general help...
well i was at the pet store the other day and i was showing my mom a beardie... ive always wanted one but never asked cause my mom is not a herp person... well lone behold she asked me if i wanted one... she just fell in love with it and wants me to get one... :jawdrop: .. HE!! ya..
so she helped me move around my rrom and asked me to put all other projects aside ( breeding cresties and leos) for a short time.. if i do shell help me pay for my cresties as well as shell buy me the bearded dragon...
so heres my plan...
a cage thats 45x23x18 (lxwxh) made outta sealed plywood sliding glass doors and a screen top.... these are all materials that i have lieing around and the size fits perfectly on top of the table i have.. so wadda ya think...
and about heating... daytime is no prob, a light, but at night my room drops to about 65 maybe lower which is way to low for dragons.. i perfer not to use lights at night,
so my options are:
ceremic light, but is it ok to change the hot side at night. cause i wont be able to have both on one side, they wouldnt fit...
heat pad or tape, but how does that go through wood.. wouldnt it be a fire hazzard ( well even more so) and what thermosdat should it be hooked up to.. should it be on 24/7 to raise the ambient temp and use a lower wattage buld
any suggestion please on what might be in my best intrest for my enclosure.. thank you...
oh and sorry but what book do you sugest getting..
