Are u using any colored or coiled bulbs?? If so remove them ASAP they are deadly to a Beardies eyes. Use a CLEAR bulb for heat; the Zoomed is a food one and the Reptisun 10.0 T5 long tubular bulb for UVB. The length unorder should cover 70 percent of the tank & all uvb lights need replacing every 6 mnths. Also, how close is the beardie to the light or uvb, for the UVB he should be 12 inches or more away and the Heat bulb he should be at least about 10-12 or more away. Take him to a vet ASAP
