I've recently joined the forum and have been loving it so far! I've decided to post an introduction thread, just saying a little about my Beardie. I've attached a photo as well for you all to see. 
( at the bottom of the thread
)
This is a really recent photo of Yoshi. He's about 4 or 5 years old, and hes been a really nice pet since when I got him! I've been looking for new ways to set up his enclosure, considering the fact that a few more elements are needed. I currently have a 75 gallon tank equipped with the 100W Powersun UVB lamp, and am looking into getting a heat lamp, seeing those are quite necessary for most enclosures for Beardies. Yoshi currently has sand, which I am actually contemplating getting rid of- due to his lack of "poops" he's been taking. Any suggestions? I do supply Yoshi with the Rep-Cal Herptivite Multivitams and Calcium on his daily staple greens, so I think his nutrition might be alright. He rarely gets crickets, other than when I can find time to stop by the pet store. I've read that older beardies tend to eat more of the salads and sort? Right? It might also be caused by the lack of heat he's getting? If any of you guys have any suggestions for a different substrate or any of your favorite heat lamps or heating pads, leave me a suggestion and it would be much appreciated! Oh! And I do also have some slate tiles that i could put in the tank-- I know some people actually use slate in some of their enclosures, so I could always opt for that as well.
