    False brumation or something?

    How Hot Should Your Bearded Dragon Tank Be?

    You need to outfit your tank with a thermometer. Ideally, you should have two. Place one thermometer on either side of the tank (cool and hot sides) in order to get a complete picture of the environment in the tank. The thermometers should be placed in the middle of the tank’s height. Note that...

    Legit baffled here

    So, I’m confused abit here and having some trouble. I have one of these damn tall tanks (24”) and having an issue to get the proper basking temp. The basking lamp is 100W and gets between 93°F-97°F. It would be warmer for him if the little guy would lay on the hammocks, but he insists on the...

    Sick Beardie Night Temperatures

    Hi everyone! My beardie has follicular stasis, and my vet has recommended that I keep night time temperatures the same as daytime - around 37 degrees Celcius. However, everything I have seen has said not to do this, so if anyone has any opinions that would be very helpful. I am seeing the vet...

    Issue keeping ambient temps

    I am having a light issue keeping my ambient temperature for my juvi/baby bearded dragon warm enough during the day without using a CHE centered about in the middle of the tank. The highest ambient temp I have gotten on my warm side is about 86 using a 100 watt CHE. My basking temp surfaces...
