Aww what a handsome guy! I have a zen wood panel habitat too and the same rock hut thing that your guy is sitting on. I am the same with going back and forth, so much info out there!

Thank you, good to know! I need to do some more reading on these forums. I may have to get the same with the halogen light then. I have my guy in a zen habitat so doesn't hold heat super well either but good because I've been having issues with too high humidity and has been better in this...

Thank you for the advice! I will look into getting those instead!

Thank you so much! I am going to replace it with zoo med repti basking bulb!

Thank you so much, & for your speedy reply! I will get rid of the bulb and get one of the ones that you suggested. I do have the digital probes set up at both ends! And thank you for the tip about setting it under the spot to check! :)

After switching to the 12% bulb and changing his set up around a bit so that his basking log is directly under and is lower than the hut I had, he is finally shedding!!!! I’m so so happy! I used an infrared gun to check the temp of his basking spot now with the lower log and it seems to only...

Thank you okay maybe I’ll switch to the 12% I bought one as backup so I’ll switch it out now.

Could someone please advise me on how to better set up my beardies enclosure. I have a Arcadia 14% bulb on the left & mega Ray mercury Vapor bulb. The small lamp next to it is not being used but is sitting on top. On the right is a regular uvb light but Vet tested its output and not giving much...

Hi I know this has been discussed in other threads but I’m still not sure what exactly could be going on for my Kava so I figured I would just ask. Here is a picture of his/her (vet still hasn’t been able to sex him yet) urate. It’s been like this past few poops. I posted here about his...

Thank you all so much!!!

Thank you so much!!! I will definitely cut back on the calcium and not put on all of them. I really appreciate the advice & tips! I just ordered the Arcadia pro t5 14% for his tank, do you think that would be good choice?

Thank you so much! I am going to check out the Arcadia bulbs and get one of those. Up until about a month ago I had this second light up on his tank but I was worried it was too much bc he started hiding under his hut a lot. The bulb in it is not a good one though it is thrive brand, I was using...

Hi friends!! I am a relatively new Beardie owner, as Kava (my beardie) is my first reptile. We got him back in March 23, 2021. We bought him at Petsmart (in retrospect I know, but we love him now anyway) and they told us he was about 8-12 weeks old. He was around 5 inches at the time. He was...
