    1. ok ive installed an acu-rite temp and humidity reader, my basking 90.3, my overall temp 83.1, and my humidity 63%. now here is the ????? should the cold side of the tank be the same as the overall temp or should it be colder???

    The cooler side can be in the mid 80's it sounds good though thus far. As long as there's a warm side you should be good.

    Yup, your setup sounds just about perfect. The cool side surface temps are going to be pretty well exactly the same as the air temps, and those are perfect. :)

    Basicaly the shed when they want no real set time. Our normal has shed twice in 2 months but he is growing real fast. What I have read says 3-4 times a year as an adult. You get your little guy to eat yet?
