FloridaHogs 03-05-2010, 03:02 PM Finally got all the lighting and tank all set for Lily

and while I was taking pics I busted her eating some greens. She is by no means eating them well, more like just to take the edge off...but progress is progress.

Mrs. Sputnik 03-05-2010, 03:21 PM Cool set up and glad she is eating at least some
anendeloflorien 03-05-2010, 03:27 PM Looks like she's loving it Jenea!
JOHNS6068 03-05-2010, 04:08 PM Nice looking setup :cheers:
Looks great Jenea! The only thing that I would say is to switch the light over to the other side, or flup everything in the tank. Have the highest point in the tank right under the light, so she can get good and close to it if she wants to burn off some of the greens that she's finally eating!

Right now, that basking rock is sitting at 105...whenever she wants to sleep, she climbs to the very top of her ramp, presses her nose in the corner, and dozes off. If I flop everything around she would loose her comfy place. :)

Ahhh, so that mv bulb is giving off some serious heat! I see!!
FloridaHogs 03-05-2010, 08:52 PM It is the 100 watt sunforce MVB. Jeremy told me it was the only way to go :D
Melanie 03-06-2010, 12:33 AM The setup looks great Jenea! Better not post it on the beardie forums with all that sand though! :rolleyes: I can't post mine either! Haha!
PS- What a pretty girl!

Yeah, gotta love that! Cuz you just know that there are people running around Oz making sure that none of the beardeds are ever actually touching the sand.:mad:
norsmis 03-06-2010, 05:27 AM Yeah, gotta love that! Cuz you just know that there are people running around Oz making sure that none of the beardeds are ever actually touching the sand.:mad:
:lmao: Yeah right!
Good looking set up Jenea! I think she is liking her new home and new mommy! :yes:
FRoberts 03-06-2010, 02:39 PM nice set up!!!!
Ostiguy 03-07-2010, 04:35 PM Nice setup
FloridaHogs 03-07-2010, 06:04 PM Thanks!
Jeepguy 03-28-2010, 03:11 PM I have used millet for substrate with my beardies. It goes right through them. If you are really concerned with impaction. I use sand with no problems at all. I really didn't like the millet it got everywhere. Figured I would throw it out there. I am now trying a topsoil, sand, and peat mixture holds humidity a little better for when they're shedding.

FloridaHogs 03-28-2010, 04:28 PM She has gained a little over 10 g in the 5 weeks I have had her. :)
Jeremy says he has got the perfect male for her! :lol: Showed a picture to my son, and now he is "nagging" me about her "boyfriend" :lmao: SIGH....who knew I would end up with legged things at my house!
She's looking really good Jenea. Look forward to seeing her and her new boyfriend give you clutches of eggs.:devil::rockon:
