Ive been offered a Hatchling Beardie for free and im thinking it would be rude to turn down, its waiting to hatch ive been told its about a month off being ready.
What i need to know is what kind of setup i need for it and what should i be looking for to see if its healthy and what-not.
Any help is great
Cheers Jon |

Viv (minimum 3ft by the time they're 6 months old personally i'd not use anything under a 4ft) Ceramic Bulb and Dimming Stat, (you can either knock the temp down manually every night or turn it off on a timer and have a heat mat on at night) UV starter and 10% Bulb, (best to put this on a timer) Basking rock, water dish, food dish, Calcium/vitamin suppliment powder Climbing branch, Hide Substrate (beach chips or Orchid bark), locusts/crickets (mealworms/waxworms as a treat) Cabbage
Beardies ROCK but they aren't cheep to set up or to look after, new UV bulb every 6 months and buckets loads of bugs each week especilly while they're growing, they really are a huge commitment and it can be hard to find people willing to lizard sit too so you should really think before taking one on. Hope this helps. |
