Making bedroom hot

Status
Not open for further replies.
I have a bearded dragon in my bedroom and it’s the only place I’m allowed to have it. My room is constantly hot and is about to get hotter as I’m getting a second bearded dragon in two days. Is there any way to cool down my bedroom or different lids I can buy or something? Anything? They have screen lids on the tanks and the temps are right for the tank. My room is too hot lol. Thanks for the help

The best thing might be to use fans to increase the airflow around the room. If the room is getting hotter, is the tank temp getting hotter as well? You may be able to use lower wattage bulbs if you are achieving proper surface temperatures.

Exactly what do you mean by too hot , what temperatures are you seeing in the bedroom and when ?
What I consider nice , a person who lives in the UK would literally be passing out in as it's warmer than they are acclimatised to.

What temperatures are you running at the basking spot, the warm zone in the existing beardie tank and how are you measuring them ?

Is the lid of the tank solid timber or flow through mesh ?

I recommend replacing the lid on the viv with a solid timber lid (with small air vents) and do the same with the second tank, you can then get the same temperatures in the basking spots and warm zones as now but will need less basking globe wattage to achieve these temperatures .
So rather than wasting the heat by allowing it rise and pool at the ceiling ,the heat will be kept in the dragon tanks where you want it.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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!
