henward Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 can i put my beardie outside? to see the winter and summer through? its currently in the garage, during summer i put a warming bulb but during the cooler months, i turn it off to give it a more natural seasonal change can i put this creature outside? i just purchased an awesome flexarium (im curently in south africa) and its half price here to what the cheapest is in nz, i bought an enclosure 6 foot x 76 x 76, its huge! i wanna put it outside so the animal can get natural sunlight and stuff. summer i know it will be ok but winter? do you think i should risk it? does anyone here put their bearded outside int he cold? also, what sort of hiding place and stuff i put in it so it can keep itself warmish during cold nights?

Varanophile Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 summer yes, winter no. cold is number one reason, wet is number two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David R Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I guess you could make a dry insulated house for it to brumate in, and have a heat lamp running to keep the temp up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varanophile Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I guess you could make a dry insulated house for it to brumate in, and have a heat lamp running to keep the temp up? been there, but the general humidity of the air- today is a good example- is too much of a worry in terms of respiratory disease. best to keep outdoors then bring in and brumate inside. Cost of power is still nil, as they are not heated whilst brumating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
