Hello,
I haven't posted on this forum site in a while but when i did it was a great help! To cut down to the chance i had a question about lighting so ill start with the specs.
40 G Breeder
100 watt Basking
75 watt basking
Temp Gun monitored
UVB 10.0 tube with a fixture
Bearded dragon (Zooma) he is going to be one in February(since the time i bought him, i don't know his exact birthdate)
My question is lately he has had him mouth open a fairly decent amount. I'd say about 6-7/10 times i look at him his mouth is open. i have noticed that when he is out of the cage he still does it just not as much. I've read that this could be a uvb light problem, so this leads me to my next question. I have a screen over my cage could this be blocking the uvb from reaching him???
Thank you guys so much for reading please response with your thoughts.

Is the uvb a reptisun t5 10.0 tube light? If it is then you shouldnt worry, usually beardies bask with their mouths open when trying to keep themselves at a temperature or release extra heat from what ive read. However if it is a coil or compact bulb you'll want to get a tube light and if its a t8 you'll want to mount it inside using wire.

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!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
