    Sudden loss

    She never showed signs of egg laying. I suppose anything’s possible as far as ingesting something or being bit by an insect but if she injested anything I would think it would be a spider or small bug that possibly got in her tank because it is fall and getting colder outside and spiders are...

    Sudden loss

    I feel I did everything right, but one day my 18 month old beardie woke up with a black beard and seemed almost puffed up. I took her out when she didn’t budge at the sight of her morning salad topped with a couple dusted superworms. I gave her a warm bath because she had been pooping weekly...

    Update 12-9-20 Bought Arcadia t5 12% 36” to cover most of tank and a CHE hooked to a temp control so if it struggles to stay warm it will help boost the temp during the day and it’s set to stay 70 at night. thanks all also continuing to research building a wider viv to upgrade my current 4foot...

    Double Check-Am I doing everything right?

    **UPDATE** I removed the red bulb, removed the powersun it has reached its 12 months so it wasn’t worth distancing it and needing more heat. Added plain clear basking bulb and mounted my existing 24 inch T8 uv fixture under screen. Tried buying the reptisun 36” 10.0 at local pet store got home...

    Double Check-Am I doing everything right?

    Does anyone have experience and knowledge about building a safe viv? I’m good with projects and wonder if it might be the way to go rather than buying one that’s a lot of money and still not exactly what I want. The only thing that worries me about constructing one myself is safety where heat is...

    All pet stores should be required to give this guide initially! With a few additional topics! Great sheet

    Double Check-Am I doing everything right?

    Hi Julee-( and all others I’ve addressed some others comments as well) Nico likes to climb he has no issue climbing up the driftwood onto the hammock and he either climbes back down or he kinda slunks down onto his log that’s in the center. He doesn’t land on tile. I have put fleece cuts of a...

    I will try the zoomed 100 watt, but my worry is how can this power sun bulb fry an animal if it struggles to make his hammock (basking spot) 105 degrees? That’s with a probe thermometer.

    Double Check-Am I doing everything right?

    I am sorry but it was sold to me by a reptile store, everything I have was and I have researched and am unable to find where they are dangerous or not recommended for them. It sounds like you are suggesting he is getting too much uvb?? Yet worried he’s not getting enough because it isn’t mounted...

    What do you have in mind? I was thinking using large plastic zip ties one on each end so it can’t fall. Thoughts?

    Double Check-Am I doing everything right?

    Thank you for the suggestions. I will replace the red heat lamp with a ceramic heat bulb. His basking bulb is clear and is uva, uvb and heat all in one 160 watt bulb and he basks for hours before and after eating daily just inches from it. I will see about mounting the other T8 under the screen...

    Can someone help with all my questions please?

    Hi there, My first advice is buy a piece of the styrofoam poster board and cut it so that it wedges tightly to divide your viv in half. From my experience they should not have full roam of a larger viv until they are a little bigger (5-6 months plus based on grow rate) because they can actually...
