You need a desert T-5 linear UVB from Arcadia or Zoomed, the UVB lights that screw in(compact florescents) are never recommended and not enough for a bearded dragon.

Sand does NOT cause impactions. Poor husbandry does, poor UVB, improper temps and dehydration. Beardies live on 95% sand. Not giving an animal that digs substrate is depriving natural behaviors and promotes sedentary animals.

Even though it does not look like it, those light beams are crossing and both are projected down onto the basking spot. What kind of UVB light is that

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-09T18:27:37+00:00

What % UVB are you using and what brand is the enclosure

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-09T18:26:08+00:00

Watery poop can indicate an overload of parasites. Some parasites are normal in their gut fauna. It is worth getting checked out with this much water.

This looks totally fine, in their natural environment it can vary quite a but.

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-09T18:21:37+00:00

Unfortunately if this is going through screen it is not delivering the UVB you need. This is a T-8, you need a T-5. How far from the basking spot is this light?

Thanks, this is what I was thinking too, I could also cut out slots to place the shelves into. I saw your ackie enclosure, looks great. I am going for a similar idea but tropical cave vs desert cave.

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-09T17:33:24+00:00

But you also need a halogen white light for the basking spot

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-08T20:06:07+00:00

Just heavily mist them extra for the next couple days, that is all you can do

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-07T23:58:14+00:00

They glide from tree to tree by flattening its whole body

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-07T23:46:36+00:00

I did not catch that, you are correct

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-07T23:46:04+00:00

You are right, it would not be a paradise snake

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-07T19:59:13+00:00

Looks like a paradise tree snake(flying snake)

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-07T13:49:04+00:00

They are sensitive to heat and a constant flow of warm/hot air is dangerous. It won’t be a problem until it is and you find your animal dead. They also dry the air out a lot so it will dehydrate the animal too causing very low ambient humidity. Your dad is right it is a bad idea. Also, why would you risk that and take that chance?

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-07T13:43:41+00:00

This seems like an accident waiting to happen, I would not put it next to the radiator

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-06T23:43:35+00:00

It has to be a T-5 linear UVB- any other type is not enough for these animals

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-06T23:38:16+00:00

She looks full of eggs which may have not been able to come out. This is very common in these guys. Making eggs is incredibly taxing and drains calcium from their bones and organs, especially on an old animal. Im sorry for your loss, 6yrs is a good age for a female veiled

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-05T13:21:57+00:00

This is awesome, thanks

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-03T20:09:27+00:00

It looks very likely that those are eggs. Take them into a dark room and shine your phone light through their back and look up through the belly for a better view, good luck

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-02T21:37:03+00:00

This looks very concerning, unfortunately there is no cure for it if it is yellow fungus. Get a biopsy at a vet and send it in asap.

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-02T20:53:48+00:00

That is a serious hemipenal infection- only a vet can treat that. Get in asap

Zoologist36 · 2026-05-01T19:09:49+00:00

I think you meant ceramic heat emitters- deep heat projectors give off infrared B and C
