It’s about 12” from the top of her basking spot on that darker ceramic log. She gapes there so I think she’s getting warm enough. I’ll see what I can find that would make for better climbing and height. Thank you for the info.

So our tube light came today 12 uvb uva Arcadia prot5 25w. Here is a photo. I wrote temps on it as well for her enclosure. The 80 to the right is on a log that’s inclined up to her basking spot.

It’s solar glo 125w uvb uva heat ans light. The other long light arrives in a few days.

She had like 5 at one point. Before that I would only give her like one a day if she’s been picky with food. We are still waiting for her long light to get here. Hopefully by Monday. The multi use basking bulb/ basking spot is 101-103degrees the closer part to the light is in the low 80s, but...

We recently found out she really likes collard greens as long as they are pieces and not like turned into purée salad. Her poop is my next worry. Our area is on a big shortage and anything we have ordered or tried to order is low stock as well. We picked up some super worms, because she doesn’t...

I was told that they were put together accidentally while like cleaning or something, And a male got to her. The eggs she laid were fertilized. This is just what I was told my wife was the one that got her and went to pick her up from the family That gave her away.

The light we ordered is the 24” Arcadia Prot5 12% The light that is in there is a all in one uvb, uva, light and heat bulb by solar glo. 125w her basking spot seems okay she likes it up there on her ceramic log thing and will reach up and begin to gape. I also ordered the temp meter that you...

Hello all. We have had Leia for a week now, and we adopted her from a family that could no longer have her. Since then I’ve been researching just about everything I can about anything I might experience with her, so that I know that she’s in good health etc. note. She has had improper lighting...

We ate 4 pieces of collard greens today! I’ll take that as a win!

Well not to long ago she laid eggs. This was not to long before we took over for her original owner. My wife just measured her at 14”… apparently I fail pretty bad at guesstimating.

Will the 24” work? I believe her tank is 36 inches, and her basking light is probably 6” wide. Assuming both go on the same side of the tank width wise, if that makes sense. It would just sit on the mesh until I can make a new top…

I forgot to mention. I have the calcium powder for her crickets and stuff. What other supplements would you recommend? Thx!

I’m going to order that light asap. Thank you for the link. I also visited the dubia roach site and I’m going to get that order out on Saturday when I get paid. I have dubia roaches and crickets still in case she won’t eat greens still. Also I’m curious. Based on the picture what kind of...

Hello all! Well let me start off by saying my experience with animals is with dogs, but Leia here needed a home. Her original owner is having a baby and they need the space. So, being the animal lover I am, my wife and I became beardie parents. Now to say I research everything is an...
