Re: Kicking the can

Adults aren't the lazy sausages everyone thinks about when you mention beardies if you don't keep them on Lino/carpet/paper towel, super dry cage and 90 degrees to function on

In Australia they cover a huge amount of the country with slightly different terrain and humidity levels all over. I don't think they should be kept strictly like a desert animal with no water bowls like some people believe
I would do what Wayne does. Keeps it pretty dry up top and within the burrows his monitors dig it's 100% humidity. The animals are built to retain humidity this way so they don't need to have access to water all the time.

I agree but it's the norm and people love how their dragons are so "personable" etc. etc. Which is a topic I'm too tired to go into depth about here.
