Hi Lara, It is a awesome idea as I still sooooooo many Beadies on classified sites its scary. I am in the process of Building 3 cages to rescue some myself, but I always feel lost as there is so many that need good homes. Keep me posted as this topic is always on my mind. Cheers, Erick

Hi all, I am keen to build my own enclosure next as I have the handyman skills but I was wondering if anyone has attempted and has tips for building a 3 level enclosure? As in 3 seperate enclosures build in one cabinet. Thanks, Erick

I think I read anything from 60% and up is bad. We live in a very humid part of our country and our's hover around the 40-50% mark.

Hi all, Just an update, he hasn't coughed again since the last time. It's our cooler months at the moment so everyone in SA is reporting their Beadies are taking it slow. We have been feeding him some baby food (butternut flavour) mixed with calcium. I also bought some T-Rex bone aid as an...

Just to give an update, Sid is doing well. We very seldom see him eat but with the solid poops around the tank, he must be snacking when we not looking. He was extremely shy in the beginning, to the point where he would just go hide anywhere away from us and fall asleep there. So what I was...

They desert reptiles so they require the Reptisun 10.

Read this web article - http://www.uvguide.co.uk/compactlamps.htm Compacts have a burn in phase and initially can deliver something like 4x the required UV. So instead of having a glass of beer you having a glass of scotch.

Our Dentist breeds them and he was kind enough to let us adopt one of his babies. :blob8: :blob5: :blob8:

Our new buddy that arrived yesterday...

Well he is eating (when he does) and drinking fine. Bulb is 1 month old.

As per the original post: No waterfall, don't mist, he gets a bath at least once a week sometimes two. He does not appear sickly in fact he hasn't coughed since the last time, just lazy, so I just want to be safe. Runs around the flat and has good interaction with us. He is eating mainly...

Hi all, My boy (adult) gave three coughs about 3-4 weeks ago and I was concerned but I thought I will monitor. The other night he coughed twice again so I thought I will ask some advice. Anything I can check/do? It is our winter now here in South Africa so many people reporting theirs is...

Here is some more... He/She is so shy! I come home, it hears me coming in, take one look and bolts to a hiding spot. It also sleeps allot, hope that is ok. Anyone has a little baby? Some advice on getting them to be less shy? I try to pick him/her up once a day like I did with Steve my...

I think Sid is a Uromastyx acanthinurus. No its Steve's food bowl. Sid was in a breeding box briefly inside Steve's Viv while I setup Sid's Viv.

Well I hope it is, as I just got a baby Uromastyx and its little 2ft needs a bit more light and i was going to put a household compact in there as there is very little space left after the Reptisun 10 and Basking spot is in.

That is interesting as I was under the impression the normal household coils/compacts was fine to use as extra light. Is their frequency different to tubes?

I'm having a similar problem with my new viv but I think its lack of ventilation. I got 95-100 on the basking side and 80-85 on the cool side. I actually lowered my basking temp to try get the cool side down but it didn't help. I am going to drill two more round vents and see if it helps. Might...

Got my baby on Saturday. Man they small and he loves to hide in the strangest of places. Hopefully he will get use to his new tank soon.

I am interested in getting one too. I found this site with some good info: http://www.kingsnake.com/uromastyx/

Yip, my boy too!
