Okie dokes, I've finally got the pictures up on Photobucket so I can post them now :D Here's a couple of Christmas photos: This was actually Christmas morning xD She's like, "Why are you awake?" Double sexy leg! I love this one too. Looks like she's praying before bed :] She loved the...

Hello everyone! Boy has it been a while since I last posted on here... Some personal stuff came up and I was in the hospital for a bit. Luckily though I'm working through it and keeping this positive in my life. Christmas was a lot of fun since I was a new pet parent to Dalia. I even got a...

Ok so a few weeks ago I had a bulb burn out on me. Instead of buying the same one that I got from the pet store I decided to look for cheaper options. People suggested to me to use flood bulbs, but I couldn't find the correct size that could provide the heat Dalia needed. So, long story short I...

Ok so Dalia has been sleeping in her cave for the past 4-5 days now. She will ocassionally dig or change positions, but again she's sleeping most of the time. Isn't it really early for her to brumate? I thought they usually go down in October or November for the winter? I'm just concerned...

This is a stretch, but your boy might be starting to Brumate. Dalia, my girl, is showing similar characteristics and I was told she might be starting to brumate. Only difference between your guy and my girl is that Dalia is probably around a year old and lately she's just been sleeping in her...

Omg...yes...yes... :lol:

Beardies can be odd creatures. But I agree that the dresser may be frightening him, if not I would have to say either ghosts or aliens lol

Oh my goodness! Our beardies must be sisters or distant cousins xD I swear Dalia has been acting like this and I was freaking out too. I was worried that she wasn't getting enough heat and food since she would spend all day in her cave and occasionally dig at the tiles. Good to know I'm not the...

sounds very interesting...I personally have not seen a ghost or experienced anything like this, but I believe animals can see and feel a lot more than we do in regards to the paranormal. However, on the other side of things, what exactly is he staring at? Could he see his own reflection at the...

That's awesome your girl got some TV time :] Sorry to hear about your leg, hope everything is ok when you go see the doc :/

GREAT NEWS EVERYONE!!!! apparently Lowe's sells heat bulbs and they're cheap! I got a 125 watt heat bulb that fits in my light fixture for only $3.57 :D Dalia really seems to like the new bulb since she's been out basking a lot more lately. I think she was spending so much time in her cave...

I got some 65 watt flood bulbs with a dimmer but last night they weren't getting to the temps I needed. Granted they were only on for about an hour before lights out, so I'll check today when I get home from work. For heat I have the ceramic heat emitter setup above the highest part of the log...

Yeah after doing some research I'm going to try using Flood light bulbs with a dimmer. You get more bulbs for the same price as one bulb at the pet store. I'll try that and if I can't get the right temps with the bulbs I'll bite the bullet and get another dumb overpriced bulb from Petco or Petsmart.

Yeah I actually use the ZooMed 100 too. I've returned it to petco in the past and told them the same thing. The box says its supposed to last 2000 hours but will barely last 2 months. ugh...I've also seen reviews saying the same problem we're having with the bulbs. If ZooMed doesn't already know...

Ok so it feels like the basking bulb that I use for Dalia only lasts about a couple months, maybe even less. I wanna say that the last bulb I got from Petco was a ZooMed 150 watt basking bulb. I swear that I've only had the bulb for a month or two. I could be wrong, but it seems like the...
