Hey Name is Sythes.
I have got a 3 yr female BP. 2 weeks ago from a private party the gave me a 40 gal glass tank
a zilla heating pad, heat lamp, and a hide.
I have been tweaking the tanks temp and humidity.
I eco earth coconut lose bedding mixed with some aspen bedding. I have moss that i wet to keep humidity up. stays around 40 to 60%
I am concerned about the heating pad i have a digital thermometer with probe where the heating pad is and reading at 96.4 at this moment. Is that to high or what should i do because i don't want to burn the belly.
The lighting is my other concern I have read and read and read what not to use what to use and just cant get a real answer . I have been switching bulbs from a day time basking bulb 60W to a nighttime incandescent bulb 60w at night. Could i just use the nighttime bulb 24/7 instead of changing or should i just continue.
I do have a screen top I have half of it saran wrapped on the back side of the screen because it open that has the fold in the middle. to help with humidity.
Can i need help making sure. I doing everything right to keep her healthy and happy. She is eating frozen small rats just fine and is shedding in one whole piece.
Thank you
