Thank you for all of your help and advice. Going to try to find the new light fixture and bulb today without having to order. Waiting to hear back to see if the new vet I found in that link you provided is able to see him today or tomorrow.

His temps were getting kind of low because the room I have him in is large and a bit cooler than the rest of the house. They were bordering around 60-65. He seems to sleep a lot deeper and better with the CHE. I only use it at night and turn it off when I turn his lights on in the morning at...

Thank you so much! I will get him the fixture and bulb immediately and have already started working on a new vet. Unfortunately the cost of the first one was wasted am praying I find one that truly understands bearded dragon care and cares about helping me get him well again. I miss him being...

Thank you.... am really confused though.... the vet was who I listened to (and she was volunteering there from a big city but it was painfully obvious that she was not well versed in bearded dragon care.) I have found a vet in Hot Springs, AR about 45 minutes from me and am working on trying to...

As a new member, I think this is a splendid idea! (y) I spent a good part of my initial post typing all of that information instead of what I was truly needing to discuss.

Yes that is what the vet handed to me and told me to buy for him. I inquired about getting a longer tube light like I had been reading about but then she told me that too much UV can make them sick so now I'm more confused than ever about his UV light. :(

Here are the pics of his setup and lighting. Setup is 40 gal front open breeder tank. Lighting originally was Reptisun dual dome with the UV and heat bulb that Petco suggested when I bought him. CHE and individual dome added 3 weeks ago for extra heat at night. Lighting changed to Zoo Med 100w...

Yes, they talked me into the kit when I got him and told me that it was plenty sufficient for the 40 gal tank. Through research and lots of reading I found out that it was not enough heat or UV. I posted pics of his tank as well as added all the information about his setup in the post I made.

I added information about the visit. Was very disappointing and left me even more scared and confused.

Hello, I have a juvenile male beardie approx 6-7 months of age with weight of about 210g at vet visit last week. Diet: Primarily dusted superworms and crickets. Very picky and will only eat a few shredded carrots and flower blossoms as far as vegetation goes but still continue to offer greens...

@KarrieRee Apologies, I'm new to this site/forum. I will start a new thread and provide everything you've asked for.

Following because I’m also dealing with this. Well over 400$ in vet charges and X-rays for vet to basically tell me nothing and do nothing and my beardie seems to jot be improving at all. :( I’m frustrated and not sure what to do when the vet doesn’t even seem to know what she’s talking about...
