My baby Beardie tore her tank up!

Yes. Our temperatures right now is 79 almost 80 here I think. I put her on a leash and I walk her around and she stays in my sight and I hang on to the leash the whole time and we hangout outside for a good 30 mins and she loves it.

that is great that is going to help a lot w/ the UVB she needs --- but you still need to get the 13 watt replaced --- it will do no good for anything except get your dragon sick --- and that you dont want --

My dad is willing to get the new light tomorrow morning along with her daily crickets

Make sure it's what I posted most pet stores only carry the T 8's-- you want a 10.0 T 5 bulb - I would also look at getting her on dubia roaches they are going to be cheaper buying on line than getting insects from the petstores- if your interested I can post info for you and your dad- pet stores are not reliable in the winter - people had a lot of issues getting them last winter- dubias also last longer and easy to keep

Alright! My dad last night just said that we should try dubia roaches tomorrow and see how she reacts to them. my dad just got home with a 10.0 T 5 bulb so My dad says that we should be good other than swapping her tank from a 25 to a 75 in a couple of months. Hazel is currently eating her dubias and she likes them.

Ok so did he get the fixture for the T 5 bulb ? Please show me what you have--

I went to put the leaves back in place and she sqwealed at me. I didn't do anything to hurt her but us there anything I could do?

She "squealed" at you because it took her a long time to get them just the way she wanted them. That was a lot of work, !!!

 

[Hazel_Basil10]

Yeah. I will have to get it from my dad but right now I can't show anything becuz I need to do some things before I do that

 

[KarrieRee]

Ok I am going to help you get it correctly set up for your tank please let me know so I can help you

 

[Hazel_Basil10]

Okay!

 

[Hazel_Basil10]

Sounds good

 

[Hazel_Basil10]

Okay. So when my dad went to buy it, he actually bought the exact same one as our old one:/ he said that he is not going to go back to exchange it until tomorrow because he drove out far(at least that's what he told me) I'm trying to get him to go back and get the right bulb but he is not going to do it.

Show him the bulb and fixture that is needed so he doesn't make the same mistake again. I know petsmart sells the Arcadia fixture and bulbs now but it will probably be cheaper and easier to order them online.

Edited to add:
This is the Arcadia fixture that a lot of people recommend and it also comes with the 12% uvb bulb. My petsmart carries it but yours may not.

 

[Hazel_Basil10]

Okay. I just turned it off so that way it doesn't harm her anymore. But will it be warm enough? Or do I need to still keep it on until tomorrow?

 

[Hazel_Basil10]

I don't think my PetSmart carries it.
