Hi there,

Can you post up a picture of where you are placing the probe?
The placement of the probe is very important.

I find it hard to believe that with a 150 watt those are the temps you are getting. I have a bulb that its half the wattage of yours and it gets temps up to 120!

Thats why I am asking for a picture of where you are placing the probe, to make sure you are placing it in the most accurate spot.

Let me correct this, Im using 100 watt now And temps are taken on the ground under the light, 85, on the wood at the highest point is 110, and the cool side where his water is is 75.
Sorry for the confusion. :lol:

The red heat lamp is no longer used.

Hi there,

I still would like to see a picture if you dont mind?
It would help clear up some confusion on my part, lol!

Glad that you got rid of the red bulb though.

You should also remove the water. That could create dangerous humidity levels for him as well.

Sorry,

I really am not trying to be confusing I meant could you take a picture with the probe in the picture where you are placing it please?
Did you have to tape the probe where you circled the picture?

-Brandon

 

[CWB]

No tape, just left it there for 30 minutes.

 

[Claudiusx]

Well I hope you were able to actually get the digital with probe.

I would hate to think that you are cooking your dragon because you didn't get one.
I would assume if you had one that you wouldn't be trying to avoid taking a picture of it in your tank...

Did I take the temps in the correct spots? also how many crickets should a beardie of his size be eating per day.

 

[Claudiusx]

Did I take the temps in the correct spots?

Hi there,

This is why I am asking for a picture with the probe in the picture of where its resting, so we can know.

At your dragons age, you should be feeding it 2-3 times a day, as many crickets as it can eat in a 10-15 minute time span. This can equal upwards of 50 crickets.
