Ok what size tank is Sparkles in? Please ditch the sand and use paper towels for now -- did she lay eggs? How old is she? Usually the frantic digging could mean shes gravid--- you need to get two digital probe thermometers-- Zoo Med makes them found at Pet Smart or Petco --- the long tube fixture for a UVB is what you need --- I am going to post links for them and you need this ASAP- tank size we can work on later but we need to get the surface basking temps and UVB on par first ---- there are 3 good ones to choose from you want a 24" fixture ---- this will go into a bigger tank later --here is a pick i have to get stuff for her need ideas and help cheap.

What UVB did you get and what is the screen on the tank? Fine mesh or wide hole typeThank you so much for your help! I was able to find a store called Family Reptiles here in Lakeland, Florida. I purchased a basketball, UVB lights, and some sticks that I cut up myself. I also bought a log for my reptile. Thank you for everyone's support.

Ok so fine mesh the UVB needs to be unobstructed --- the screen will block approx 30% of the UVB rays - you can either take the screen off or put it inside the tank - I can post things to hang w / if you need them - a piece of basking decor should be directly under it approx 12-15 inches --i got t have e zomed 10.0 t10 34inch buld the is a metal mesh on top i sat all to one side and he is soaking up the sun

I am glad to hear you are trying to get your dragon's tank environment improved, that is important.
As Karrie has suggested, it would be advantageous to try & mount the UVB tube underneath of the
screen top since it is a finer mesh.
How is her appetite doing? I hope she is doing better soon. Do you have pictures of her you could
post?
Sparkles is a great name!
