Roe progression thread!

[dakski]

Ok, a lot here! So, the mice are 10-11 grams! Woahhh they are hoppers! I ordered fuzzys I swear! Sorry for arguing, I should've weighed them! Should I keep feeding her them? If your 80g boas will take them, should Roe be able to? Again, there was no big bulge on her.



I was so worried! I've checked temps all twice a day now, and thankfully its stayed 87°F-88°F on the UTH. Everything is duct taped now, hopefully no more loose probes! I'm glad your snakes was okay



As for temps, I got that all down. Idek why I thought those low 70's temps were OK! But yes, her temps now are:
Hot side: 90°F
Ambient: about 84°F
Cool side: 81°F

She's all good now, sleeping in her hot hide as we speak




So, here's what I do for my balls:
Geno: All light go out
May: White light goes out, low blue light comes on

It only drops their temps 3°F-4°F.

But for Roe, I think I have to keep something on! For example, last night when I put in the blue bulb, there was a burning smell. I immediately unplugged it! I let it sit, but I was so tired. I got back at like 3:00 am, and was exhausted! So I just turned her dimmer down so there was heat, but low. Only to find this morning, her temp had dropped into the low 70's! I need the blue night. (Her temps are back to normal this morning)




I hope this answers some questions!

I would go with CHE. Separate heat from light.

Didn’t know the low red light would bother them. Thanks Cloudtheboa.

If if you want light during the day, either use room light or get a small flourescent bulb/strip.

Dark at night is good.

I would get smaller mice.
