It is a 40 gallon tank.
the basking side is about 96, using the ZooMed 100w Basking Bulb
Alright. Baby/juv beardeds should have a 105-110F basking temperature. But I think that it has to do with the thermometers you are using. I always recommend digital therms because the stick on therms can be up to 20 degrees off, as they measure ambient temperature, not specific temperature, and are relativity cheap in quality (they break very easily). As an example... it can say 96F on the wall, but where your dragon is sitting could be 120F. I like to use therms with probs specifically for the basking spots of cages
cool side about 80, I don't really use a specific bulb but I have the
UVB bulb on that side.
Cool side seems fine. You usually want it anywhere between 80-86F. But again, you are using stick ons, and strips at that. They're not even good for fish tanks in which they are originally designed for (not for use with reptiles)
I have a strip stick on thermometer on both sides.
My substrate went from newspaper to shelf liner and soon to be tile.
This is perfect, as this was my primary concern. But again, I do not know what the previous owner had her housed on
I have no clue about the breeder, he seemed legit
but the more we tried to talk to him and get info the shadier he got,
so I wouldn't put it past him to have done something wrong.
My
UVB Bulb is the RepiSun 10.0 Compact Fluorescent.
I feed her crickets, lettuce, raspberries or blackberries.
Refer to Beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html. You should feed her more dark leafy greens, like collard, mustard, and dandelion greens. Stay away from iceburg lettuce, spinach, advocado, and rhubarb as these can be toxic or cause severe diahhrea.
She really doesn't drink the water,
but I give her baths and spray her down with water if I don't.
