I just got my dream reptile. But before i go into detail i am going to talk about the week.
So the start of the week was ok i fed my kingsnake on sunday and he ate 2 + 1 really small one about the size of a penny pinkies. i did some more cage work on the snakes and water dragon enclouser, as well as the gecko tank. i will have pics up most likely tomorrow night. i went on another hike few days ago and found this really cool lizard but decided to leave it alone since it was missing its tail and was extremly fast.
NOW FOR THE BIG NEWS
Ok so yea my dream lizard did not cost that much he was pretty cheap around 70.00 and i had the tank and some decor. so all i needed was a hide another basking log and food and water dish as well as substrate. i found a pretty good deal on this light so i went with it. i spent a little more then i wanted but well worth it. its a zoo med uv basking light or something like that. it has uvb + uva + heat. it provides a uv range of 3 feet. the guy actully proved it to i was having some time beleving it but he had a uv gauge thing and sure enought. that cost me 50.00 OUCH!!!! but it works excellent.

Zoomed Powersun 100 Watt. (50.00)
I would Recomend Any of these products for this lizard (Have not yet told you what). The powersun is great cause it is an all in one light, it provides uv up to 3 feet (Proven Fact) It has a nice feature it shuts its self off if the area around it or in the terrarium is really hot. It will shut down for about 15 mins for a cooling period then turn back on. As well Zoomed covers it with a 1 year warranty. so if something goes wrong with it they will replace it. (must send warranty card in)
So What Requires A Desert Theme? As Well As A 100 Watt Bulb?
Hmmm.
I Wonder…..
Yep Its A Beared Dragon. (He Is just a baby) his name is Drago (No Spelling Error)
