    Cage change causing brumation?

    Cleaning driftwood

    Hi, Anyone have some good tips on how to clean driftwood? I have a large log that the beardie loves to poop on. It's too big to put in the stove. I know some do that to clean. Any ideas?

    How long without feeding?

    So not quite the same as owning a snake... you cant leave beardies for long, but if I am out of town visiting relatives or on business, what is a safe amount of time the beardie can go without food? A weekend ok? Ideally yes it would get fed every day, and a neighbour could come feed it, but in...

    Yet another T5 UVB discussion...

    So... I got a T5 reptisun 48 inch light. It came with a 5.0 bulb. Several people have told me this is fine and others say go buy a 10.0. WHO IS RIGHT!?

    So my 2 month old suddenly has decided that he will bask for 20 minutes then run across the terrarium and hide in his hide for 20 mins and then repeat... All the temps are right, is this ok behavior? I heard sometimes babies need a reminder to bask, should I move him back to bask? Or is he just...

    Eats a few then loses interest....

    So my issue is that my 2 month old is not eating a lot. I dont put crickets in his terrarium because he can never find them and I dont want to spend 30 minutes trying to fish the extras out. So i feed him in a smaller terrarium, as to not scare him. He goes nuts and eats 5 crickets right away...
