    Closed eyes! Help!

    In my experience UVB bulbs are just as/even cheaper than MVB. Buying the fixture does cost a bit, but if you can save for a month or two it's doable. MVBs are a pain - they have to be placed exactly correctly to work, let alone work well. And as Sadie said you still likely need additional UVB...

    Basking Light Lamp - Works only 2 months

    Typically a basking bulb will pop/burn out because the bulb is in too small of a fixture, gets too hot, and the actually parts inside die from the heat. If you have a properly fitted dome for your bulb it shouldn't burn out in 2 months. Sometimes they burn out because wiring is bad, but that is...

    Beardie Exercise Set Up

    I just got her today. Her tank is definitely small at 40 gallons (came with her), so I'm saving up for a larger one. I did add some paper to the sides and it seems to have calmed her down a bit. Cool side is 78-80, warm is 91-92 - I have digital probe thermometers in there. Humidity is good too...

    Beardie Exercise Set Up

    I just got a rescue beardie from a friend. He mentioned she runs back and forth a lot in her tank, so after she settles in I want to get her out of her tank and see if she'll run around on the floor with more space (friend gave me a 40 gallon with her, I plan to upgrade ASAP). Problem is I have...
