I just lost mine about three weeks ago and I’m getting ready to get a new baby beardy and I want to use his old cage after I disinfected it and cleaned it out. I was concerned with all of this talk about him needing to be in a 40 gallon enclosure as I made this cage out of an old dresser and it is a pretty good size. Again props to you because I saw some of your own home making skills on your cages which gave me the idea to do that. Anyways, I don’t normally comment buy I just wanted to say that.

Minimum 40 gallon for a baby and those go for $200-$300. You can buy a 120 gallon for the same price on Amazon or chewy. It’s a one time purchase that will last his entire lifetime of 20 years. Uvb is a must. They will get metabolic bone disease if they don’t have Arcadia t5 12% or zoo med t5 10.0 is only ones reliable and worth it that’s something you can’t escape $75. I buy my heat lamps on Amazon it’s the cheapest $10 for two bulbs. Also but my lamps on there $10 for one heat lamp. I get my soil from Home Depot. $10 for 90 pounds. The only top notch care I give mine is lighting everything else is budget. I have budget enclosures budget heat and lighting fixtures. Budget soil. I get rocks and tree limbs from outside for free. It’s an expensive animal in general.

And when is the best time morning or evening? But just keep it consistent on schedule right Also should I leave salad in the cage all day as others have said Lastly, someone mentioned dry food bought in stores for dragons, is it any good or bad?

Yeah salad in all day is perfectly fine. Once a day is good cause it allows them all day to digest. Also we did in the hobby start feeding them as much as they will eat but since then research showed that’s not good for them they only need 5 crickets a day really as babies.

One more question is I bought a 300w dimmer pulse module from exo terra and I thought it would keep the light on and just control the temp accordingly however mine click off many times a day. It’s a 55 gallon tank and my basking area is around 105-110f however the hot air beside it is only 85. How do you control the temps better? Debaiting on making a dimmer for the basking light so I can just control the brighteness and basking temp. Also have a ceramic bulb in there so I can bring up the ambient.

Make sure temps are good uvb is correct and then if that’s all good and after another week if he doesn’t eat and starts losing weight take him to the vet.

Why do pet stores say feed them fruit and vegetables yet u say no fruit. They also say humidity 30 to 70 it crucial for digestion yet u say not to worrry.
@ChiefSweetsUniverse7 ай бұрын
Because pet stores have outdated info some have been updating pretty good actually I notice petco and petsmart is starting to update not everything but are going through updates so soon they will probably say exactly what I say as the advanced keepers and vets are now doing this exactly no fruit and humidity isn’t such a worry.

U know bearded dragons aren’t just from the desert I’m from Australia and they live around my house and I ain’t in the desert
@ChiefSweetsUniverse7 ай бұрын
Yeah but the ones not from the desert aren’t the ones we have in captivity. There’s multiple species and the ones that aren’t are ones like the eastern bearded dragon which is one of my favorites and the western. We have the central bearded dragon as a pet which comes from the desert
