It depends on his age, younger beardies (2-4 months) should be fed 3-5 times daily. Dragons between 4 and 8 months of age can be fed 2 to 3 daily and dragons aged 8 months and older can be fed once daily. It is best to let them "warm up" in the morning before offering food but you can feed them at any time that is convenient for you. Make sure you are consistent in your feeding times and your beardie will learn to anticipate it.
