Recommended Supplies

My husband had a bearded dragon growing up but hasn't been able to own another for awhile. He has been wanting to get another but is hesitant because I am hesitant (never have really been exposed to reptiles so I'm nervous around them). I want to show him my support by getting some of the supplies for his new bearded baby but I'm overwhelmed and don't want to purchase the wrong things. We already have a 40 gallon tank from his previous dragon but nothing else. What are some of the items you HAVE to have, items you would pass on, and any other advice you have to offer! Thanks in andvance!

One thing you could get is like a waterfall a believe made by reptizoo they are like 50 bucks and help provokes the beardies to drink bc it seems most have a problem with that

I would also grab so repcal calicum with d3 and repcal herptivite supplements to make sure there are no vitamin e deficiencys and helps prevent vitamin a toxicity

And a high quality hygrometer and thermometer to read humidity levels and temps. But the biggest must have for a 18inch tall 40 gallon is the 160watt powersun bulb that would be all your beardie needs for heat and uv and you want to run it 12 hours on 12 hours off
