Too funny! I’m hoping to save his first few sheds as souvenirs so i’m kinda hoping that doesn’t happen :P

maybe he will stop squishing it and grow up to be a Poocasso and paint the walls with it instead. ;)

thanks! today his yellow patterning is very visible compared to precious days! although my goal was finding a super clean white BEL, i’m happy with this guy! such a sweetie so far and the yellow markings are growing on me!

Also, to confirm. I have his humidity at 65ish-75ish%. His hotspot from a UTH is 93° F on the floor of the exo terra. Gradient up to 87° if he doesn’t burrow under the substrate at all. Cool side gets down to 76° at a minimum, and will only get warmer as i live in AZ.
I have a CHE to achieve the ambient temps hooked up to a Herpstat 2 along with the UTH hooked up to it as well.
Have a hide on both ends of the tank, water dish partially on the heat pad to create more humidity. And artificial plants to create some clutter.
Sound right?
I’m one of those paranoid keepers if y’all can’t tell yet haha!
Re: New to this forum, Got a BEL, Shed question
Very cute new addition...congratulations and welcome!
The only thing I would change on your setup is to drop the uth to no more than 90F. They will burrow down to the heat source, so you want to be sure that it is no more than the high end of their range. If it’s too warm they often won’t use the warm end, prefering to stay too cool than uncomfortably warm. You also don’t want the uth to get hot enough to burn them, so kudos for having everything on a good thermostat. :clap:
