Re: Bearded dragon enclosure

I'm sorry. I meant a 300 watt capacity 10.5 inch dome socket running a 160w uvb bulb. I was going to use red brick on the bottom and use red stepping stones to make caves in a few spots. I was going to leave out bricks in some spots and level out gaps with pink play sand so half the bottom is brick and half sand. I have a hardwood dresser I repurposed that I'm putting a glass door on as well. That one I was planning to have a deeper substrate for digging in. I'm planning in the future sometime after I'm comfortable with reptile husbandry linking the 2 enclosures by a PVC pipe. I'm building 2 actual bearded enclosures together because I want my own and my gf wants her own and her son wants his own. So the 4x2x2 is supposed to house them all. But I wanted an extra one just in case there's aggression. If I had to seperate 3 lizards in 3 cages quickly I couldn't safely. But with 2 cages running together I feel I'm ready to rumble.

Hey mate, if your keeping more than one bearded dragon together, I would recommend an enclosure of these dimensions- 6ftL, 2ftW, 2ftH. I would consider these the minimum dimensions for three bearded dragons. Also if you are keeping three beardies together, make sure that its either 2 females and a male or 3 females. If you house two males together its most likely going to end in a fight.
Hope this helps.
