Hello! I am new to BD but not to reptiles. I have had my Veil Chameleon for 2yrs and a couple of days ago I amswered an ad on Craiglist and went and got an adult male Beardie. He has been in a 20 gallon tank his whole life ( He is 3 1/2 yrs old) He is very sweet and orange in color. I went out as soon as I got him home and settled and bought him a 40 gallon breeder tank with screen mesh top and a stand and he had no UVB or UVA bulbs at all so I bought him a light strip and bought a desert florescent bulb but I am going to order him some Arcadia bulbs and a new fixture soon. He has 150 watt basking light on one side and a red bulb that the original owners used as a night light. ( I am not sure if he needs that?)
He eats his veggies very well. I grind up Dandelion, kale, turnip greens. He also loves squash and Zucchini. Mango, . He will not eat carrots though. Is sweet potato ok? He loves his crickets and butterworms. I am glad to be here to learn more about these wonderful reptiles
