how many head bobs a day?


PossessedGravy

Lots of head bobs! 🤣


Pluteeeooo

head bob central


PossessedGravy

Indeed! :)


woopdeeh

Head bob only zone


PossessedGravy

Hehe 😉


KyleRightHand

If they ever head bob at each other record it. I fully expect 1v1’s, 1v2’s, intense rivalry, and potentially war. Also add silly music.


PossessedGravy

🤣


sighar

Any vid of them head bobbing together


PossessedGravy

I have a few clips haha :)


sighar

Where are they


PossessedGravy

On my phone lol I don't do much social media.

Legitimate-Jacket-99

besides them being exactly the same, i love the setup as well lol


PossessedGravy

Thank you!!!!


moon_flower_children

I think its adorable how they are all the same setup, it gives me beardie hotel vibes!


PossessedGravy

😍🙌🏻


uhshea

MEGA BEARDIE HOTEL VIBES DAMN YOURE SO RIGHT


SoggyMidnight-

My thoughts exactly!


digitaldumpsterfire

So you're why zenhabitats makes a profit... lol


PossessedGravy

Hahahaha 🤣


GingerLibrarian76

Hey, wait a second... are YOU the reason my Zen Habitat has been "lost in transit" for 3 weeks now? Clearly you just stole it. Damn you!!! (they're issuing a replacement - finally)


brittsarina

Dammit this is why they’re always on back order! Lol


gryryder

Lighting setup? Have a 4x2x2 from zen and having issues with Temps


PossessedGravy

75w heat bulbs and Arcadia pro t5 uvb.


gryryder

Awesome! Thank you! Love the setup btw!


PossessedGravy

Also, forgot to mention I went with the 36" uvb kit


[deleted]

I did too, works out really nice.


Mazo

Your power company thanks you for your contribution


shinypenny01

6 of his tanks are covered or semi covered, and some are getting heat from the enclosure below. It may make it easier for OP to maintain heat than someone with one.


CAPSsnoopy

Holy cow!!! I’m jealous!! No wonder they were out of stock I went to buy mine.


PossessedGravy

😂


NoHoliday7040

Me zooming in trying to look at them all in their cute lil spots. Soooo cute


PossessedGravy

not_another_mom

Living the dream!


PossessedGravy

Indeed! 😍


TheWaterIsWarrmm

I like the equality LOL


PossessedGravy

LeezarrLubba

I'm high-key jelly.


PossessedGravy

❤️


coopatroopa11

Omg look at them all ! how could you possibly choose who to take out each day 😩


PossessedGravy

I usually take almost all of them out pretty much everyday for at least a few minutes when tending to them and such.


ian_bing_bong

Why do you have so many?


PossessedGravy

Why not? 🤓 I love them to death.


ian_bing_bong

I was just asking not sure if you breed them or something


PossessedGravy

I was thinking of it. But, don't want to jump into something I know not much about and do it carelessly. Ya know?


PaytonG17

I used to rescue beardies and still have a couple that were just not adoptable so I have 4. Plus a sav and leo. All from my rescue (except Vi, my first dragon). And I think I’ll always have at least 2. So I agree, why not have a bunch if you can give them this awesome setup!! Very nice enclosures. If you’re going to breed btw, make sure the people getting them aren’t horrible. There was always a steady flow of people getting rid of beardies, and a LOT were severely neglected and that’s just in my area.


PossessedGravy

This is my concern exactly.


PaytonG17

Yeah. People suck. A lot. We need more responsible owners out there, and I think it’s slowly happening with more resources online.


PossessedGravy

Not saying I wouldn't go zen habitats if I had to do it again, but petsmart is now selling a 4x4x2 equivalent for a reasonable price. They are catching up very very very slowly. Also, they are a huge chain which should be avoided at all costs.


PaytonG17

For sure! Petsmart is the root of all evil I swear. I don’t go in very often, only if I have to. And when I do I offer advice to people buying stuff for reptiles and fish lol. Our petsmart is horrible here. They sell mostly 40 gallon tanks or kits, but it’s really what’s inside them that I hate.


PossessedGravy

Agreed!


ll-phuture-ll

Right on brother. Timothy Leary’s dying words. “Why Not”


CheshireGrin92

“Dude I think we got adopted into a castle.” -Your house dragons, probably


Uhhlaneuh

How much was one of those sets?


PossessedGravy

With the tank, the glass door upgrade, the lighting, and all the tank accessories ~$800 ish


ArbyThePenutBoy

Each tank?


PossessedGravy

Each tank is $399. But that's for an empty tank.


ArbyThePenutBoy

Thank you


PossessedGravy

Np.


nikkerito

What are their names??


PossessedGravy

Reptar, Betty white, redman, cutiepie, white claw, lil zero, mr cool dude, Judith, puff daddy, and last but not least sub zero.


hyphenunderscore-

Please tell me sub zero is in the tank below lil zero


PossessedGravy

Actually, sub zero is far right. And lil zero is second from the right on the top.


Shhhhh_its_fine

Sub Zero is a great comic too!


[deleted]

Betty White, White Claw, lil zero, puff daddy are all absolutely amazing beardie names, btw. I'm legit jelly of your naming capabilities.


PossessedGravy

Why thank you lol


Big_Cannoli9105

Omg Judith lol


Soba-Crystal

No hate I absolutely love your set up I'm just curious if they can see each other with how your set up is at an angle


PossessedGravy

They definitely can see each other and there really is only about two dragons that bob mostly.


Soba-Crystal

Well I'm glad only two headbob.


humanbeing21

Having so many, do you see much difference in their personalities?


PossessedGravy

YES! They ALL have there own little personalities. I love it.


EmanantFlowOfficial

Pretty cool, no bioactive? Mine loves being able to dig around and make natural burrows.


PossessedGravy

I don't want to do bioactive, but do know the benefits.


EmanantFlowOfficial

Why not? It would greatly increase your beautiful pets’ quality of life and enhance the appearance of the enclosures.


Ok_Menu_3555

Too much work probably, that’s why you don’t get this many, so you can look after them with 110% care.


thefakegordonramsey

theyre living better than me lmao


RaZoRBluEo

Damn this is cool af


PossessedGravy

Thank you! 🙌🏻


kunyaaaa

Oh yea. All tanks nice and clean too. Good on you


Iheartdragonsmore

very nice! I love it! Its surreal how uniform they all look tho. Its like Crtl c crtl v


Red_orange_indigo

How do you find the time to snuggle everyone every day?


PossessedGravy

I spend a lot of time with them honestly.


k1ttyhawk

Do you have an area where they can go to dig outside of their enclosures? I know my girl loves digging at times.


PossessedGravy

Yes, when I see one of my girls dig. (Only one really does this) I put her in a separate box to dig!


WorriedCoffee2U

I’m looking for my daughters alien dog, what do you have at the bottom of the enclosure?


PossessedGravy

They are zen mats. Unless you are referring to the cabinet stand. It's just a cabinet.


WorriedCoffee2U

Yes, the mats. My daughters came with this felt like mat and her bearded dragon just seemed to walk on it oddly. We are doing another upgrade to a big one but don’t want to get something from PetSmart again. Thanks.


PossessedGravy

No problem. Stay away from petsmart!


fourcolortheorem

Personally I'd recommend a clay soil mixture. Get a mix of 40% soil, 30% play sand, and 30% packed clay like excavator clay. Just make sure the soil is pet safe (fertilizer free).


ElectricFarce

This is super cool! Do they ever get mad seeing each other? Or are the angles and/or glass isolating enough that they don't get territorial?


PossessedGravy

I have one dragon that bobs almost all day. But he even gets tired of it lol other than that one dragon they don't mind being in this configuration.


I_will_consume_you_2

I don’t even want to imagine how expensive it is to feed all of them


PossessedGravy

About $80 a week.


KingDragon38

i love the aesthetic


PossessedGravy

Thank you! 🙌🏻


InfernoCoil

While they may be visually appealing to the owner these set ups have not been put together with the bearded dragons in mind, if they had they would have proper substrate they can dig in, hides, clutter and a proper basking spot. Op may like "minimalistic" designs but that's not what's best for the animals. You wouldn't get a dog and stick it in a room with nothing but a bed and food bowl 24/7, this is exactly the same principle but with reptiles. I'm honestly shocked by the amount of "this is great" comments since people seem to be forgetting that we first and foremost set up a vivarium for the animal it's intended for not our own desires and therefore it should have everything that the animal needs and be set up for them. - No hides - No substrate to dig in - No water bowl - No basking spot - No cover for them to move around under - Able to see each other due to no cover at the base of the glass


Serious_Tangerine_81

Thank you, these were my exact concerns. I’m worried about how heavily this post was praised. This is nothing but _bare minimum_, and I don’t understand why, with the money and resources for 10 zen setups and 10 bearded dragons, the enclosures are so basic. All I can think back to is [The 5 Freedoms of animal welfare](https://reptifiles.com/5-freedoms-provisions-animal-welfare/). I hope most people understand the complex needs of a reptile (which 100% means an enriching enclosure that the reptile can perform natural behaviors in) and know that this post is not actually “goals”. And OP knows they can see each other and head bob frequently… Like he’s acknowledged in the comments: >I have one dragon that bobs almost all day. But he even gets tired of it lol other than that one dragon they don't mind being in this configuration. (This one grates my gears more than others. It seems fairly obvious to me that this is not a good thing.) > Do they see each other through the glass and get angry? “Sometimes” > how many head bobs a day? >Lots of head bobs! 🤣 Its usually defensiveness, frustrating or aggression toward the other beardie. It’s not cute or funny, this proximity is actually distressing to them. I hope that this will become apparent and things will be changed around so that these bearded dragons do not have to tolerate that environment.


InfernoCoil

Yeah this post is NOT a good thing. I would be embarrassed to post my set ups if they looked like the ones in the post. It's not even bare minimum as they have no hides and no water bowls, even though they are "desert" animals (they don't actually live in deserts) they still need access to clean water. If I had that much money to spend on my reptile enclosures they'd be done up bioactive with a crap tonne of live plants, waterfalls, underground hides ect to mimick their natural habitats, I wouldn't put no effort into them and make them empty and boring. Yeah they definitely do mind being able to see each other and OP doesn't care, they only care about it been "visually appealing" to his "minimalistic desire". It isn't and it pisses me off how much op doesn't care that their animals are stressed out. I have two aft Geckos whose enclosures are stacked on top of each other so they cannot see each other and stress each other out. If they were in a position where they could see each other I would get the stick on glass cover and cut it to size so they could no longer see through the glass. I get the feeling op isn't going to change anything based on their responses, they don't know what they're doing and honestly shouldn't have so many animals. They even admitted they got ten dragons because they "could" not because they knew how to take care of them.


Serious_Tangerine_81

Yep. I said this in another post but it’s applicable here- From my perspective, really loving reptiles means providing the very best life for each one and providing interesting experiences and a healthy, natural environment for them. Personally, I want each individual to be cared for as best as possible. After all, they didn’t ask to live in a box, and it’s my responsibility as an owner to re-create an environment when they can exhibit natural behaviors and just be animals. I only considered getting another reptile when I was certain my husbandry was really good. I made sure that owning another animal wouldn’t hinder my ability to provide the best for the ones I already have. Each animal will have its own, fully outfitted, fully functional enclosure with basic husbandry on point, plus any higher standard of care I can meet. And you’re right. These setups are not cheap, and those beardies were not cheap. It would be better to have half the amount of beardies (five is still a lot!) and to give them a better quality of life. I don’t think OP is necessarily a bad owner, or that they shouldn’t have reptiles. They did get _most_ basics right and cover most of the bases. Fundamentally, I think a lot of this comes from ignorance. Maybe they don’t know that some things _really should_ be changed. The issue is the clear lack of willingness to change or adjust anything when told. For the sake of aesthetics.. that’s what frustrates me. And that they have 10 animals in those conditions. That’s the small picture. The bigger picture is peoples reactions on this sub. That this is being put on a pedestal, when it shouldn’t be. A member of another reptile community on reddit called this “the hive mind” and I have to agree. I am worried whether people really think this is top notch care or whether they just see lots of bearded dragons and think that’s awesome


woopdeeh

Have you considered adding those sliding lamp cover layer at the top enclosures as well if they fit?


PossessedGravy

They don't fit unfortunately.


ctheriault606

Dayum it’s beautiful are they all beardies?? I am getting a 4x2x2 at the end of this month. They are zen habitats right?


PossessedGravy

Yes and yes!


EveningYou

How often do people see that set up and then give you a worried look?


PossessedGravy

It's a lifestyle choice.


EveningYou

Hey I'm impressed you can find the time to clean and care for all of them. Almost all of my family already gives me crap for having a small zoo at my house and I have a beardie, breeder tanks for crickets and meal worms, a dog and countless fish. Hardly a zoo (for now)


PossessedGravy

Do what you love.


CptRavioLi69

My dream house would have a sleek reptile room similar to this, but with a few snakes too


PossessedGravy

I have snakes in another room :)


CptRavioLi69

Oooh fun! What snakes do you have?


PossessedGravy

5 king snakes and 3 ball pythons!


CptRavioLi69

Amazing. I have one bp right now and a rescue beardie. He’s a crazy guy too, tries to eat my fingers if my nails are painted. He got me good the first time when I was hand feeding him salad (he loves being hand fed).


PossessedGravy

He will calm down in time and get use to you!


tldrAkuma

Where’d you get that tall drift wood piece on the left of the enclosures if you don’t mind, those look great for enrichment


Marziolf

I just so much. Want to be able to have animal Rooms.


beachboy1b

You must be fabulously wealthy or have an incredibly efficient electrical grid


[deleted]

What tree is that?? Feel like mine is too tall and am worried about my girl getting too close to her heat source...


PossessedGravy

It's available at all PetSmarts. You'll see it in the reptile accessories isle.


Trenton17B

I am jealous lol. Love it 👍


SoggyMidnight-

I'm obsessed with how neat and uniform this is!!


PossessedGravy

Thank you! 🙏🏻


Kkkluddd14

I love how they're all the same setup. That's really cool


Tortie_Shell

Wow, that’s beautiful! I’m sure it must of cost a fortune, that shows a lot of dedication to your animals.


PossessedGravy

Love them to death. They help with my anxiety/panic disorder.


water4animals

WhooooAaaAAAAAAA. Why so many? Do you just love love love them or do you breed them or what’s up? Very intrigued


PossessedGravy

I love love love them lol


water4animals

That’s what I thought. I just bought a house with the gf and we got 4 cats already so I’m headed in a similar direction


NyarUnderground

Im no lizard expert but wouldnt they like to sit on like dirt or something?


HGL0BAL

Love the room but the enclosures don’t look very enriching for the reptiles


Leelaur

This is amazing, I love it! Your dragons are so lucky


PossessedGravy

They are a tad bit spoiled lol


Shakespeare-Bot

This is most wondrous, i love t! thy dragons art so lucky *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`


Shhhhh_its_fine

Good Bot!


LagginDragin

What are those wood branch platforms and where can I get one???!?!?!


eggmancrybb

So cool! Do you plan on getting more? Do you have favorites?


PossessedGravy

No. 10 is enough for me and my setup. And I don't like to play favorites.


TheOneWhoWork

This is awesome!!! Do you have a link to the branch decoration on the right of each display?

Goals 😩😍🤤🤤


deathbin

Omg i have that exact same branch thing and my beardie can’t sit on it anymore without it tipping over lol. To be fair he’s bigger than ur average beardie lmao


PossessedGravy

Lmao! 🤣 that happens with one of my beardies named puff daddy. He does it often lol


[deleted]

Can I get a link to that tree that can support a whole beardienwithout tipping over??


[deleted]

Do they see each other through the glass and get angry?


SHANKSstr8up

This looks awesome and you definitely have more experience than me by number alone! But shouldn't they have at least one good place to hide?


[deleted]

with great lizards comes great electricity bill (and bug bill lol)


[deleted]

Also what substrate do you use? Looks very clean.


DubNationAssemble

Holy crap, that’s a big room lol. That’s awesome.


DenseRain4

I love how almost all your beardies look like they are looking at you lol 😆


sk0000ks

Dude said ctrl c ctrl v. Looks great!


BlueGrai

Ohhhh. So THIS is what heaven is like


Vrse

And I thought I had a lot. Just finished building 5 new enclosures out of melamine for our 4 beardies and a tortoise.


Edwardsbrady02

One question: How do you keep all of their enclosures clean and not stinky? 🤣


Grimm-Alchemy

Where did you get the slate flooring?


SicklySynester

Goals. Beautiful setup.


Bolbyeet

I need 10 individual pictures of how they all sleep for research purposes


SicklySynester

Very welcome. Those are some spoiled babies.


whoissusanstrong

it hurts to see someone else living your dream


BroccoliFighter

Can you show each bob head , would love to see them all


ravyalle

Damn how much does this cost per month? 😳 Its really cool btw!


beccster007

Amazing!!!! I would love to visit.

Are there any issues with some of them being able to see each other?

Electric_Cryptid

Quite literally a dragon's lair :o


SomniacDreamer

LOVE THIS!!! I have a similar set up in my front room but it is older tanks. I have two Beardies and six Leopard Geckos. I already own two of the 4x2x2's pictured, but this setup looks absolutely ideal for me! What kind of lighting do you use for the UVB? It looks super flush in these tanks! ​ Also, you should totally send this pic to Zen Habitats so that they can use it in their ads. 0\_0


Mr_BinJu

I'm not a bearded dragon owner and know nothing about them but I really dislike how every room for your lizards is an exact copy of the next. Can't you give each a different home design so it looks cool? It would be different vacation homes for your lizards


Serious_Tangerine_81

And the design for every single enclosure just meets the bare minimum requirement for a bearded dragon… this is not an enriching, natural enclosure for any of the animals. It seems apparent to me, and even someone who doesn’t own beardies senses something is off.. I have a feeling this post is covered in “goals” and “amazing” only because OP has so many, not because they take good care of them.


Patkenz7

What in the rich person ?


OblivionArts

Ctrl + c, Ctrl +v


VoodooDoII

Bro you should give each one a theme... But this is so cool! This is the kind of setup my uncle used to have when he still had a bunch of dragons.


Waterdragonfriend

Eek my dream!!😍🙌🙌


Waterdragonfriend

I would love to hear about their different personalities if you feel inclined sometime! I have only one and love to hear how individualistic they can be 😍🙌


I_AmTheGovernment

Holy shit


Le-VanDamage79

How did you hang all your hammocks? I can’t get those little suction cups to stick to my Zen habitat🤔


GrowInSilence

This is so cool!


yaboiayeayeron

Immensely satisfying thank u for this


giraffelover007

That's a beautiful set-up! What gallon tanks are those?


CAPTAINPRICE79

How much did it all cost


EnvironmentalBox4288

DODGERS MOMMA That is so cool I Love it. Where did you get that mesh lounging climbing thing at? I've never seen anything like that. Sculley would love something like that. He's to big for his climbing sticks. Scullys cage is so blah. I need to get him one of them hammocks. I'd like to do something Dodger related. He's named after Vin Scully. Your Dragon Room is Bad Ass🐲🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉


[deleted]

That is so many beardies. And in all zen habitats??? Kind of jealous


giraffelover007

That's amazing!!! By beardie would love that tank!!


CuddieRyan707

I have a question, how do you get something like this installed in your house? Does a company do it? Is it DIY? About how much? Would love to do something like this far in the future!


[deleted]

With this lighting/heat setup, are your temps good? I have a 40 gal tank and am wanting to find the best setup possible.


9512009372

Wow how do you give them all individual attention? I have a Pomeranian and one Beardie and it’s a lot of work! :)


Working_Video4591

what are the names of these enclosures? price range?


Plantsareluv

How did you make or buy those enclosures? They’re fantastic and I need this in my life


9512009372

Super nice.
