Alright, so here's the deal, my beardie is a little over 2 months old, Im going to be leaving tonight around 7pm or so and won't be back until mid day tomorrow, should I just leave his basking light on the whole time? I dont have a timer. Or is it important enough for me to go get a timer before I leave

Just turn it off right before you go, and on again when you get home. That should be fine. Beardie will get a little extra sleep.

I got my timer box at Lowes for around $12. It's in the same spot at Lowes or Home Depot by the light bulbs. You'll find that it really helps to buy one so they wake and go to sleep at the same time every day and you don't have to worry about being there to turn the lights on. :) We do 14 hours of light in the summer and 12 hours for winter.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
