Roughly 6 inches, as you recommended

Yes. I have placed it over his basking site, I am just unable to place it inside the enclosure, which would take care of it being ineffective. Would having both of my bulbs on help or am I better off having just one on? The other bulb I currently own is a compact 10.0 uvb coil.

We ordered a Reptisun terrarium hood and we believed it would come with the bulb we needed (the 10.0 uvb high output). It came with a much weaker bulb, so we are in the process of finding the bulb we need. We had to drive an hour + away to the nearest pet stores and none of them have t5 bulbs...

Ok thank you! I read somewhere that they need 10mL of liquid water everyday, so I just wanted to see. I think some people get dragons mixed up with other reptiles or animals that intake water from their vents, but who knows! Thank you!

Is there an easy way to supply water? My baby will only drink from the dropper after a few minutes of holding it out in front of him. He will only drink a little of it before he runs off. He has a bowl that he never drinks from (it raises the humidity, so I might take it out). He rarely drinks...

The sad thing is, they all say they have beardies. Before going to PetSmart (we got there because crickets are cheaper), we were looking at the beardie supplies at Petco. We asked for a heating pad because our house gets around 50 or less degrees at night and we were afraid of the effects on...

Ok thank you! Yes I was going to bring a small blanket so he could ride in my lap and look out the window. Should be fun. I can't wait until hes big enough where I can put him in a leash so that he can go out with us at rest stops!

I would just like to know if a trip would be possible for my baby. We would be driving around 12 hours away. I am not worried about the car ride, as he is very calm when handled and just relaxes. I do have a container for him to go in with a few hides, so he would not be handled the entire ride...

I will. I just wanted to make sure. I feel terrible for the beardies brought into situations like these and for the people who rely primarily on pet stores for information on caring for these creatures.

I went to a PetSmart and they told me I was feeding my baby too much. I said I fed mine around 50 a day, and they were like “woah! That’s way too much!” They kept saying he only needed a few a day, and proceeded to tell me that they feed theirs once a day and will give them about 5 crickets. I...

My baby beardie (around 3 months of age) has been refusing to eat for the past couple of days. He’s been eating great the last few weeks, but starting the day before yesterday, he hasn’t wanted to eat. I’ve fed him as much as he will eat, which is 6 crickets a day. Today he only ate around 6 and...

I recently shipped crickets in and there were quite a few of these tiny worms that came with them. The company has said that all insects they ship are feeders, but I can’t find any info on what these might be and if it’s safe to feed them to my beardie. They are around 1 cm right now and seems...

I just purchased a baby (2 mo) from PetSmart a little over a week ago. He adjusted really nicely and was very healthy up until two or three days ago. He stopped eating and moving, so I was really worried about him. I noticed his tail had started to blacken. From the start, his tail did look a...
