yea long wire, he is about 3 now.

i have a few, the main 2 i use are digital ones (exo terra i think) and the other one i just put in the shade is a dial one. His masking temp on the log was 35-37.

Thanks for your help, my temps are now spot on :D

The uvb should be inside the viv, I'm fairly sure that the screen filters out the uv rays but someone will correct me if I'm wrong. The humidity sounds good. So other than the uvb which hopefully someone will clarify on I think everything looks great.

Your tank looks great! :D I bet she loves it in there! As long as the temperatures are all fine which they are there isn't anything wrong that I can see. just make sure her uvb bulb is good and the humidity is correct and she's having a great time. The sand could be a cause for concern if she is...

Your temps all seem fine and I cant find anything wrong there. When did you last replace the uvb bulb and can he get within 10 inches of it. Sounds like you are treating him well and doing everything you can so I think that its just him getting older. Let me know if there's anything else I can...

The main thing to consider is that temperatures are correct, could you let me know these please. Also how are you measuring them? Bearded dragons do tend to slow down as they get older sadly, my beardie is also 3 and he is the same so I sympathise with you, it's sad to see them like that when...

I got Lennie out his cage put him on the floor and closed up his viv, when I turned round he was eating a huge wasp that had landed in front of him, he licked his lips and carried on as normal. It made me a bit worried for a while.

I would say that stormy is a male, it looks like he has 2 pronounced lumps whereas on toothless I cant see 2 so I would say female

I recently changed my cage around and have been checking his temperatures. I have a book called the bearded dragon mini encyclopaedia, in there it says that the temperature under the heat lamp but at ground level should be 45 Celsius (113 Fahrenheit) but after looking on here people say 37...

yea, sometimes more than others, his eyes are always open in the day but sometimes he puts his head on the log and other times he holds it up, maybe later at night he might start to sleep and close his eyes just before the lights go out.

It's crossed my mind about brumation, I got him this time last year and I put down that it was just brumation and the stress of moving but as the winter went and summer came he didn't really change, he improved a bit as I said before but not like some you see on youtube that run around. He is...

Thanks for the reply, lots of useful information. The bulb runs the length of the tank, its 42'' long and is in the middle (front to back) I was thinking it could be on its way out so that's why I ordered a new one to be on the safe side. Its a 12% uvb T8 I think, its the fatter tube out of the...

Thanks so much Taterbug, I wont bother with a female, I will get another beardie in a separate viv if I get one. The set up is good, he eats about 8 adult locusts a week on average but have tried to get him to eat more greens but he isn't having any of it unless I force them but he never...

Thanks for your help, I might give up on this idea then. lots of people seem to put more than one in a vivarium and even reptile shops have said it is ok to do so with a male and female, they said that a male would make my beardie become more active and that he is lazy because he is lonely? I...

Hi, so basicly I have a 2 year old male beardie, I have always wanted more than one but don't want the expense. I was wondering if I could get a female and put them in in same vivarium, the viv is 4x2x2 but I want to build a bigger one eventually. The problem is that i don't want the babies, is...

Ok I will try doing that with him, thanks for your help. :)

should i bath him more often or leeve him in longer?

He did shed a bit round his eyes and mouth a couple of months back but nothing more than that, I guess its a slow process. Thanks for the help :D
