Wait you have to seal plywood! Me and my dad built a cage with plywood (which took forever) and we only sealed the cracks and stuff like that.

Ideally.
But I've seen a few breeders who don't either.

I've not seen any scientific proof, but the theory is that the adhesives holding the sheets together could potentially off gas, especially in a heated environment.
And also that pine is toxic to dragons (in what dose/ duration who knows) and since plywood is typically made from pine sheets, it makes sense to seal.

Sealing it can also help provide protection against moisture and extend the life of the enclosure.

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.

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
