I LOVE your beardieIts so cute. I love the yellow Also I see you live in Mississippi. May I ask where at?? My whole family lives out there.
Yeah try the hardware section like where the paint and lightbulbs and all that are.. Actually what u should ask them is where are the outdoor thermometers and thats where they are.. Thanks! She's a mess and so spoiled lol.. I live in Madison..
Okay. I should be getting it Saturday and if I do I'll let you know how the search went. Lol. Oh okay. I have no clue where that's at. My family is in Kiln, Gulfport, Bay St. Louis, Waveland, Diamandhead and those areas.

And I just wanted to say that it's awesome that you actually kept and cared for your beardie once you had your kid, cause not everyone does. I adopted my Dudley because his owner got pregnant, and dropped off all her beardies at the reptile shop right away. :| So kudos to you for being a good mom to your 2 year old and your lizard!
And yup, the thermometers are in the outdoors/hardware section, since they aren't actually meant for pet use LOL. Sorry if I confused you about the stick-on ones.
Slave2Scarlett":1vkyokr2 said:You can also use the industrial strength velcro strips that you can get from Lowes to mount the uv light on the back of the tank.. One other thing is.. I would recommend going with the 24" reptisun b/c you can't find a fixture for an 18" that you will be able to mount inside the tank.. It requires a T8 fixture and the only one I could find in town (besides the hood @ petsmart which is an 18") was the 24" @ walmart.. I actually mounted a 24" in a 20gallon tank so it will fit just fine in a 30gallon.. Just a few little tips.. Good luck! Sounds like you are doing a great job u just needed a little direction :wink:
warnisha":1zmtze7x said:Also, just wanted to add that I got one of the therm with the probes (yellow box and white probe) and it isn't accurate at all, my accurite from walmart is great always right on, I have that one and two stand up digitals that are always exactly the same. I tested them by putting them next to my thermostat in the house and they all matched. So, that is how I check ours. anyway, just wanted to add that!
Again don't stress it will be fine you are working on making the tank right now and that is what matters. Not the past. :lol:
and yes pictures would be fantastic!!!!!!

The light that comes in the fixture from Walmart is not a UVB light. You still need to order the ReptiSun, but you only need to use the fixture from Walmart, not the light that comes with it. Does that make sense?
And for your basking/heating light, you don't need any thing special. Any regular house light will work just fine (Halogen lights and flood lights give off the most heat, though!). The only "special" reptile light you need is the UVB one.
For the substrate, you can just use paper towels for now so you can get him off the sand.
Hmm, I've never used the velcro. The hooks have always worked really well for me though, and they are probably cheaper than the velcro is?

And just make sure he is not eating the sand, and try to feed him in a seperate bin or something until you get the sand replaced. That way, he won't accidentally get a mouthful of it when he is going for his bugs.
