You should be fine....you have a hot spot and a cool spot. You do have alot of bulbs, but the temps are good. One day invest in a critter condo. 2 bulbs are all you use. temps always stay perfect. but your setup is good to go now. Middle tanks temps are fine, the dragon will find where its comfy.

Ok first how long did you wait between testing bulbs. Heat will take a while to change. I'm using a 50w bulb at about 12 inches away and I get a constant reading of 108 degrees. I would change bulbs and wait about 2 hours before retesting the temps. Test at full brightness. You may have to lower...

i would clean out the cage with a bleach / water solution. Then, ditch the fake leaves and any other decorations that were in there.

Hey annie, sometimes it takes a week or so for the dragon to really get "used" to its new home. as they get more comfy with the new home they eat more. As for your flood light, your okay. For a basking spot any light will do, the temp is the important part. Your temps seem good also. Just give...

A tempgun can go right through the screen. There is a max distance but i dont remember what it is.

I dont think air circulation will be a problem. I think the 14 inches wide will be more of an issue later down the road. As for decorations...keep it simple. I used newspaper as substrate, easy to change out and keep clean. I used a basking rock, and a nice branch, and thats about it. Lighting...

Your temp sensor should be directly under the light. I would suggest investing in a temp gun. Its about 25 bucks and is by far the best way to check your temps. Also, since your using a screen top alot of your heat is going to escape. So you will probably need to keep using that other 150 watt...

She was a lady I bought my first dragon from years ago. Since then she has stopped breading. She always had some nice dragons. Thanks for all your help.

She is doing quite well. Eating alot and relaxing. Her nose has healed nicely so far, looks much better anyways. Neosporin works great. Her nails will just grow out in time. Might you be the same Tracie as Tracie's Beardies?

They are infertile eggs as she has not yet been bred. Also her nails are really short now I would assume this is normal also. Thanks for your help

My first female, and first time i have had eggs. They are infertile but still exciting. 23 eggs were laid. Her nose is rubbed a little raw, is this normal and what if anything do i need to do to help it heal?

First time posting here, This is also the first time I have had eggs laid. She just finished and I have put her in to take a bath right now. BUt i noticed her nose is a little raw. Is this normal from all the digging? Also, is there somethign i should put on it or just make sure ot keep it...
