    reducing ambient temp

    Hey all! It's been awhile since I posted, but everything has been going great with Markuu until now. The issue I'm having atm, is that he hasn't pooped in a few days. The weather we've had has raised his temps considerably, so I'm swapping out the basking bulb for a lower wattage one, but is it...

    Enough to have a successful Dubia colony

    So I have finally decided to take the plunge and attempt to breed my own Dubia's. I actually thought I could afford just buying them when needed. HA! yeah right lol. My current setup is a 20 gallon tank, a 100 watt CHE and 5 egg flats. I ordered a large colony starter kit from Dubi deli and it...

    Forgot minor detail when constructing custom enclosure

    Hey all! I just now realized (1 month after constructing the cage) that I didn't seal the 2 sides, back and top of the cage! I did seal the bottom with mod podge and then laid some paper towels down and added tiles on top. Would it be ok to have Maarku sleep in a bin for a night while I seal the...

    LED 65 watt floodlight (pic included)

    I'm wandering if u can use a 65 watt LED Daylight floodlight for general lighting? It won't be used for basking but for more of a brighter/natural lighting. Here is a pic :

    Styrofoam insulation

    I recent got my beardie in the mail and I noticed the insulation was 1" thick styrofoam. I have 4 pieces that are 12"x17". My question is, if I make just simple steps and ledges do I really have to grout it, or can I use textured spray paint and use multiple layers (5-6) of mod podge to seal it...

    GE 100% clear silicone II for gutters and flashing

    Have any of you guys used this before? I went and bought some slate tile so I can make a custom basking spot, but I forgot to get the silicone. I ended up finding this stuff around the house and I'm hoping that I can use so I don't have to make another trip lol.

    attaching metal hinges to plexiglass

    I am currently in the process of reconstructing my door on my enclosure and I want it to be a full plexiglass door with no frame. I'll be using 1/4" plexiglass with 3 small brass hinges. I'm wandering if I can use gorilla glue to attach the hinges to the plastic. Anyone have advice or luck with...

    Not sure if shedding or a mistake/bad husbandry on my end

    I recently bought a bearded dragon from Pet Supplies Plus (It's been roughly a week). It's a translucent and 5.5 inches. I built a custom enclosure for it that is 4'x2'x18" along with a 65watt halogen flood light for basking, which gets too about 109, a 24" reptisun 10.0 that sits right...

    New Beardie :)

    Hey all :)! I recently purchased my 2nd bearded dragon about 1 week ago. I had one in the past but only for a couple weeks and it eventually died literally the day after the return policy ended (long story with an upsetting ending :/ ). But anyway, I just finished her custom enclosure and got...

    Thoughts on changing a certain cage feature

    Ok, so I finished building my 4x2x2 enclosure, but since it is done I'm not sure I really like the hinged doors on top. I currently have my basking bulb hooked up to the top left door but I'm really starting to think I should just go with an all screen top. Do you guys think this will be fine or...

    Water proofing inside wood enclosure

    Hello folks :) I just got my first beardie about 1 month ago and as of right now he's stuck in a 20 gallon tank :( but I'm currently in the process of building a 48"x24"x24" enclosure. I have already layed the tile and sealed it but my concern is whether I should seal the inside of the tank...
