I wanted to elaborate a little about these toxic insects. If a beardie eats a spider or bee, it's usually not as much of a concern as if they are stung or bitten. We are 99% sure that one of our beardies was stung by a wasp which we found in the same room as her tank. She went into anaphylactic shock which was terrible to witness, she suffered terribly but at the time, we didn't know what the problem was. She passed at the vets office and after we brought her home, we discovered a red raised area on her back foot. She passed away within 12 hours and was completely healthy when she went to bed. This is the reason we wanted to get the word out so all of the owners can be vigilant in destroying any of these insects or bees right away.

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
