Trying to get ideas as Horton has outgrown his previous tub and I am not one for using the sink.
Thanks!

i use the bath, its great has a naural gradient so they can go a little deeper of their own will and gives them plenty of room to roam in there.

I use the bath tub as well... Several reasons.

I can clean it easily between each use.

It is large enough for my "swimming" dragons to swim.

Gemini fits.

Hope that helps !

We put a huge rubbermaid tub in our sink. Plenty of room to swim and soak.

I always used my tub, but another suggestion is using one of those "kiddie pools". I hear they work great especially if you live in warm climate area where you can use it outside.

I was just telling Bev the other day that I wanted to get one for Frodo and Sam to see how they'd react with each other in the same bath. They've never been together....so I'm curious. I just don't want any little dragons running around. LOL!

That's why I've avoided it up to now. Guess I'll just keep avoiding....

More surprised than the day of the sex change! I still can't believe "she" did that to me. :D

I use the sink... Lola likes to stick her head under the faucet. She tried to investigate the garbage disposal one time... I'll have to try the tub to see if she likes it more.

Here's a question... is it just my beardie or do other "kick" themselves in the head with their back feet when they are getting a bath? I will understand if it is just mine... All my animals (this includes the kid) are off their rockers.

LOL! You're fittin' right in...

I've seen mine do this on occasion. I'm thinking it might have something to do with shedding than anything.

I use my bath tub.

I had a dragon that used to kick herself only when she got water on her head. She hated that.

I have tubs for each of my dragons. They fit in the kitchen sink. Then for swimming (no pooping) I use the guest bathtub for Magick to swim. Jada and Semi don't like to swim.
