My temps recently where to hot for my little baby about 110 so I bought a lamp stand to make the temps drop(also got new basking platform). The temps now are 95 - 100 .is that a good basking temp for a 1 year old beardie? Because she still wont bask and only stays there for a minute when I move get there.

Generally you want the basking surface to be around 100-105 with a gradient to cooler areas. These should be adjusted to suit the individual dragon. If she isn't staying in the basking area then temps adjusted to be a little lower are fine. Her preferences may change though so if she starts basking a lot you may want to bump them back up a little.

Yeah that should be fine. Especially if you have a nice gradient down to 75-85 on the other side so she has plenty of choices.

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
