I've just been through my first shedding experience, I believe it was pretty successful. He shed all in one piece except for the very tip of his tail, maybe 1/8 worth of skin left on. We removed it with a damp cloth. Is this enough to worry about?

Also, I am waiting for my herpstat to be delivered from spyderrobotics, hopefully it should be here soon. Right now I have 2 UTH's running with ReptiTemp 500Rs. The cool side stays between 80 and 82 on top of the substrate, 84 on the glass. The hot side is not very stable and keeps getting too hot when the UTH turns on. I've turned it down but not most of the time, the temp on the warm side is 84-87 on the substrate. Is it ok to keep the temps this low on the warm side until the herpstat gets here?

And he hasn't eaten since before the shed so I'm planning on feeding him tonight, are his temps warm enough for that or should I wait until the herpstat is here and the warm side is at the right temp?

Thanks for any help
