Hello guys, I am new here but really need some help with my bearded dragon set up. He is a full grown adult.
So long story short I feel like I am constantly making trips to the store because literally every bulb I buy goes out. I kept getting the Repti Basking Spot 150 watt bulb and out of the 5 or 6 I have gotten all of them went out in a matter of days. I have tried Infrared and black out ceramic heat emitters from Petsmart and Petco but it’s the same thing every time, usually they last a couple days and then go out or are barely able to produce any heat after sometime. The bulbs are all about 5 inches above his basking spot. I am really tired of constantly having to go to the store and find another bulb just to have it go out shortly after.
Can anyone PLEASE give me their bulb recommendations for basking spots that actually work in your experience. I would prefer bulbs that give off light, but will settle for anything that works heat wise for at least a couple weeks. Although, please no expensive mercury vapor bulbs, he already has sufficient UVB, I just need a heat lamp.
