I have been using a repti glo 10.0 UVB fluorescent tube for about a year and a zoo med focused basking light lamp which was replaced recently in a 55 gallon tank with tiles as the substrate. My lights are on an automatic timer that switches the lights on for cycles of 11 hours then off for 13.
The basking spot where the basking light is pointed at is about 98 degrees, the other cooler side is about 78 degrees.
I got these readings through the a digital thermometer's probe attachment.
The Hydrometer measures around 35 in the day and 50 at night.
My bearded dragon is approaching 2 years old, I recently fed him silk works, but I normally feed him a bag of crickets (about 50 mediums but he probably only eats 70% of that) every week dusted with:
Fluker CALCIUM-PHOSPHORUS 2:1 Mix 4 oz.
Fluker Labs REPTA-VITAMIN 1.5 oz
I have a worm dish with large mealworms which are also dusted with the above, but he rarely eats these.
I also put various dark green vegetable leaves every other day but he doesn't eat a lot of that, just a leaf or two.
I mist him daily and give him baths every week and a half, his poo looks fine, not runny or anything, makes a nice swirl sometimes.
There was a long period where he didn't shed at all, about half a year. When he does shed, it's only random body parts. Now there is some shed in his ear hole that I'm reluctant to touch because I read it might cause a great deal of pain.
Any idea what is causing the head trembles???
