My uncle found a bearded sand king dragon, in an abandoned house. Obviously, the lizard was neglected. Anyway, my uncle left it here. The question is, Is my setup good? I'm going on what my uncle said, because he's like a reptile, God.

My lizard is 15 inches long

HERES MY SETUP:

20 gallon Tank.

Zilla, sand

2 by 3 inch water bowl

2 hides one on hot side one on shady side.

99 Degree heat rock 24 hours

Food bowl, goodies

ZILLA, 250 Watt day bulb 15 hours

Sills, 150 Watt night bulb 10 hours

Feed once a month.

Hampsters, Ginny Pigs, or Shrimp.

Dried fruits.

My uncle said to put pressure on its back legs for 10-25 seconds a day till I can sex it. He said that if its a male its belly will turn Red.

If its a female its belly will turn purple and it will bleed from its nostrils.

Is this correct? this is the way its been for months and its doing okay.. The only thing that is wrong with the dragon is it walks kinda funny... the dragon must of got hurt over night.. im sure it will heal up. anyway,I still have tried severale times sexing it and my uncle says its too young.
