    why do bds hold mouth open when basking

    i'm curious why a beardie would hold their mouth open when basking. i was visiting a friend who had one and he asked me if he should worry or if i thought it was normal. i told him i'd let him know what i find if i could

    i replaced bulb, lowered it, and put it at about 6-8 inches over him. his activity level skyrocketed and he couldn't appear much happier than he is now

    starting cricket colony Q?

    i have recently decided to start a cricket colony and wanted to know if i start one with using fishing bait shop crickets? it is far more convenient and easier to buy them rather than ordering them online. i put them in a container so they can eat and drink before giving them to my beardie

    i do give him live crickets, cuz that's all he eats. i've been talking and getting advice about him eating only live crickets. the main reason i have freeze dried is that the crickets eat it and other dry food in a dish. while they eat he watches and stalks them from above and strikes for one...

    they freeze dried. his crickets usually are who eat them. i had just put it in the dish. he is indifferent to them. waits for crickets to get to dish and gets them

    this helped a lot and saved me what would most certainly would have been a major headache. didn't realize the difference in lighting and fixture had such a range. i don't think i would have figured it all out if you hadn't helped.

    ok. i have it all set up to get me through till i get what i need. of course while i was doing this the timer turned off so he laid down for the night. i will be getting the right stuff tomorrow first thing. after knowing what told what exactly i needed to use, it didn't take much to look up.

    my current one is 18" long. i'm running into a problem with placing it in the tank cuz the heat is making the light fixture hot and a serious hazard of melting.

    i've put it in the tank already. no it doesn't have reflector behind it but it wouldn't be difficult to add something that would be reflective

    should i leave uvb on overnight? or what do suggest to do with lighting during the night? and would it helped if i took him outside for a little while to get fresh sun?

    that's fine. i was just curious is all. anyway back to the topic. i run into a major issue on getting the specific bulb. closest place that sells them is a pretty far drive for me cuz i live in the country. and i don't know how soon i can get there. what's the time frame i have?
