    Glass surfing troubleshooting

    So, plot twist…when I was at Petco getting a probe thermometer I (on a whim) grabbed fake hanging take plants because I’ve tried everything else so, why not? I put them up and checked on her for a few hours, left her basking and when I got home she’s IN the plants 🥴 Like, jumped, climbed up and...

    Glass surfing troubleshooting

    Thank you for tagging!! All I’ve been doing is reading other posts about this and I’d give anything to have it be an easy fix but when I go down the “probable causes” list nothing jumps out. Her tank isn’t dirty, it’s not too small, she’s not housed with other dragons, no other animals in this...

    Glass surfing troubleshooting

    She’s been glass surfing since the day we got her. At first when I looked into it I chalked it up to relocation stress but it’s never stopped- are some dragons just naturally anxious? Her stress marks come and go. She’s NEVER hissed, puffed up or black bearded at us. She just seems like she’s...

    Glass surfing troubleshooting

    I will look into the probes, I thought the IR gun was a good choice but now I’m questioning it. Tank is not next to a window and we have a background on 3 sides. She is tiny for her age (currently at the tail end of pinworm/coccidia treatment). She’s never had a huge appetite (at least, from...

    Glass surfing troubleshooting

    This was supposed to be my 13 year old dragon and we all know how that goes 🙄 so now I’m absolutely obsessed with her but she’s making my already high anxiety higher. Sheesh! I will take your recommendations, thank you! I’ve read they’re already sensitive to change so I can only image the stress...

    Glass surfing troubleshooting

    Thank you for your reply! I’m at a complete loss. The paper was on the inside. She was doing a solid amount of basking the past few weeks but the past few days she will bask for a bit then go back to pacing. We have one item in her enclosure now that is the same as she had at petsmart (and she...

    Coccidia steam cleaning question

    Thank you for your reply! When using F10 to deal with coccidia what dilution do you use? I saw a few options and want to make sure I’m not going overboard- I think the one I was going to use is 1:125

    Coccidia steam cleaning question

    We are about to start treatment for coccidia (have already started pinworm treatment) and I was curious if anyone knows how long you need to hold the steam over a specific area to kill sanitize from coccidia. I’ve tried googling it but I cannot find any info stating how long a specific area must...

    Enclosure check/feedback please

    I will never stop worrying about this dragon 🤣 She was supposed to be my 13 year olds but once we adopted her and she ended up not really thriving I’ve become her main caretaker and have fallen absolutely in love with her. Isn’t that always how it happens? Thank you SO much for replying and...

    Enclosure check/feedback please

    Asking for more feedback! I purchased her the Arcadia ProT5 UVB kit 12% 24 watt. Currently having it diagonally across our wide hole mesh lid which puts it at 9” directly over her basking spot. I know mesh decreases UVB but since this is a stronger bulb should I leave it on top of the mesh lid...

    Enclosure check/feedback please

    Thanks for replying! Our T8 was purchased in January. If we go the T5 Arcadia & 12% output will that go on top of the mesh lid? From my understanding, T5’s go over the mesh but T8’s go under- am I correct in this? We went with the Reptisun 10.0 T8 because it sounded like that was a safe choice...
