Question
Hello I just want to know if newspaper is good substrate for bearded dragons. Most people recommend it but I don't know. Will the ink on the newspaper hurt my lizzys. Thank you.  

Answer
Hello Beck, newspaper is one of the safest substrates that you can use. Along with paper towels. The ink is fine and wont harm him. Remember to replace it every couple days. When it looks dirty. kitchen tiles also work really well along with vinyl flooring. Good luck, hope I helped.
