They always need to be kept in a cage unless your handling them.I answered your other question, so check it out. To refer to someone else's answer.

Never feed mealworms. They have a hard exo skeleton and high amount of chitin in their shells that are hard for beardies to digest.

Why did you make a new question? You can edit/add to your previous question.

Read up on some caresheets and than feel free to ask away.

40gallon breeder tank or similar homemade or bigger is recommended for an adult bearded dragon.

Bearded Dragons are between 40 and 80 dollars. They grow to a length of 20 inches. I would recommend a 50 gallon tank for an adult and a 15-20 gallon tank for a young bearded dragon.

Feeding Breaded Dragons

There are many food sources they can thrive on, but you have to have a variety in their diet. The commercially- bred house crickets (Acheta Domestica), Mealworms (Tenebro Molitor), King mealworms (Zophobas morio), and pinky mice. All these food items can be obtained from your local pet store or online.

The vegetation is also a good part in there diet. I have a type of vegetation in there cage all the time. But make sure it is cut up in small strips. The one vegetation you should not feed them is iceberg lettuce because it will give them diarrhea. In iceberg lettuce there is no nutrition at all. They benefit by eating dark, leafy greens such as collard greens, kale, red-tipped leaf lettuce, mustard greens, hibiscus flowers and finely chopped or grated vegetables.
