    New owner! baby 4 inch translucent tiger (picture heavy)

    Instead of raising his basking spot I decided to change it altogether :lol: I went to the store and got a couple more things for him to climb on. With this set up he can hang out at the hottest area which is between 102 and 106 similar to what I had before. I measured the top of his head...

    Thanks for that quote! Yeah the temps range between 100 and 106 usually. That's with both the 75 watt and the 50 watt above the basking spot. Temps won't be an issue though -- I know I can keep those in check if I raise his basking spot. I'm mainly just concerned with the UVB. I'll try to play...

    Thank you! Yeah I made sure to do a lot of research and get his home set-up as best as I could before he arrived. You're right there is almost a foot of distance to the UVB lamp. It's about 10 and 1/2 inches between his basking spot and the reptisun. I measured the UVB today with a Solarmeter...

    UVB Lighting Help - Between 40-45 uw/cm^2?

    Hey all, I have a baby beardie he's about three or four weeks old. I have him housed in a 40 gallon enclosure. On top of the enclosure I have a 36 inch T8 terrarium hood with a Reptisun 10.0 tube for UVB. I measured the UVB levels in my enclosure with a Solarmeter 6.2 and tested out different...

    Yeah Blood Bank Dragons have some really nice colors and patterns! I've decided to call him Rocko. Looks like he's still stressed out. He has some black circles on his belly and the majority of his belly is black. He's eating on average five or six repti-worms per day. I chopped up some collard...

    I took him out again for some handling time. The longer I spent with him the more comfortable he was. He eventually started crawling towards me and across my leg, as well as my hands/arms. He also started licking me! Not sure if he just smells something he likes or what? :lol: Thanks for the...

    Earlier when I was handling him he was skittish on and off. He would stay in my hands with his side towards me. He would look up at me and close the eye that was facing me . I've read that baby dragons who close their eye closest to you are stressed and don't want to see you? When I let him...

    Thanks for the kind words! He's a cute little guy. Should I be handling him or mostly leaving him to himself for the next couple weeks? I don't know if handling him more often now will help him get used to me or stress him out. This youtube video from a breeder says handling them a bit more...

    Hey everyone! I just got my bearded dragon today from Blood Bank Dragons. Just wanted to say hello and get some feedback about whether the set-up I have is proper. He's a four inch baby translucent tiger. I haven't decided on a name yet... maybe Nikolai? I'll include some pictures below. I have...
