Hi there,

Not sure what the cost is for A 40 breeder, but 10" seems a little small for a 7 month old..To help her shed, give her lots of warm soaks, and mist her once or twice a day, or you could try "shed ease".
Staple food for her would be crickets, lobster roaches, or silk worms. Supers you can feed but if she’s only 10 inches i would wait until she is bigger, and do not make them her main food...NEVER feed meals, they have a har chitin shell which beardies cannot digest..go to beautiful dragons.com, and click on nutrition content, there is a great list of greens there she should be getting every day, as well as insects...I would still offer her live feeders 2 x a day, as much as she can eat, in a 10-15 min period...What uvb do you have for her and do you offer supliments on her food? What are her temps and what do you measure them with?

Nancy.

To answer question #1, $77.95 sounds like a pretty good price to me. My 40 gal. tank cost me $90.
