    Replicating Natural Sunlight

    So how do you use the UVB bulbs with a 12% and a 6%? Start with the 6 switch to 12 then back to 6? Thanks for all the other info, very helpful

    They also absorb water from the insects and greens they eat as well as from the water in the air they breathe. High humidity for extended periods of time could result in a UR infection. But short spurts are natural, like rain in the Outback. He had a solid poop yesterday, but I’ll be sending...

    Thanks for the info. I’ve read that forcing baths on bearded dragons can potentially have bad effects. Because of warm waters laxative effect, it can cause them to poop before they are completely done digesting their food. And that can cause dehydration. Maybe while they are shedding it can...

    Replicating Natural Sunlight

    I have gone down a rabbit hole or research on trying to replicate natural sunlight spectrum (UV, visible, IR). Along with this, trying to mimic sunrise and sunset. Meaning gradually changing temps and UVI throughout the day, to mimic the natural changes experienced in the Australian Outback...

    I’ve got 3 sides of the cage covered to help reduce reflection and insulate the glass cage. So I don’t think he can really see himself. The smell was stinky but no worse than I expected, the smell wasn’t bad enough to clean the cage.

    Usually will bask directly under it. I do have the 12% bulb, so I could switch it if need be. When I get the UVI meter I will check out the gradient and see if I need to knock it down a notch

    Arcadias website says that the 14% UVB bulb gives off UVA. Specifically the stats are 14% UVB and 30% UVA. I have the bulb closer than 17-18” because there is a screen top between the bulb and the lizard.

    I don’t think the jungle dawn gives off much if any uva. I was under the impression that the Arcadia T5HO 14% would give off both UVA and UVB. Surface temperature was taken with a temp gun. Other temperatures are taken and tracked by acurite temp/humidity sensors. Thanks for the info!

    New Bearded Dragon Adoption Advice

    I adopted a ~2 year old male bearded dragon about a week ago. He hasn’t eaten much coming to me, he has only pooped once, and hadn’t been super active. I just want to make sure it’s safe to attribute this to relocation stress and not make care or health (vet appointment for the end of the...

    I actually happen to have a Mistking system I’m not currently using. Do you mind telling me how you go about using yours? How often do you let it “rain”? Do you have most nozzles? Or nozzles that spray more droplets than fine mist? Etc… that is definitely an interesting topic, maintaining an...

    Do you add any actual soil? Or plant right into the Jurassic? And do you have a “clean up crew” that works if the hot arid environment?
