Hi All! I was given an enclosure with my re-homed beardie and I hate it. It's huge, wooden, and I don't think it's set up optimally. I'd love to get a new one, so I'm hoping to hear from a few of you about your personal favorite enclosures based on quality, functionality, and not having to spend a TON of money. I am certainly willing to pay a few hundred, but not a lot more.
Thanks, in advance, for any info you can provide! If you can include links to ordering sites, even better.
(BTW - my beardie is 5 years old, so he's a mature dude! :) )

You can look at www.zenhabitats.com

www.dubiaroaches.com
Others might have some more ideas for you

Thank you, Karrie! Do you have experience with these being quality enclosures? I am looking at one on dubia.com now, but I'm not sure how good it is. I'd hoped to get personal experience from the responses. :)
The dubia one I have not heard anything about yet -- I have 2 Zens and I like them the only draw back is the acrylic doors they scratch easy - you can get glass doors for them if you want -- I got them they make the tank alot heavier and you really need to watch when opening them -- I broke one of mine and did not get another one so I have one tank w/ one glass door and one w/ the original acrylic -- carolinacages are heavy as they are all glass --- and I dont like the fixtures they sell w/ the they have the basking bulb attached to the UVB making it hard to get basking temps correct w/ them not being able to move that basking bulb
here is one I just found
I did not know they sold them

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
