    Does my set-up look okay?

    If you need to, just get a higher watt bulb to make up for the temp not getting high enough. Also, it probably does get hotter than 105 given your temp probe is attached to the side of where the lamp is. It'd be ideal to have the probe as close to the actual basking spot as possible. Speaking...

    Looking for non-toxic sealant

    You could try using a mod podge to seal it. Mod podge is super cheap, and non-toxic to reptiles, and you can dilute it with water if you want to put on a thin layer. It is like $5-$15 dollars a bottle (depending on size) at any craft store (or online). Personally, I've used Pond Armor Pond...

    Does my set-up look okay?

    Hey, I see you've already been given great advice on the UVB and heat bulbs, and I will reiterate you need to get UVB on this guy ASAP. Without UVB they will develop severe metabolic bone disease and likely die. It is necessary for digestion so every day your little guy doesn't have a UVB bulb...

    Beardie adamantly refuses greens, could use some input please

    Oh boy, another stubborn boy it sounds like haha. Do you push the syringe into his mouth, or just drip it on his nose and let him lick it off? I've considered the syringe method myself, but would rather avoid anything invasive if possible (no hate if that's what you gotta do).

    Beardie adamantly refuses greens, could use some input please

    Responding again to actually answer your question! Try mixing in fruit and bugs into his salad, sometimes the movement of the bugs will excite them, then the flavor of fruit will convince them. Also blending some fruit and making a "dressing" for his salad could be worth a shot.

    Beardie adamantly refuses greens, could use some input please

    Hey, I realized I never replied to this post months ago, but wanted to update you since your problem sounds similar. I ended up exhausting all options and my beardie decided he'd rather starve than eat greens (literally lost like 50 grams, wasn't good). I ended up taking him to the vet twice...

    Beardie adamantly refuses greens, could use some input please

    Hey guys, Sorry for long post ahead, but really appreciate any input! I've had my beardie a little over 3 years now. For most of his life he has picked at his greens here and there, but has always been really picky and obviously prefers bugs or fruit. After this past winter when he came out...

    Anxious Dragon?

    Hey thanks for the reply! When I'm letting him run about I never have the cats in the room! I definitely want him to feel safe. I meant when I take him out just to hangout while I'm playing games or on my computer or even to watch a movie, but if the cats aren't locked away he gets anxious...

    Anxious Dragon?

    I am here again with more questions haha! I've gotten to know my dragon quite well at this point, but he's still not full grown. His new enclosure is very large and means the cats are able to see in, and they get curious, but they really don't have any desire to hurt him even when I take him...

    Male and Female Dragon Living Together?

    It's great to hear all your experiences! Judging by his personality, I can not see Fernando being okay even around cages with other males. He's got quite the personality and is moody. Much moodier than I expected a beardie to be. @Mom of blazey I'm glad you were able to figure out a way to...

    Male and Female Dragon Living Together?

    Wow, thank you for all the info. I'm definitely very interested in reptile and amphibian keeping in general, so knowing where to get good compact shelving is super helpful for later down the line. I hope to one day have an animal room, but we are in an apartment now, so it's not plausible yet...

    Male and Female Dragon Living Together?

    Thanks for your reply, yeah I definitely figured 2 males wouldn't work out together. I'm for sure interested in more beardies in the future, but I absolutely want to make sure I know what I'm doing. Looks like I'll have to wait a while because I certainly don't want any fights breaking out...

    Male and Female Dragon Living Together?

    Oh my, alright I certainly wouldn't want anything bad to happen to either animal, so I won't be doing this. Thanks for the information.

    Male and Female Dragon Living Together?

    Hello again guys, I've wondered about this for a while now. Have any of you had experience housing a male and female dragon together as a permanent situation? I've just about finished building Fernando's permanent enclosure, and it's huge! It's 4'x2'x2', and way bigger than I pictured it...
