Water monitor regurge :(
Okay so i ahve had my baby water (Monet) for what, 3 weeks maybe a month now and everything has been going great, until this afternoon when i got home from school. As i was checking his cage i noticed the fuzzie i gave him this morning was floating in his water dish, which made me mad at first, thinking stupid mouse ran into the water dish but then i remembered he took it off of tongs for me this morning. So i came to the conclusion he gurged sometime this morning/early afternoon. Ive been logging his temps and everything the last week and here is how his enclosure breaks down.
These are all ambient air temps
"Cold side" is 81-83* the variance is from day night temps in my room itself.
Middle of the cage, which is under no lights is 84-87*
"Hot side" is 90*
The basking spots are as fallows.
He has a 3 level "Retes stack" measure with temp gun
top level, no holes in middle of wood is 128-131*
middle level, hole in direct middle for movement through the stacks 110-114
bottom level, which is subsrate is kept at an even 100* using a heating pad.
Humidity is between 55-70%, i mist the cage one every morning before i go out for the day.
His diet consists of whole rodents fed daily, depending on size 2 a day. And a lean ground turkey/bonemeal/multivitamin mix twice a week. As many super worms, crickets or roaches as i have put in there he has never touched one so at least i wont ever have to worry about him making the switch from bugs to mice/rats?
the only thing i can think of is that the fuzzie was too big? anyone wanna help me weigh in? He was chekced this past weekend for parasites and was completely clean and given a 100% healthy report.
