Hey there, I ordered some silk worms and concerned if they end up turning into a moth. I live in ontario and would like to know if its safe to release them if they end up going through their metamorphosis.

No, never release any animal into the wild. You can feed the moths to your dragon, they aren't very big.
Silk moths don't have any mouth parts and never eat.

They hatch, mate and die, all in about 3 days. If your dragon won't eat them, you can just pop them in the freezer overnight then dispose of them.

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
