how can I verify my secondary dns is just that ?

my co-location runs my secondary, well, is supposed to run my secondary.

is this the correct way to check it:

dig @secondarydns.com.au domain.tld ?

and, I should get NS/MX/A records listed ?

if I run this against my secondary DNS I get a response like:

; <<>> DiG 9.2.4 <<>> @xxxx.tld yyyyy.tld
