two things,

lighting:i have a uvb bulb andna blue daylight bulb and a black nighttime bulb, the blue bulb gets really hot so should i put it above the basking area or should i put the uvb there? should i not use the blue bulb?

feeding: i got the dragon yesterday and he loves being handled he trys to get out of the cage for me to hold him when he sees me, but he ate 1 cricket yesterday, i tried a few hours later, he didn't eat. so i didn't worry about it. i tried feeding him today and he didnt eat. i even went to petsmart and got small mealworms instead of crickets. i tried holding them infront of his face, putting them i a bowl in his cage, he won't eat them. i know he is healthy though because he poops,pees and has a clear vent area. please help?

so LLLreptile has this special where they are selling a baby iguana, and a 65 gallon screen cage for 169.99, i am going to get this. my question is how long will it be able to live in the 65 gallon cage and how long will it take to reach 6 feet? the baby iguanas that come with the cage are 8-11 inches. i am very well aware i will build it a pin when it grows up.

i am looking for a reptile breeder in Texas that sells rosy boas, kenyan sand boa's or MAYBE bearded dragon. but mainly the two snakes. anybody know any? i have checked kindsnake.com classifieds and they have one in houston but are there any any the dallas/rockwall area?

what reptiles are prohibited in texas?

so as you know i dont like leos beardies corn snakes ball pythons king snakes or milksnakes water dragons crested geckos carpet pythons. so dont reccomend them. one of the reasons is everyone has them and i just dont like them. im kind of a beginner. i have had various toads and crabs... so my conclusion is columbian red tailed boas or agrentine b & w tegu. what is better? i am willing to build a custom cage and i do know i will probably pay 500-600 dollars. thanks in advance

sorry guys this will be a long one... im looking at reptiles and the beginner ones to not interested me, i do not like bearded dragons, cornsnakes, leopard geckos, ball pythons,crested geckos, king snakes or milk snakes, blue tounge skinks or water dragons. you could consider me as a beginner, although i have been succesfull with various crabs and fire bellied toads, so i need some suggestions on what reptiles i should get. thanks in advance, defilex

im kind-of a beginner with reptiles, i had a fire bellied toad and a hermit crab, my first lizard was veiled chameleon (bad choice) and im looking at savannah monitors. are they a good choice for first time monitors?for a semi beginner? i'm not interested in green anoles bearded dragons blue tounge skinks leopard geckos crested geckos corn snakes king snakes ball pythons water dragons or milk snakes. SO please do not suggest them. if there is a better monitor put the monitors name and if possible a care sheet or a link to a care sheet. thanks in advance

i am looking at pet monitors, i can tame them, i am very aware i will probably pay 500 or more dollars and extra money on food, im kind-of a begginer had a fire bellied toad, started out with veiled chameleon(bad choice) i had a hermit crab and a regular crab. and i was wondering what is the best monitor for begginers, im not interested in green anoles bearded dragons blue tounge skinks leopard geckos crested geckos corn snakes king snakes ball pythons water dragons, i want a monitor please include the monitors name and a care sheet or link to care sheet if possible. i would like to handle it but i can settle for 1-2 times a week.thanks in advance, defilex

im thinking of buying a snake off of lllreptile and wondering if they would ship to texas because it could be 100-105 degrees, would the snake still be alive when it arrived? and what is the best for begginers corn snakes, or ball pythons

im considering getting a tarantula as a pet, i understand you can't handle it, but what is the best tarantula for begginers and also is there any that don't shoot their hair? if so what species

im kind-of a begginer to reptiles, and i want to get a tegu or monitor. size and money do not matter, but what better for begginers, i want more of a tame lizard. ive seen tame tegus and monitors and tegus will rome around you're room which i like, i dont like bearded dragons or leopard geckos so dont say those

also what kind of tegu or monitor

money is not an issue, i just dont want to spend 400 dollars and have it die in 2 months...
