How to set up an enclosure for a beard dragon?

Okay, I'm going to give you a basic rundown on a setup.


You can use a tank if you'd like as these guys don't require much humidity at all., something like a 30 gallon long would do nicely.

I would use a 10.0 UVB lighting 75watt (this is mainly for the minerals the UVB lamp provides) And as for the temperature side of the field I would use a simple basking lamp.

DO NOT USE SAND under any circumstances...and don't let the idiots at petshops tell you any difference...this is the quick route to impaction and most likely death down the road for your little dragon. paper towels is honestly the best thing, it may not look good but it works the best, plus it's so easy to clean up.

I would get a basking rock, and not a heating rock. Just a flat rock to sit under the basking lamp so he can sun himself.. And for the most part, the rest is pretty self explanatory, they should be on a diet of greens and gut loaded insects
