So its time to replace my beardies uvb bulb and I found out that my local petsmart (the only place to find the reptisun 10.0 ) discontinued the product. I searched everywhere but I cant seem to find someone in Puerto Rico that sells that darn uvb bulb. I tried contacting several companies to see...

I wouldn't even consider handling Crested Geckos a whole lot other than taking him out for cage cleaning as they are more of a display animal.

Pretty much this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QX0n42CtHy8

Right now I'm using alfalfa pellets for my roaches with water crystals and whatever leftover veggies my BD leaves. Its cheap so it works for me. I also read somewhere that some guy tested a colony for a couple months with dog/cat food and water crystals and another with alfalfa pellets and...

You can feed phoenix worms as a staple. I feed mine superworms as staple and I personally feed him no more than 5 a day. Also I feed a bowl full of endive and escarole daily (I don't have access to collard or mustards).

Practically any mix of anything marked as a staple on http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html is a good recipe. I personally vary between collard greens, escarole, endive and butternut squash since those are the only greens I have access to.

No more than 50 per week. Also you want them to be no bigger than the size between your dragons eyes.

If its an adult you shouldn't be feeding so many crickets a week. He should be eating around 50 crickets a week so 7-8 crickets plus a salad a day should work better. As for the Phoenix you can feed around 60-65 large worms a week. You only need to dust multivitamin 2 times a week.

Although lettuce has no nutritional contents, its good for beardies if they are dehydrated or impacted since its mostly water, so I wouldn't say to never feed them lettuce.

You can put a piece of carrot in one side of the enclosure so if any uneaten cricket gets hungry, they will eat that instead of nipping off your dragon.

My dragon is in that same exo terra viv that you bought but I had to make some tweaks to it starting by taking out the background because my dragon kept jumping on it and I was afraid he could get hurt by falling or getting to close to the basking bulb and burning himself and I also wanted to...

I'm a little confused on buying basking bulbs since where I live its really hard to find bright white flood lights. Should this be a good bulb to use...

I have that exo terra with slate tiles and I had to cut about 1 1/2 inch for it to fit in and out perfectly :) hope this helps

What about geckos? They dont eat as much as bds so you wouldnt need to keep many bugs. Phoenix worms dont need feeding and last a good while if kept in the right temps and they dont need cleaning like pretty much every other feeder.

Read a couple threads on the feeders forum and browse the for sale forum, theres lots of people selling startup kits.
