Great effort Rick

I for one absolutely advocate a naturalistic approach that actually takes the information we have about that species range into full account!

Thanks to the both of you for the info.

As beardies are so wide spread now I think more people should be made aware of it's natural habitat and try to adapt they way they are kept to better suit there needs.

Ban the bark chips! Scrap the sand!

That's really great thanks - it's really put my mind at rest. George used to have a water bowl when she was a baby but never went near it so I took it out and she hasn't had one since. I do spray her veggies and occasionally, she will take some diluted apple juice from a syringe but I still worry about her not getting enough fluid.

I didn't read anything about them living in a 4 x 2 foot box in their natural environment.

Anyway, when my Beardie asks for a can of coke........what am I supposed to say?
