Breaded Dragons

[jakehendo94]

Hi there all. I am new to all of this and was hoping for a few tips. I have a few questions that I cant get my head around and thought by asking you maybe I can get some help. Have a new reptile enclosure and am hoping to get a breaded dragon. I live in Ballarat so if there is anyone in ballarat trying to get rid baby ones can you let me know?? The other questions I have are about the enclosure. Can you use a normal Fluorescent light in there? Or are are the ones at a pet shop the best ones to use? Last question I was told you can put kitty litter on the bottom of the enclosure. Does anyone know what its called and where I can get if from. Thanks to all who have read this. Hope you can help me out. jakehendo94

First they are Bearded Dragons.

Second Try Pails for Scales at Wendouree

Normal lights don't work, get a NEC T10 they are about $13.

And don't use kitty litter use newspaper.

Breaded? Haha. That's cute. A giant loaf of lizard....

Don't live anywhere near ballarat - can't help you there.

Anyway, newspaper will be fine... especially if you're getting a baby - i use marine carpet underneath the newspaper... get it from bunnings.

Yes, you need a UV fluro tube - from the pet shop.

Good luck, you might find you have a few more questions if you're new to this - feel free to ask - enjoy.
