I was never aware of that! I’ll be sure to look into it. For the breeder tank, considering it’s an aquarium, should I put netting over it as well?

Follow up question! So for the hood I’m getting the reptisun t8 5.0 18” uv? I was wondering how I may mount it? The description for the bulb says it may be placed at a distance up to twelve inches but as far I’m aware t8 is weaker and 12 in is the requirement for t5? I need to mount it within...

Ok, thank you for the help. I’ll be sure to monitor him for signs of stress or discomfort, again thank you for the advice!

I’m in cali for June and will be in az (where the 50 gal is) from July up to December generally. But I’ll get the uv for the 20 here, and see if that helps. I forgot to mention he is an adult and around 3 years old. I’ll monitor him between trips, considering he doesn’t hide in his hides often...

I unfortunately cant do much about moving in between, I generally have him in a carrier in my lap for the trips so he’s not stuffed in the back of a car entirely. I will be sure to get the new uvb though, thank you for the help. He is also 18 in long so maybe the 20 gal is okay for temp stays...

Yes please! With this is there anything else I can do? Anything that may cause appetite loss, considering the az cage had adequate lighting and uvb?

Apologies for such late reply. So he has two cages because we travel between ax and cali. His main one in az is a 50 gallon. The temps are 90-95 throughout the day, thanks to an 150 watt. Kept at 70s during the night. He has the long fluorescent, I thinks it’s desert brand? Now the other one...

Hello I was wondering if 1/4 a teaspoon of multivitamin once or twice per week is good enough? Along with half a 1/4 teaspoon of calcium each day. I took Damien to a vet recently due to seeing weight loss. She said he was in the skinnier side and that gut loading and ensuring he gets the right...

Thank you so much, I’ve been using Josh frogs but shipping can take a bit and these feeders seem to have more focus on roaches in general. And yes the nutrition sheet I’d appreciate very much!

Alright I’ll be sure to get the Dubai colony up and running asap, and see if maybe I can grab something like hornworms in the meantime. Thank you for the help! I really appreciate and am hoping to get Damien back normal soon

Also just a note he’s not really eating them in terms of lunging at them like a normal beardie does. He did a couple of times when feeding them to him if it was a new insects like when I introduced canned cockroaches. But most of the time he’ll lick at it and in the moment I’ll sorta slide it...

Okay thank you! I’ve been doing canned foos for variety since last mid last year. My parents didn’t like the smell of the mealworms and crickets. But I broke through to them that Dubai roaches (in which I was unaware of that they were the best feeder to have!) are less hassle. Should i continue...

My bearded drgaon Damien hasn’t been doing well, losing wieght since late June? And lack of appetite in which I think may just be not much reaction to canned foods in which I’m about ready to set up a Dubai roach farm in 2 weeks. I gave him some flukers appetite stimulant right before feeding...

Yes of course! His name is Damien. These are from the last couple of weeks. His fat pads don’t seem too bad if only a little squishy and small. It’s been getting more and more concerning. I’ve notice this bad weight loss since late June. Also in 2022 of February before all this I undergone...

It’s just his appetite, I feel it may be partly food boredom. I’ve been feeding him a variety of canned food for the past year. But I think it may just be the food not moving that’s causing this. I have proper lighting with him getting uva and uvb and a basking light. And I got superworms and...

My beardie has been losing a bit of weight (weighed him today and he was 358 but his waste just looks a little boney), Anyways I’m going to start flukers reptiboost, I have been feeding him canned mealworms but I’m about 2 weeks till the prep work will be done to start a Dubai roach colony. I’m...
