DK - Forget air temperature - get yourself an Infrared Thermometer...you need to know the temperature of the surface they are basking on...that's what counts. Should be at least 65*c...

Lol Kirby - then why were you talking about Bearded Dragons in an Ackie thread? Relevance.........?

Methinks you need to do some more research I knew what a Sandfire Ackie was, and I'm not even into monitors!

Mods - Is it possible to have nonsensical posts deleted...? If so #48 and #50 need attention - also, perhaps an example could be made of the poster as I believe it is irresponsible to encourage sniffing glue and posting on a public forum...

DK.....nice accie!...

Aslan..........????? try to have fun by yourself!

careful....you just publicly wrote that i take illegal drugs...think thats against the rules!

Magpie.....first to say i love my beardies, have a few soft spots with snakes species
& others ...i wouldnt go into a shop to by an accie,not saying i dont like them
but i dont buy just for the sake of it....too many do,you'll probably agree...people buy a species just to breed ,make money!...not that they are fond of them.
To me ...my little girl is beautiful...she as well as all my other animals ...they are part of my family!

DK just wanted to show off his accie.......then in came my adoring fans... not his fault!
but i do agree...some that is said is laughable... in the end the mods do a great job!
we all should respect the fact that this forum is here for all of us...all can have opinions,views
but views on the animal or husbandry....some make it a vendetta,some believe its their way ,their rules
i also get heated & say too much....my bad as they say!

all in all ...he has a beautiful accie to show off!!!...great buy DK

I agree with Aslan larger prey items can help in stimulating a food responce. What wattage globe are you using and how far from is it from the basking site? How active is the animal throughout the day?

Kirby i think sand is a really good substrate. For my digging box, i use washed river sand, the different sized particles give the sand more support and find if moist it can easily hold a burrow.

It's 75 Watt, I am not sure how far away from the stack it is.

She is very active during the day, and she is very docile when she is handled.

I highly reccomend them to anyone, such beautiful creatures...
