    First Time Beardie Mom!

    Okay still waiting for my BSFL order. Just got a notification that it shipped out. Got the bowl in and filed it with a ton of dubias while I was away at work and when I got home he had eaten absolutely all of them! I’m so excited! He looks absolutely gorged. I’ve never seen him with such a...

    First Time Beardie Mom!

    Okay I just ordered the BSFL and those bowls are GENUIS ordered one of those too! The bowl I have works 90% of the time but I still get paranoid and check the cage when I get home from work. I’ve never once seen him ever drink so I mostly bath him because I read that they can hydrate through...

    Okay so update on the little girl/guy. So First I’ll start with the lighting situation. For UVB I’m using the Reptisun T8 10.0 and it’s installed inside the terrarium. It’s approximately 7 inches from the basking spot. The dome on top is a basking bulb 150w. I have the basking spot measuring in...

    It’s a reptisun 10.0 T 8 and I’m using a ceramic 150 for heat. I have the stick one that I’ve put on the bottom because they came with the tank but I also have a heat gun that I’ve been using. When I put it to his basking area it fluctuates between 108-112.

    First Time Beardie Mom!

    So I stumbled onto a little Beardie this past week. I accompanied my brother to Petsmart for an upgraded enclosure for his gecko on Black Friday. While he was mulling over his options I started looking around at the reptiles. When I got to the Bearded Dragons I noticed there was one laying on...
