bearded dragons

I like that Imagitarium Terrestial Tan Reptile Carpet its beautiful with all the different colors into one carpet. the carpet reminds me of Dip N Dots ice cream and the best natural environment is
Landscaping, "Furniture," and Plants
Your Bearded Dragon will enjoy an assortment of branches for climbing and basking. Make sure branches are secure, of various sizes, and free of pitch and sap - oak works very well. The branches should be at least as wide as your Bearded Dragon to ensure your pet's comfort and safety. Boards covered with indoor/outdoor carpet also make good climbing posts. Flat-bottomed, smooth rocks are also a welcome addition to your dragon's habitat, because they can help wear down toenails, which in captivity, must be clipped often. Your dragon will also enjoy having a place to hide. Whether you use an empty cardboard box, cardboard tube, or flower pot, the hiding place should provide a snug fit and should be located high in the enclosure. If your Bearded Dragon does not use its hiding place, try a different one or move it to a different location within the enclosure.

Plants are a beneficial addition to your dragon's home. In addition to providing humidity, shade, and a sense of security, they also beautify the enclosure. Be sure the plants you choose are nontoxic. Dracaena, Ficus benjamina, and hibiscus are all good choices. Be sure the plants have not been treated with pesticides and the potting soil does not contain vermiculite, pesticides, fertilizer, or wetting agents. Wash real plants with a water spray and water them thoroughly several times to the point where water runs out of the bottom of the pot to help remove any toxic chemicals that may be present. It's also a good idea to keep new live plants in a different part of your house for a while before putting them in your dragon's enclosure.

How to Create Ideal Bearded Dragon Habitat
 
That's great information, gets me thinking on whether I should use plants or not. I made a climby thing for him, it's made of cardboard, and on top is a tin lid to absorb heat better. Eventually I hope to get him a nice basking rock.
 
plants are nice and they add to a more natural habitat. that was nice of you i bet he enjoys climbing. cardboard is cheap and works well too. i would buy you the basking rock if we lived closer :)
 
Aww, it's okay, my parents can buy it haha.
Or I can just find one at the park.
