first of all, you want to coat in increasingly thicker layers of grout. The first one should be like olive oil, the second a bit more solid, the third even more so and the fourth and final layer should have about the consistency of toothpaste. Secondly, if you put pressure on it on a small...

any arguments to back that up? People are allways scared of sand as if putting your beardie on sand is like instantly killing them. It poses a risk, and so does loam, as it consists out of sand and clay. I can't really see how loam can be bad for bd's. - It packs down really hard, so it's less...

YKYLWB when the ENTER key on your keyboard isn't working anymore and you take it off to discover a waxworm has crawled underneath and made its cocoon... ...when your fiancee steps into the room, shouts "eeeeeeeeeeeew a worm!" when she sees an escaped waxworm and runs back out. ...when your...

Time for an update! my guy has grown quite a bit: He's now nearly 21" at 9 months and 530grams. For comparisson: Daku at 2 months (the tiney head on the left side on the platform): Daku at 8 months: His viv was really getting too messy and too small to my likings, so I completely...

I used an old narrow leather belt. 1) Cut 2 rectangles out which fit his front legs, so about 1"x1/2" and about 1.5" apart 2) Cut the piece of the belt to the correct length to fit around your beardie, leaving about 1" overlap 3) drill 2 small holes in the overlapping part of the belt (in each...

lots of paper towels, mild alcoholic solution and patience :p I'm going to strip this entire build apart in a few days, and make a complete new backwall for it. Gonna try and make it as authentic as I can get it to be!

chances are that I'm doing a road trip across the USA next year. Otherwise it'd be rather hard since thats about 3000 miles away... but thanks for the compliments :D

raw tomato in small quantities every now and then is ok. It's just a bit on the high side in oxalates, but nowhere near the amount found in spinach for instance. Just don't overdo them... It's a bit like beer, You really like it, but you should keep quantities down because it's not that good...

I thinks it's length (55") and width (just under 19.5") are the bare minimum for such an active creature. He can run the length of the tank in under 2 seconds... built it myself from the ground up: viewtopic.php?f=75&t=112749

my tank is a 110gal :D and my beardie is already 17.3" at age 4 months, so I wouldn't be surprised if he hit the 23" mark :D

2 inches a week? you mean a month I suppose? if she's been growing 2" a week the last month, that would mean she's 23" at 4 months!

things that form pests, like redrunners :p

my little Daku is hardcore, he likes black :D , the tables his viv is on, my sweater, my laptop bag, the couch,... as long as it's black it'll do. and red, especially if its tomato or the orange/reddish grasshoppers :D

YKYLWBW your not-so-keen-on-reptiles girlfriend comes home from work, completely ignores you and goes "how's our little baby doing" while running for Daku's tank. YKYLWBW that same gf no longer insists on you spending the evening with her as long as she can cuddle your beardie to sleep YKYLWBW...

I disagree. It might be just my luck, but my beardie is in a tank 1.4x0.5x0.6m (55"x20"x29"). I got him at 2 months old, 9.8" long and 43 grams he's now 4 months old, 17.3" and 250+ grams Compared to all other beardies on local forums, he is HUGE, but also has the biggest floor space per...

Daku the day we got him (20th September 2009 , just under 2 months old) Daku this week, taken 19th November, just under 4 months old my "little" guy is now 235-240grams (empty belly, otherwise 255-260) and 17.1" long :D

YKYLWBW everyone comes to visit your new house, and they all DEMAND to get "the grand tour" , yet none of them are even the slightest bit interested in seeing the basement. Because they all know that's where my roach breeding bin is :D YKYLWLW your OH who originally hated the idea of a lizard...

It looks great! But am I correct that you're installing a CHE under the left structure? Because the topside will probably melt! It might even catch fire! CHE's easily reach 200°F+ temps on their surface! Even if you've lined it with wood, it will pass through alot of heat, melting your foam...

I can assure you the roach wasn't laughing! I shredded it in half with my ferocious bite! Best regards, Daku

naptime: lunchtime: what's that over there? yummy roaches! attaaaaaack! being a lazy dragon in the weirdest places:
