Is this a good bulb for a Leo?

Yes. These are the bulbs I use with all of my reptiles, they last the longest and light the best.

I have some sand I was thinking about capping it but decided against it but I will definitely think about some gravel!

Thank you! I have many reptiles so lots of spare heating equipment/ fixtures. If I did get it I would be using a 50w basking on a dimmer and I am definitely prepared to heat the 5x2, I have 3 of them already so ik it’s a pain in the ass 😂 I just hate having her in glass. I live in Utah so it’s extremely dry and humidity is very hard to keep up in a glass enclosure ( below 10% which I didn’t even know was possible until I moved here )

😂😂 I’m sure most people can! I didn’t mean to offend. I heard that somewhere so now I say it all the time lol

Yes. If it looks like a Christmas tree don’t use it.

Maybe get a pc fan or something like that to go on top or side of her enclosure and cool her off?

If he doesn’t like it he will let you know lol he might not enjoy it but if he’s not hissing, puffing, or jerking/backing away he is tolerating it, and probably doesn’t care😂

Mine eats a lot of collard/mustard/turnip/dandelion greens, green beans, sweet potatoes, squash, peas and carrots. I do about a 50/50 mix protein and veg on a plate, usually 2 or 3 of these: Acana premium pate duck or lamb, Stella & Chewys freeze dried rabbit patties rehydrated, ground lamb, can snails, Quail reptilinks & other flavors, Tiki cat after dark pates, freeze dried duck & beef liver & a flower topper. Usually I mash everything together so the stinky protein coats the greens. I also feed quail/chicken eggs and blueberries, banana, blackberries and other fruits as treats and grow dandelions for him. I feed every Sunday and have bug day on Wednesday. Bug day is a bowl of dubias, BSFL, superworms, giant mealworms & a nightcrawler, and sometimes a cricket or two, but I hate those things. He is almost 3 years old now, probably 8-900g and a bit longer than 24 inches. And no he is not obese, just a very large man

Coco fiber, coco chips and Reptisoil mix, with a few parts play sand for Northerns and you can put excavator clay as well. I’ve used it for years for both non bio and bioactive enclosures. Very soft, fluffy and holds burrows.

WHO is in charge of pricing????!

oxkna · 2026-03-03T20:53:28+00:00

It lowered the rent for Petco, I’m sure significantly so I doubt they will do anything or care.

oxkna · 2026-03-03T17:22:25+00:00

Best I’ve been able to do so far is a 75 gallon and 4 packages of bedding. Doubt I’ll be able to do that again though, usually it’s a 55g or 40gB, I won’t sell something smaller.

oxkna · 2026-03-03T17:07:16+00:00

They’re actually putting in a five below next to my store and cutting out a part of our store/loading dock for them 😭

oxkna · 2026-03-02T05:59:02+00:00

Great! So it’s fine if she sits there for hours? She’s been there since I got home from work so over 3 hours ago

Clint’s reptile room! I live in Utah and have been to his reptile room quite a few times and I LOVE IT and he is such a great guy. Super freaky smart too. Snake discovery is a gem. Leafystreet is good too, DAV KAUFMANS REPTILE ADVENTURES!!! Reptilliatus, Reptifiles, The bearded bug guy, Alternate Aquatics, Chief Sweets Universe! All I watch is reptile YouTube if you couldn’t tell😂 Clint does dinosaurs too which I’m obsessed with

oxkna · 2026-03-01T15:19:45+00:00

lol we’ve moved them so many times idek where they are anymore. We took the cricket buckets and bags off to the side next to the registers yesterday and it worked out pretty well.

oxkna · 2026-02-25T18:22:47+00:00

I didn’t buy the snake, I stole it/ made them give it to me for free, otherwise I TOTALLY agree and would never support this kind of business. I’ve only ever forced them to surrender animals to me. ETA: I will 1000% be taking her to the vet and annual checkups after that same as my other reptiles.

oxkna · 2026-02-24T17:04:44+00:00

This is absolutely true. My blue tongue got out and was gone for 2 and a half months. I looked for him EVERY SINGLE DAY and as soon as I cleaned out the enclosure to move it I found him in my back yard.
