I absolutely love my Terra Sahara setup! My dragon is doing fantastic in it. He dug out a den and brumated for 3 months. Now that he is up,, he's more active than he ever was on the tile.The plants are fully established and growing great! I was just checking out your website yesterday to order more! Going bioactive has been an absolute joy for both Niko and myself!

Glad this was helpful! You can include basil and other edible plants into the soil to provide your Beardie options. Dubia roaches are great alternative source of protein as well.

So glad to have learned more about the kind I can us with the Terra Sahara soil. I also find my Box turtles like to destroy plants I put in with them. LOL love them anyway. GOD BLESS 🦎💖🐢💖🐍💖

I’m leaning towards bioactive for my new 36x18x18 terrarium. My only concern is, how does one move a bioactive setup once it’s fully set up? Wouldn’t you basically have to destroy your bioactive setup, by emptying it in a tote/ buckets?

Are you going to do videos like this for all your substrate? Cuz that would actually be really awesome if you would tell everybody what plants they can put in your substrate. Your terrarina and the desert substrate and the rainforest substrate I would love to see a video even if it's like one full video with all them together but preferably just do separate videos of each substrate and what plants you can put in there. That would be awesome. Thank you! Happy Keeping!!

Would it be safe to mix your substrate with Josh’s Frogs biobedding? Ive been looking into getting a kit from you for a while because your vids are awesome, so I wanted to use your substrate as a base and maybe add a 10 qt bag of the desert biobedding later on to add an inch or 2 to the dirt. Would that be dangerous or risky?

Hey bio dude. I just recently purchased the Red eyed tree frog kit from you and it should be here Friday. I want to be very thorough in making sure the enclosure is set up properly before placing the frogs in so I have been breeding my isopods and springtails and have not purchased any frogs yet. I just recently saw your Chytrid video and it has me running around crazy trying to find a reputable breeder. Is there anyone you would recommend and/or do you ship frogs ? I’m trying to stay away from the “field collected” sellers to avoid this fungus as much as possible but it seems like you’re the only one who captive breeds these little guys. Thank you. Random dude abides 👋

Prickly pear cactus is highly nutritious and completely safe to feed to a bearded dragon as long as the spines are removed and it is not given regularly. The fruit of the cactus is also edible, but you should remove the skin and seeds first.

Can I add fresh plants to my bearded dragons tank , I use a washable soft grass carpet substrate
@TheBioDudeJoshHalter2 жыл бұрын
Plants will need a deeper substrate layer than that carpet will be able to offer. They need at least 4 inches to really allow their roots to grow, get grounded and flourish. You could keep them in their pots and just place them into your enclosure allowing your Beardie to eat them if he pleases. However, when you are ready to introduce any live plants within your enclosure, even in just the pots, be sure to take the proper cleaning precautions by de-dirting them and rinsing the root base completely. This will help prevent any hitchhikers, fertilizers or bacteria being introduced within your current enclosure.
