Hi. He is adorable I see you have a red light. If you're using it for a basking light, you need to replace it with a bright white basking light. Those red bulbs make your beardie disoriented. If you are using it at night those disturb their sleep. Basically they are junk.

I agree that ditching the red light will make him a much happier/stress-free beardie (the red light can interfere with their sleep and a neon red light is very unnatural for these animals). For UV lighting make sure you have a Reptisun T5 or Arcadia tube light and that his basking light temperatures are taken with a digital thermometer for accuracy. He’s very cute and has a very personable face.

oh I did not know red lights were not okay as a second basking light. I just changed it to a 100w white light. Thanks for the info!!
