Hi All,
I've been lurking here for a few months now and must say the community here is top shelf. Lots of great help and advice being offered in a very friendly atmosphere!
I'm looking to get a Bearded Dragon (first reptile) in the next couple of months and so I've been looking around a lot for enclosures and am about 90% set on building my own. I've read in a few places that pine should not be used due to aromas it emits that can be toxic to a reptile. On the other hand I've seen a few threads here where people have built some stunning enclosures using pine without anyone commenting on the potential risk.
So, my question is... Is pine a real issue, how can/should it be used?
Thanks,
Chris
