Hello everyone, I don't have my beardie yet as I want to make sure his home is set up and running how it's supposed to. I have been reading a lot here and educating my self as this will be my first BD. However I am a bit OCD when it comes to my pets, I consider them my children lol and constantly run things through my head. My first concern is with this rockwall I made out of Styrofoam and grout! It has a high platform near the basking spot that is 9" off the ground. My concern is that he might be lazy to crawl back where he came from and just jump off. If that were the case can he get hurt? I don't know if I'll be getting a baby, juvenile, or adult yet.
My other question is in regards to my building materials, I used polyblend grout, old Styrofoam from power tool boxes, loctite power grab, glue gun, and mode podge. Are any of those things toxic?
Here is my set up:
40 gal breader tank from petco
24" reptisun t5 high output
8.5 reptisun dome for basking bulb
A CHE in case temp get below 75 at night
As for sustrate, I am thinking a reptile carpet
Let me know if there's anything of concern here, I am mainly worried about him jumpin off his high basking spot, not sure if a 9" fall is of any worry with beardies. Sorry I am new to the site and still haven't learned to upload pics.
