Sure thing! I don’t keep a thermometer in there, but I use a probe thermometer. Temps are usually just below 100 degrees F in the day and around 70 at night when lights are off. I’ve had him since March of 2020, and he usually is active besides the couple times a year he brumates. He does it...

Thank you!

I just tried to give him some water, but he wasn’t interested. He did drink a good amount the day before yesterday.

Also, I just vacuumed out his tank, changed out his carpet, and bathed him today to make sure everything is super clean for him.

Thanks so much for the info. I use a repti carpet. He has never, ever had any other kind of substrate (i’m a little crazy about that). He passed more and it had more powder inside the poop. I’m so confused. He drinks water from a spray bottle (the vet has tried to have me leave water in there...

Hi all, I have a 4 year old bearded dragon. He has been sleeping for a month or so, and I have been under the impression that he’s been brumating. I know this is a somewhat controversial topic here, but he does it every year and I have consulted with several vets who have told me to leave him...

Thank you so much! I will go grab some of those!

Thank you so much for your thorough response! I have not been monitoring his weight, but I am definitely going to take your advice. I have a small update which is that today his behavior was very different from what he has shown me the last few weeks. He walked into the basking area and even ate...

The UVB is a T5 HO 10.0 UVB and the screen is a finer mesh - I have been working on figuring out another solution where I can hang the lights. I can't seem to find a wide hole top anywhere, as I have heard that concern elsewhere throughout this site too. I know this needs to be changed, but I...

Thank you for your reply, Karrie! Both the UVB and the heat lamp are less than one month old and sit on top of the tank. I use a 150W bulb for heat and take temperatures using a probe thermometer. It usually sits at about 95 degrees Fahrenheit, which I know some say is low, but my vet is very...

Hi all - I am posting about my 20(ish) month old bearded dragon Felix. I got him as a hatchling at the end of March 2020, and he is most definitely a boy. For the sake of time, I am going to spare the tank details (I have posted on multiple occasions and is tank has been deemed acceptable and...

Absolutely! I will post an update tomorrow.
