You can try making a bunch of rock hides/caves, and check them all at night. Beardies love to hide when the sun goes down and the temp starts to drop.

It could be worse, you could live in a not so friendly climate. In AZ, I'd say the toughest challenge would be him finding edible fruits & veggies. I'm in So Cal, and I've had a few reptiles escape, but I eventually found them. A month ago I found a columbian boa in my backyard. Turned out to be...

After the final cement I will airbrush, then a little drybrush for highlighting. But I want to keep as much rough texture as possible, so it files Zeek's nails down. Then finishing touches like stones, plants, etc. I have 4 aquariums running, with another 3 that are empty and full of misc...

I put my beardie in a small 10g tank to eat his crickets. They hide too much in his 60g home, and he seems content with letting them stay rent free. It solved it for me.

Looks a lot like Zeek with his patterns. Definitely nothing wrong with being a norm. :-)

You can blackout the sides of their new tank that face each other. They'll still be very aware of the other beardie, but at least they won't see each other. I would say 80% of people getting rid of animals is simply from neglect, and no longer wanting the responsibility. It doesn't help when...
