasnt sure that going out to get another right away was the best thing, but it was his way of making it up to me) when he got to the pet store they did not have any WD’s so he bought a MHD

he is a little over 8.5" long I was not able to tell the sex though I was hoping to be able to post a pic soon to see what others thought about that. he seems to be in good health and doing very well!

as far as my meat eating lizards go, i was wanting to know how many crickets per day each lizard should be fed (i usually switch and do worms one day and crickets the other to get some veriety in) I know what they all eat I was just hoping for some answers on how much per day exactly they should be getting because i am going to try to buy my crickets online now because it is alot cheaper than the pet store and i just want to figure out how much i should get for now and how often i will need to buy in the future.

anyways thanks alot! I appreciate you help and information =)

thank you very much for the response! i knew the beardies ate alot!! i have had them about 3 months and they are probably between 3 and 4 months. and as far as if i get another water dragon how much should they eat per day? my older male Drake would eat about 6-10 a day (unless there were mealworms id have to take him out so the little ones could eat, he LOVED meal worms!!) and my two little ones ate mostly between 5-8 a day is this about right? they were all big healthy and hearty!!! =)

Feed all of ur animals as much as they can eat in 15 minutes. Most of the time my MHD will only eat every other day and then it’s like 10-15 crix. Beardies are bout 50-100 small, and i dont know about the others.
