In truth, hot rocks are NOT recommended for most lizards especially Bearded Dragons. The reason for this is that Bearded Dragons stomach and undersides are not sensitive to heat and they do not realise when they are being burned. This can result in some really nasty injuries. There have also been cases of hot rocks malfunctioning and causing serious damage to reptiles and enclosures. For heat it's best to rely on basking bulbs and if necessary a heat mat. Keep the heat mat underneath the OUTSIDE of the viv to prevent any accidents!
