I have a spiderwood branch in Figment's hab for basking, but of late he has stopped using it. He's hanging out in his hammock instead, and I don't think it's getting warm enough for him (but that's another post).
At any rate, I'd like to get him a proper basking platform sized for an adult beardie, so I won't have to replace it when he gets his full growth. Does anyone out there make good platforms I could buy? I ran a search on Google, and got mainly off-the-shelf platforms that don't look big enough and a lot of DIYs, and I am NOT a handy sort. I'd rather pay someone to make a proper platform for me.
The only thing that looked like it might work, though I worry about the weight in a glass hab, was a cinder block (single hole, not double) with three bricks to make steps to the top.
Could you kind folks show me what you use for a basking area in your dragon's home? Do you use just a rock, a piece of driftwood, or something fancier? Help!
Thanks - Karrie, I saw that branch when I was out shopping the other day, and now I'm kicking myself for not picking it up. I just remember wondering if it was big enough for a grown beardie. Brandon, do you think a rock big enough for an adult beardie would pose a danger of cracking the bottom of a glass tank? I noticed that you've got nice, durable wood habs for your babies.
Thank you---- he stands up on the floor and he lays on it from the other side w/ his head on the bottom part---- I have the same log in Blazes tank and hes utilizing it as well ---
