Exo-terra products

[newtobeardeddragons]

Have any of you had any experience with exo-terra products, specifically bulbs, readymade foods and supplements? I've heard both good and bad about them but i wanna clear it out. I mainly have exo-terra in the shops near my area and i wanna know if i should keep buying their products or go the extra mile and pay $30+ for shipping.

Exo-Terra is pretty decent. I prefer Zoomed for calcium supplements and buy Herpivite for vitamins.

We have some exo-terra dome light fixtures and no issues, as well as dishes and hides.

I like exoterra hardware well enough (tanks, fixtures etc)
I don't see anything wrong with their supplements, they should be fine if it's easiest to get.
With the exception of the SunRay (metal halide) I haven't heard their uvb bulbs are particularly good. I stick with reptisun tubes.
I have only used the dry pellets,mi dint care for them and neither dragon touched them. Packaged food has more grain in it that's I care for so I havn't tried their other options.

I agree with this, the MH bulbs are alright if you want to go that route but reptisun tubes for uvb are my favorite as well.

That is super awesome as well. In the Summer we took Mungi out for real sun as too =). But now it's sooooo cold brrrrr lol.


Props on doing the best for your beardies :mrgreen: seen to many owners who just don't care. These forums make me happy in comparison .

I use exo Terra products. Their supplements my lizards don't seem to mind. I've used their uvb bulbs when I was in a bind. I monitored them everyday and watched how they were doing. The supplements I was using before my uromastyx and bearded dragon wouldn't touch. They avoided the food until I bought exo terra.

Currently I'm using one of their Feeding Rock's so my DIO can get a bit more of a "natural" hunt. So far he/she seems to be really enjoying it!
