You may have luck taking her out of her viv at night a little after lights out. Have something soft, I use a pair of shorts, about half an hour after lights outs, gently take her out, wrap her up in the blanket/shorts/whatever, and take her with you to watch TV or use the computer. Make sure...
Thorough tank cleaning requires some time on my part too. Luckily I have backups of almost everything in the viv, so when its cleaning time, I just take out the old, give the viv a good wipe with hot water and diluted vinegar (1 part vinegar to 15 parts water), then wipe down the viv multiple...
I purchased the tiles, took them home, realized they didn't fit, went back to Lowes to customer service (not necessary), they called the flooring department, a man there asked what I wanted and took me back to a wet saw, where he cut the tiles. $.25 a cut though...
I too looked into getting a...
Looks great! I am sure you and leela will love it!
If you don't mind me asking, how did you rig up the dremel to cut tile, especially slate? How did it work out? The tile looks like it was cut clean, but you can't really see the edges on the right in the picture. I had the same problem with...
I can assure you that switching to roaches will be one of the smartest moves you can make when feeding beardies.
I would check out all of your options, I don't want to alienate any of the great dubia suppliers on this forum. Usually, adult females alone cost around $.75. Some sellers offer...
From the picture posted and your description of tone irregularities, I can almost guarantee you have nothing to worry about. Anecdotally, my little guy sheds in sections (head, body, limbs, tail) in a different order each time. Slight color changes at a young age are nothing to worry about, Zeus...
You can also use branches, hides, fake rock, or build a basking spot to add vertical space to your viv. My beardie loves to climb, I use multiple pieces of driftwood stacked (securely) on one another to allow him to bask at an appropriate distance from the UVB bulb. The driftwood also allows for...
Yes, that will be much more accurate, yet still affordable. You can do us all a favor and place the probe of said thermometer next to the stick on thermometer and take a picture after 45 minutes.
While on the petmountain website, I suggest picking up a reptiSUN 10.0 UVB bulb, it is affordable...
Step 1: Turn off red light.
Step 2: Wait 10 minutes
Step 3: While waiting, go to where your family keeps extra light bulbs.
Step 4: Pick up light bulb, look at the writing, choose a 60 watt light bulb, if you don't have that, find 40 watt or 75 watt. If no light bulbs available, go to a lamp in...
FaunaClassifieds have a few sellers willing to ship a variety of order sizes... I would search for "cactus" to look through your options, but here are two that I found.

I'm sorry to inconvenience you again, but you want the ReptiSUN 10.0, not the ReptiGLO... Petsmart should stock both.
You will want to monitor the temperature of the basking spot. Either move the thermo you have to where he basks, taking note of the high and low temperature for the day, or...
Just keep looking around the forums and don't be afraid to google search.
