    Ok, I have a few questions about heat and humitity;

    1. Can a single human heat pad provide enough heat for a bp?

    2. How can I create a warm and cool saide of the tank?

    3. Can the humifier in the Do It Yourself section provide suitable humitity for a bp?

    3- Yes it can.

    1 - yes imho, IF the room it is kept in is fairly warm (75ish) (also depends on the type of enclosure) If you have an aquarium style enclosure I would say no.

    2 - put your heating pad and small watt light bulb on one side of the tank

    3 - yes it can. (many other methods as well depending on the type of enclosure you use)


    Please experiment to get the right temps/humidity before puting your bp in the enclosure (you probably already knew that but better safe then sorry)

    So what type of enclosure do you have?
    I just made a sterilite enclosure, and they hold humidity very well. I have a medium sized water dish and it puts my humidity at 65%

    1. Yes.
    2. Only provide heat on one side.
    3. Yes, but there are a lot of ways to do this.
