So I have a medium sized tank for my beardie. He currently has a basking lamp and a UVB tube light that have been thoroughly approved by all the experts as the best that I can afford. He seems to be thriving in it right now when I rescued him from my sister he had some MDB in his jaw. It still makes a funny popping noise when he opens his mouth, but it's not as bad as it used to be. He has a basking Hideaway Rock. A rather small water dish that he walks in and out of on occasion and then licks his feet which is disgusting but whatever floats his boat right. His salad dish and a bug dish. The worms usually Escape. He currently does not have anything on the bottom of his enclosure. It's just the glass. Is there anything else that he needs? He's got one of those stick on thermometers that's at his head level when he's sitting on his basking Rock and it currently says 95 in there.
I have been told by some of my friends to take his water dish out and to get one of those dripper boxes. What are your thoughts on those?
When my sister had this lizard she had one half of the tank with a basking light no UVB light and a ginormous rock that she found outside. And the other half of the tank had some of those plastic stick on Jungle leaves and she would spray the jungle leaves with water and try to convince me that he would lick the water off of the leaves and that's how he got his water. But at the same time when she would release Cricket that's the first place they go and he wouldn't be able to find any of them because it was so dense. I've basically taken everything out even that huge outdoor rock. I think she had a stick in there too and he fell off the stick when he was trying to climb. And that's when she decided to put the Rock in there.
