new beardie

[dzb912]

just got back
i picked up this sandfire beardy for 35 bucks!
he wasnt as nice in color as his brothers and sisters tho
thats why he was so cheap
its siblings were going for 50

here he is in the box

Before he went in his cage for the first time

And here he is in the new enclosure

isnt he adorable?
sorry for the blury pics
i cant figure out how to turn of my flash

crapy pics man lol
the good thing is red takes longer to come in so you may luck out

 

[dzb912]

ya i no lol
my camera was a cheapo
but is theyre something wrong with this guy?
instead of basking all day like normal beardies he soaks in his water dish

How hot is it in the cage?

 

[coura]

Yea it could be too hot for him

 

[reptech]

like everyone else says may be to hot or he could be dihidrated (that is spelt wrong lol)

 

[dzb912]

its actually not even hot enough
its about 94 on the hot side
and i havent moved the thermometor to the cold side yet
but as soon as i got him he started to lay in the bowl

He may just have gotten dehydrated before you got him and now he's trying to rehydrate himself. My beardie soaks almost daily too, but only for short periods of time.

well it turns out he didnt have alot of color because he was in his shed
he shed today and i was shocked to see he looked to be the best in the clutch
i went back and saw the same clutch
so they gave me the best lookin one they had for 25 bucks cheaper
im so happy!
he also deficated today as i gave him a bath
so these are good signs that he is healty
u had my doubts but now hes great
il post some pics of him in a bit with his new skin
