just make sure i'm clear on it, I need to purchase a thermostat to measure the temp of the heat mat as well as a thermometer to measure the temp of the tank.
current temp gague is hovering around 70F so i'm thinking about using the same heat lamp I used for my bearded dragons. Also, my humidity gauge usually shows around or above 60 without misting (I do it anyway). Does this seem right?
analog gauges are crap. Invest in a digital one. You'll probably find your temperatures and humidity are WAY off
Using coconut fiber substrate for the bedding, have it at about an inch right now I should probably put in another inch worth.
an inch should be fine. I wouldn't add more
Does he need any sort of log in the cage? I would buy one from petco, but they are really overpriced and I'm on a budget right now.
logs are terrible as hides. Bps need security and a hide with only one entrance
last question is based on the last picture I posted, does it look like he will ever grow into that big hide?
if it was a female, maybe. I doubt a male would get large enough to use that
thanks again
