Floor Temperature

I built my boys beardy a new cage and I’m trying to figure out a couple of things. I’ve ordered some temperature gauges so I can better see how the environment is but my concern right now is if the floor under the heat lamp is getting too hot for her. The basking area is right around 100-110 degrees. Once I get the other temp gauges in I’ll be able to get reads on other areas.

I have attached pictures of the cage.

How are you getting that temp? Older dragons like 95-100- that's w/ a digital probe thermometer-

I have an analog temp gauge, I have ordered a couple digital probe. This was my wife and sons adventure and I am just now getting involved. Her previous enclosure wasn’t that big and just awkward to take care of.

You could get a light fixture
Fixture stand
You could also get one that's smaller than the one I posted.
I have one that goes under the tank and it's much smaller than the one I posted.

Beautiful enclosure by the way!

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
