Hello,
I have a 4-5 month old beardie and all has been going well but as the temperatures have dropped I have needed to get him a higher wattage basking bulb. His temperatures are fine but I fear that his basking spot may be too hot and burning him. I got him one of those fake branches and it seems to get very hot to the touch. He also has a little climbing vine that is getting to small for him but doesn't get as hot so he seems to like it more. I tried putting the vine over the branch to see if that makes it more comfortable but he still won't bask there. I just wanted to know if anyone had any ideas of how to make his basking experience more enjoyable. Thanks
