Is this normal

If you still using that red bulb please get rid of it -- it will cause eye damage and it disrupts their sleep -- you want a solid clear bright white basking bulb -- NO colored lights of any kind No off white or yellowish bulb or daytime bulbs those have a coating on them that harms the dragons eyes ---- example of what you want are Fluker basking --- Arcadia Halogen or Exo Terra Intense

Would you say an Arcadia floodlight would be good?

The next time I go to the pet store I’ll be getting all the correct bulbs

I would go w/ a halogen but a flood light will work

Are these good? Sorry for so many questions. These are the main ones my pet store sells.

Super cute baby, colors definitely change as they age. I got my new baby thr day after Christmas this past year and he was super dark. Now he's very light and mostly orange. The last two I had changed a bunch as they grew, one even had an orange beard when he would show it! They're all special and yours looks healthy at least! Heat and proper lighting are of utmost importance. I cannot stress that enough for a new parent. We're here, take the advice and feel free to ask for help!

[Hazelthebeardeddragon]

I got a 100 watt bulb and it only reaches 94.1 heat. I need it to reach 105. The package says it can reach that but it hasn’t

 

[Hazelthebeardeddragon]

That's it just make sure you get correct wattage

Should I put it in my dome rated for 60w or keep it in my bigger dome rated for 150w
