ok thanks, will keep an eye on it.

Thanks for the advice, what exactly am I looking for with checking his weight? Wouldn't it be normal if he loses some weight during this period?

This is the baking bulb I'm using (wattage says 80w in the packaging) : Amazon.co.uk This the UVB I'm using: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B089L6BNMK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The UVB is around 15inches away at the furthest point, if he climbs the basking decor...

So he's still wanting to just sleep, doesn't really have an appetite. He might eat one or two mouthfuls but doesn't seem hungry and general just wants to sleep. Temp in basking area reaches 39c by the end of the day, usually around 38c. Should I just leave him to burmate?

Hi sorry for the late reply. One correction I need to make My temps are between 33~35c on the basking area, not 27c as I mentioned earlier (I got confused). Here is the new setup, I didn't want to post the earlier ones because his enclosure was really small and I had to buy one from Amazon USA...

Noted thanks for the reply, I'm thinking of mixing it up with some school glue. I'll see what I can find.

Or can I just use some school glue to close the pores of the foam instead of grout?

So I'm building a basking deck and went to the DIY store to try and find some Grout. The only thing I could find was this which is used to cover holes in walls etc... Is this ok to use to cover my basking deck with before painting with acrylic paint? product ---> DryDex Dry Time Indicator...

what type of glue do you use to stick the pieces of foam together? Also what can you use to then paint/color the foam?

what kind of substrate are you using?

Thanks for the reply, will send some pics once I am back in town by next week. Right now the house maid is looking after him and after we left she told me he doesn't seem to want to eat and was hiding under the basking net, so I figured he's trying to Burmate.

Hi thats odd I thought it should have been anywhere from 25c~28c, thats what I remember the forum memebers told me it should be. With these basking temps he barley sits directly under the light, and I suspected it was too hot. I've had the Drago for around 4 months now.

Hi thak for the reply, my basking temps are 25~27c. Currently still waiting for my UVB long tube fixture, so currently no UVB light. Dragon is around 9~11 months I believe. Could someone recommend a good hiding decor fixture that he would be comfertable in?

So my berded dragon seems to want to hiebrnate, he hasn't been eating over the past few weeks and has been generlly grumpy. Should I switch of the lights to help him hibernate? because it seems like switching the lights on everyday makes him unsure wether he wants to hibernate or not? Also...

Thanks for the advice, yes I am also getting 4 digital thermometers with the lights to measure accuratly.
