Hi Karrie, I am reading the packaging for the fluorescent bulb now and it says it is the Reptisun 10.0 UVB 18” 457 mm 15 watts T8. So I believe you’re correct! What would be the optimal bulb to get this guy? Price is not an issue. I want to get what is best for him. I’ll be headed to the pet...

Hey Brandon, I updated with pictures. We’ve had him since July. We have him in a 40 gallon breeder, a ReptiSun 10.0 fluorescent tube, and a basking bulb. Because we got him on short notice, our fluorescent tube doesn’t span the cage. So we have a another coil UVB which is what the larger dome...

Hi everyone, I acquired a bearded dragon from a friend who was unable to care for him a few months ago. I believe he is between 12-18 months of age. For the past few days, I have noticed he’s been eating less, hiding, and even sleeping during daylight hours. After some research, I believe this...

I told her about all of the issues with her tank set up and she basically said that she was aware it wasn’t where it needed to be but she was trying her best :/ It’s definitely a sad situation, he seems to be much happier now. I’m glad that it’s a normal shed! I have a two chameleons, a...

We got him yesterday and he has refused food since then. His owners mom (who was caring for him for the past week) told me he hasn’t been eating. We are still offering food, so far we have offered live crickets, live mealworms, spring mix, and dandelion greens. We offered these in small...

Thank you for the info! I wasn’t aware that a normal household bulb was okay for a basking bulb! We use an infrared thermometer gun with a laser guide. Underneath the household bulb in the basking area, the thermometer was reading 82°F. I have a red mali uromastyx :) I will definitely post in...

Hi everyone, I recently took in a bearded dragon from a friend who is going through a hard time and needed me to take her bearded dragon in for a while. I personally have 2 chameleons, 2 pacman frogs, and a uromastyx- so I am very familiar with reptile care. When I went to get the bearded...
