Lighting/Hidebox Concern
Hi, everyone, I just got my BP a few days ago for my b-day. I've invested alot of money so that my husbandry is on par, as far as temperature, humidity, etc...is concerned. My one main concern however is lighting. I have a night shift job, so I use black out curtains, so other than whenever I have my lights on, its dark in my room. I don't want to mess up my BP's biorhythms, so what can I do to make sure he's getting a consistent amount of light. I bought a red light, black, and a regular basking one, even though I know they don't bask. If I leave my lights on for too long, they drain the humidity and raise the temperature. So am I too concerned about lighting, and should I just provide whatever amount of light I can, regardless if its inconsistent, or what should I do?
Final question, I bought a pretty big water dish for him, to do whatever in, but there isn't enough room to put another hide box. I know its not preferential, but he seems to stay on the warm side in his hide box anyways. I've only seem him come out once and that was in an attempt to get out of the cage.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you
