I know that cedars and pines are toxic to Bearded Dragons, but I cannot find anything anywhere to indicate fir wood is or is not safe. Would anyone happen to know?

I have my eye on a specific rabbit hutch that would make an excellent platform for our beardie's new habitat, but I don't want to put him in anything that could harm him.

This is the specific one I am considering:

Pros/cons?

Wow that looks really awsome! For $109 it's defiantly a steal! I haven't heard anything about fir being bad for them just pine and cedar and really sappy trees because the sap will heat up and be toxic I believe but I'm no expert. What's the dimensions on that enclosure? I'm jealous because I spent alot more money building mine lol. Like that it has 2 floors, top and bottom and a built in hide already will make it nice for a heat gradient. I'd def buy it!

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!
