    Substrate???

    Hey everyone! Been a while since I've got on here. I just bought Mirage a new tank and I'm looking into getting a new substrate. I'm trying to decide if I'm going to stick with the slate tile or switch to a loose substrate so he can dig. I've been reading about it and I keep seeing things...

    Wood chips or shelf liner?!

    I took out my bearded dragons wood chips as they were getting really dirty. I have roughly cleaned his enclosure but will deep clean it once his enclosure cleaning spray arrives.

    Tiles cause issues?

    I have had my bearded dragon since August, and he is THRIVING! I love him so much! So I was asking in a Facebook group about something unrelated and it came up that my beardie is on tiles. I use slate tiles for his flooring. I LOVE them! I spot clean as needed, they retain just the right bit of...

    Non adhesive shelf liner smelling weird

    I just switched the substrate for my bearded dragon to non adhesive shelf liner. It smells very slightly chemically. I have to put my nose right on to it to smell it. Is this okay? It's new. Any responses are appreciated.
