    Haha! That's exactly how my wife looks at me when I ask a "stupid" question. He's a good looking beardie! Yes PatsyB! He's going to turn me into a cricket breeder lol.

    Proper UVB application

    RIght and as I described before, he was super active in the pet store. But now he has a habitat 4 times the size and all to himself. How many do you have and how old are they/he/she?

    Proper UVB application

    I feel a lot better knowing everything is where it should be. And I agree, he suddenly seems less "sluggish" and happier in general.

    Proper UVB application

    OK you guys have been awesome! I went out tonight and picked up a 24" T8 10.0 UVB tube and a 150W basking bulb and WOW! I don't know if it's coincidence or not but he immediately annihilated crickets and roaches he wanted nothing to do with just an hour or 2 before. He was running around the...

    Proper UVB application

    Yeah, I've heard that about those stores but took a chance anyway. He was the most active one at the store so we'll see. I don't see any concerning signs thus far other than his "lazy" behavior. Thanks again for all your quick feedback! I'll update this thread as time progresses. I'll...

    Proper UVB application

    Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply. The thermometer also has a hygrometer to evaluate the humidity, but it's great advice to monitor the temp/humidity on the other side as well. So it's normal then for him/her to sleep basically the entire last 1.5 days, only eating minimally? I'm sure...

    Proper UVB application

    Hello! I'm very new to the beardie way of life, and despite my research efforts, I still have a lot of questions. I purchased the "All Things Living" 40 gallon bearded dragon kit from Petsmart and it came with a 26W UVB high-output bulb and 100 watt basking bulb (see long link below). The tank...

    Mushu!

    We purchased our first beardie yesterday after a ton of reading/video watching. So, far he/she has eaten only 1 cricket and sipped very little water but we're hopeful in the next day or 2, he/she will get back to normal having settled into his/her new habitat. We purchased a 40 gallon tank...
