Hi. They are cute. Let stores rarely give correct information. Definitely get rid of that red light. If they told you that is a uvb light that is very wrong. You want a bright white basking light and a good uvb. The reptisun 10.0 long tube t5. Also you want 2 enclosures. Beardies should never be housed together. Also no heat source at night or light it disturbs their sleep.
We have the basking light and will be getting the better UVB lamp. Also we are going to be building them new enclosures, this was just a get them home and have somewhere they can go. I will get rid of the red light. I'm guessing the no light at night means the UVB should not be on 24/7. Thank you for the help
You are welcome 
I forgot to ask how you are taking the temps?
I forgot to ask how you are taking the temps?We only have 1 thermometer at the moment. The kind that sticks to the tank. The temp in there basking area reads between 100-110. They were bought as a present from his aunt, so I'm working on research and getting everything they need. My sons 5 so they are really mine to care for & his to pet and love on (supervised)lol
Yeah those stick on thermometer are very inaccurate. A temp gun or a digital with a wire probe. Glad you are doing research. Once you get everything you need to make a good home they will thrive.
