[QUOTE="xp29, post: 2025562, member: 114539"] Karrieree can help you tremendously with lights, please follow her advice. I'll go over hydration a bit 🙂. You will see tons of info says soaks in a bath or misting hydrates them. This couldn't be farther from the truth. They absolutely have to take water orally to be hydrated. You can rinse his greens before serving them (if he eats them consistently) some foods help also. What I've found that works the best is using an eyedropper to drip it on their snout. Your beardie should start lapping it on his on, it may take a few minutes before he realizes it's water and good. Go slow at his pace so you don't aspirate him. If he won't drink you can try adding a little none citrus fruit juice or punch to give it flavor. Be sure to use a wet cloth to wipe away any that runs down his chin. No need to take a chance on causing bacteria or fungus in his scales. Of course if he drinks from a bowl (be far most never will) that's fine, if he drinks in a bath thats ok but to many baths can cause problems also so the eyedropper is better. [/QUOTE]
