[QUOTE="hdochow, post: 2038170, member: 110661"] welcome to the forum and the life of being a beardie owner! looking at your profile, you're off to a great start. your uvb is good, although it may need to be changed depending on how old the bulb is. you will need a couple of digital probe thermometers. the type you mentioned are inadequate. because of how you are reading, your temps are probably off. lights and temp are the most critical things for your dragon's health. you're going to want to remove that red bulb and get a bright white basking bulb. i'll post some links for the probes, the basking bulb i use (although wattage will depend on the environment you have your enclosure in), a link for types of fresh food, and one that lists vets that you can search for by your area. you'll want to provide salads every day. what types of insects are you feeding? and what type of supplements are you providing? I know it can be overwhelming in the beginning, but once these things get dialed in it gets easier. and be prepared to worry like crazy! these little scaly butts love to stress us out. but that's ok, it just shows we care. feel free to post with any concerns/questions you have. we are all here to help every dragon live it's best life.
