Q: Bathing your dragon once a week will help keep it hydrated and also aid in shedding.  Bathwater should be warm on your wrist and not hot, much like Bathwater for a small child. Make the water only as deep as your dragon's chest, or half-way up their front arms. Fill the tub until the water reaches the second knuckle on your index finger for adults and the first knuckle for the juveniles. Never leave your Bearded Dragon unattended in the bath - accidents only take a second to happen. It's a good idea to disinfect your tub when the bath is over because dragons will often defecate in the water. Use a 1:10 solution of bleach and water. You'll need to clean their enclosure, as well as the food and water bowls, once a week.  Mix a 1:10 solution of bleach and water in a spray bottle. Remove your beardie from the cage. Have someone hold it, or place it in a safe enclosure. Use hot, soapy water and a clean rag to wipe away any dirt or feces. Next, spray the bleach solution across the entire surface of what you are cleaning until it is soaked and let it sit for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, scrub the surface with a rag or paper towel, making sure any old food or feces is removed. Rinse all surfaces repeatedly with water until you can no longer smell bleach. If you still smell bleach rinse again. Hand washing is very important when owning any reptile. Washing your hands before and after handling your dragon will help keep you and your new pet healthy. If you wash your hands before handling, you reduce the risk of passing anything on to your dragon. Washing your hands after handling greatly reduces the risk to you of contracting Salmonella. The risks of getting this are very slim to begin with, but hand-washing will even further reduce them. Your chances of contracting Salmonella from the food you eat are greater than your chances of getting it from your dragon. Because bearded dragons may carry Salmonella, use a separate sponge to clean their food and water bowl, supervise children when handling them, and don't let them crawl around the kitchen. Also, avoid kissing your beardie, no matter how much you love it.
A: Provide baths. Keep their environment clean. Keep yourself clean.

Q: If you are well prepared, you may have the ability to post bail before even going back to jail. For example, in New York, bail can be posted at the court so long as it is done with cash. In Manhattan, there is a program that allows defendants to post bail using credit cards in some circumstances. In this case, you will still need to post bail using your own assets, using friend and family assets, or using the services of a bail bondsmen. The only difference between posting bail at the courthouse and posting bail in jail is the location you make the required payment. After your bail hearing where your bail amount was set, you will be back in jail and you will be afforded the opportunity to post bail if you are able. While in jail, your first option for posting bail is to use your own assets. While this may seem straightforward, due to the fact you are in jail, it can often be difficult to access those personal assets. In New York, city jails will accept bail payments in the form of cash and sometimes checks. In addition, New York jails allow you to post bail through your jail account.  If you are using cash or check, you will need to have a friend or family member collect the bail money for you and bring it to the jail where you are being held. If you are using a jail account, you will need to contact someone with access to your money and have them transfer it into your jail account. For example, if the amount of your bail is $10,000, you can call a friend and ask them to bring the $10,000 cash you have under your bed. When your friend brings this money to the appropriate location, you will be released from jail. In some circumstances, you may be able to pledge property (i.e., use your property as collateral) in order to post bail. If you are able to do this, your property will be recorded with a lien and, if you fail to meet the requirements necessary to get your payment back, your property may be seized and sold. If you use property to satisfy bail, the property will generally have to be worth about 250% of the amount of bail. Again, you will have to arrange for this from jail, so it is going to be necessary to invoke the help of friends in family in order to successfully pledge property in order to make bail. Depending on the amount of bail required, you may be able to use anything from a vehicle to a home to satisfy a bail requirement. For example, if your bail is $100,000, you may offer your home as collateral in order to post bail. In this case, a lien will be recorded on your property and if you do not show up for court, the state may foreclose on your home and sell and collect the proceeds. If you cannot afford to post bail on your own, you may have to call friends and family to ask for their help. If this is the case, your friends and family will have to pay bail in the same manner as if you were paying with your own assets. The only difference is the source of the money or property.  When you call your friends and family to ask for their help, be sure you give them detailed instructions on how to post bail. This includes telling them the amount of bail, the required method of payment, where it can be processed, and when it needs to be done by. Be sure you tell your friends and family about the commitment they are making by helping you with bail. Make sure they understand the risks involved, which includes the possibility of losing their assets they provide to you. If you cannot afford bail, or if you do not have easy access to the required funds, you may choose to use the services of a bail bondsman in order to post bail. However, some states, including Illinois and Kentucky, do not allow bail bondsmen to do business. In these states, you will usually be allowed to post a percentage of bail yourself in order to be released.  With a bail bond, the bondsman agrees to pay the full amount of bail to the court if you do not show up to court as required.  In exchange for posting a bond, the bondsman collects a non-refundable fee from you. This fee is generally about 10% of the amount of bail.  Also, there is usually a third party contract, which requires a friend or family member to pay the bond if you do not show up to court.  For example, assume your bail is set at $100,000. If you go to a bail bondsman, you will be required to provide them with 10% of the bail, which would be $10,000. Once you pay the bail bondsman the $10,000, and once the bail bondsman receives a promise from a third party to pay them any amount they have to pay the court, the bail bondsman will post bail and you will be released.
A: Pay bail immediately after the bail hearing, before going back to jail. Post bail using your own assets. Ask your family and friends to help. Pay bail through a bail bondsman.

Q: No matter what kind of beads, pendants, or discs you made, they must be finished with baking. This will set the clay so that the beads maintain the shapes and designs you’ve created. Always preheat your oven before baking, and follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding baking times and temperatures. To bake your beads, you can:  Arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the beads on a length of firm, straight wire. Then, suspend the wire from an oven-safe baking dish and bake the beads like that.  Once your baking time is up, remove the beads from the oven and allow them to cool completely before handling them. In case you chose not to poke holes in your beads before baking, now’s the time to create the holes. Work with each bead individually. Hold a bead steady on a hard surface with your thumb and forefinger. With your other hand, use the drill to carefully drill a hole through the center of the bead.
A:
Bake them. Drill holes.
