I have a all living things terrarium 40 gallon with a very small bowl of water in it I have a 30” uvb light strip and a zoomed 100w basking bulb in the lamp and some how the humidity stays at 48-50% and I’m not sure what to do to lower it I’m going to try a different thermometer just in case but any suggestions would be nice and she also keeps pushing her beard out and in every so often but it seems to be just swallowing her owner also said it was normal but just want to make sure it has nothing to do with the humidity

Hi 
unless your beardie drinks from the water bowl its not super essential, and removing it may help lower the humidity. I got mine from 45% to 35% by using a small 'bead' dehumidifier like this

I got 2 for £1 from pound land just put it somewhere in the tank your beardie can't get to (I put a small shelf at the top) and it should hopefully help

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!
