    sand for substrate?

    Yeah,sorry i didn't mean slate exclusively, any type of tiles work well.What i do is i usually try to scrape the feces off with paper towel,then run them under hot water and scrub them with warm vinegar-water, vinegar works great for cleaning,no chemicals and the smell leaves quickly.

    Hey guys!

    The first thing that jumped out at me was the fact that u feed him only twice a week?although u give him more than he needs,try to keep the crickets in a container with holes and spread them out,10-15 a day would be much better than 2 large feedings, and mealworms are not an ideal source of...

    sand for substrate?

    If you want to switch substrates i recommend switching to slate tiles,they are amazingly easy to clean, and also if u introduce sand as a new substrate they will eat it,and most likely get impacted,some people have no issues if there beardies always been on sand but its still a large risk b/c it...

    Beardie hasnt shed in a long time

    The light times are fine,mine are on from 7am-9pm, as for the arrangement, i don't think you need to move the cave either b/c she probably just likes the option of colling down while she's lieing under the heat,she could be brumating but i really don't know b/c my beardie hasn't brumated yet :P

    Beardie hasnt shed in a long time

    Mostly likely means there cold,or just trying to keep warm,they absorb more heat that way or something,idk my beardies that colour in the morning till he heats up,or sometimes when i take him out of his cage.

    Brand New Baby and I'm Clueless

    well you should invest in a thermometer,the ones with the temp probe are best,put it on his basking rock and if the temp is under 100 degrees f i would move it closer,and you will definatley need a bigger tank very soon, they grow fast when there small!

    Brand New Baby and I'm Clueless

    If your light is a foot above the top of the tank thats not good,it should be on top of the cage or slightly above so as not to burn anything,but 66 is fine for night time,make sure the lights are off at night,never get a red "night" lamp or anything that says they cant see it,they can and it'll...

    How long in the bath?

    Luke warm,i tend to heat mine up a little warmer so that it stays warmer longer,you don't want it to be to hot,and your beardie will most likely flare up if it's to hot :P

    new parent!

    Oh ok i see what you mean,no that shouldn't be a problem,they dont throw around too much weight but to be sure try and balance it like 3" on the back 3" on the front you know? and for lights you need to get the tube bulbs for uvb always,b/c they cover the entire cage,you dont have to get the...

    is this normal?

    Well the ideal amount would be at least once a week,when they are shedding every few days is nice b/c it helps them shed better, but they can go a long time without one,but i wouldn't let it go past 2 weeks,when i put zilla in the bath he puffs up,sits in the water for about 10 minutes then...
